This silver coloured gate is a great protection against robbers. My parents house have similar gate - strangers will find it difficult to open this type of gate even though the lock is removed!
I've been traveling alone since late last year. I truly enjoyed my solo exploration to places of interest in Malaysia. Some people might say this is a lonely and boring one man trip. But to me, traveling alone is simply a BLISS! I have complete FREEDOM spending my time discovering places and taking photos.
Overall, Malacca is a great place to visit.
a) The people are NICE and COURTEOUS.
b) The Baba and Nyonya food is DELICIOUS.
c) The Malacca's ICE-CENDOL is SWEET & TASTY (thanks to Sharon!)
d) The buildings are UNIQUE.
e) Places of interests easily accesible by foot + lots of buses to move around different districts in Malacca. (thanks to Sharon!)
f) The guesthouse is COMFY and
g) Oh Yeah! I FEEL GOOD!
My next destination will be Perak, Malaysia.
