 Photo of the week   Melaka

I spent a day in Melaka before I left Malaysia to break up the journey between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore. Melaka is a world heritage listed town due to its importance as a port and because of the well preserved colonial buildings. Melaka has influences from India, China and Europe due to the origins of the people that once lived there. It is certainly a very nice town to wander around.
