Excellent example of an original Melaka trader's house, now been expertly restored- lets you see how these beautiful old houses were built to suit the tropical environment.

A Dutch colonial house has been reconstructed using original materials as much as possible. We learnt about the reconstruction process of the house interior and the layout of the house. Although small, it was very interesting. The guide was busy with other guests while we were there so we went round reading the displays in our own time. Payment is... More

It's good to see such a great example of restoration of one of the old shop houses in this town. They are doing a good job here, and need the support of those who appreciate their work. There's a good selection of publications available too.

This simple shop house is one of the few that has been preserved and restored to its original state to give a glimpse of what life was like in old Melaka. It only takes half an hour to visit, but is free (donations welcomed) and if you are interested in old buildings then this is worth visiting, just a few... More
