conveniently located at stadhuys area. if you’re driving, you need to park away from the area and walk quite far, need to climb st paul’s hill, so it is advised to just take a grab. its a large area with lots of display. got plenty of seating areas as well. worth a visit.

Replica of Melaka Palace. The origin palace is bigger actually. Management should do a landscape for the forbidden garden. Simple, nice museum. Cool aircond. Suitable for kids. And the rest… remains history…

Fantastic palace design. It does feel like you were at old Melaka ages. The ticket price is consistent with the experience we had. The palace looks well kept, only the front garden looks abandoned for a long time. Overall it is a good place to visit.

    I just visited the Cheng Ho Cultural Museum in Malacca and would give it a 4 out of 5 stars. The museum, dedicated to the life and world voyages of Zheng He, occupies several old shop houses and is the largest in the state. The exhibition, divided into sections like Old Malacca Village and Ship Gallery, is well-explained with big pictures and videos available in several languages.

    However, some exhibits are only in Chinese, the toilets need renovation, and the QR codes didn’t work. Entry is 15 for an adult. Overall, it’s a fascinating visit for anyone interested in Chinese maritime history.

    A hidden treasure trove of information on Admiral Zheng He and the history of Malacca in the 14th century. Numerous exhibits including artifacts, dioramas and information panels, all well maintained. Place has 3 storeys and is much larger than it appears from the outside. Over an hour spent there poring through the exhibits, well worth the RM15 entry fee in my opinion.

    The manager there was friendly and was happy to spare his knowledge and perspectives of that era.

    Great museum with a lot of information and a lot to see. Plenty of information in English, and audio and video information too. Describes an important period of the region’s history. The staff were friendly and helpful too (hi, May!). Recommended.

    A very educational private collection about the history of chinas Admiral Chen Ho and his contributions to Malacca. The level of valuable information is significant and of great interest to any historically interested persons. It however a lot of Reading and with this some time to spend there is recommended. It’s not a ‚look‘ type of museum. But a great collection of facts and data, very compact and presented in Chinese and English! Enjoy your visit!
