The 7 Biggest Cultural Site in Malacca City

Localbiz Cover

Unfortunately, the displays inside suffer from the same outdated methods seen in other Melaka museums. The info is much better organized, but the mannequins are sometimes in strange poses, there’s no interactive displays in this digital age, and throughout various museums here, the same few stories and facts are presented repeatedly. There’s more to Malaysian history and we’d like to see it!

Lovely building, but the displays and interpretation could do with an update. It’s like walking into a museum of the 80s with its dusty dioramas. The garden needs some looking after – the landscaping would have been nice once upon a time but it’s fallen into disrepair with broken bridges and upended paths. One thing to be aware of is they kick you out at 12pm “to pray”. They told us we could return at 2.15pm when it reopens, but it would have been nice to have been told about this impending closure when we bought our tickets at 11.30am. I think the communication and organisation of the museums of Malaka could do with a shake up. Malaka had such an interesting history and it needs to be told.

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.
