Malacca, dubbed "The Historic State". It is located in the southern region of the Malay Peninsula, next to the Straits of Malacca. The capital is Malacca City, which is 148 km south east of Kuala Lumpur. This historical city centre has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 7 July 2008.                                                                                                            

The site where the city of Malacca stands today was the center of Malaccan history. It was the capital of the Malacca Sultanate and was the centre of the Malay world in the 15th and the 16th century after the Malays moved over from Sumatra and was the most prosperous Entrepôt and city of the Malay Archipelago before it fell to the hand of Portuguese in 1511. Centuries of colonization by the Portuguese, Dutch and the British as well as development of Straits Chinese (Peranakan) culture have influenced the architecture of the town, notably the Portuguese A Famosa, Dutch Stadthuys, and the Dutch, Chinese and British influenced traditional town houses.                                                                                                    

Take a step back in time and see where it all began. The Historical City will provide an insight into the glorious past of the Malacca Sultanate.
