Dec 2022, A quick trip at the end 2022 to Malacca Malaysia. A small city on the coast just south of where we are staying now in Kuala Lumpur. Malacca is also spelled Melaka and has a history as an early trading port and first occupied by Portugal in 1641, then it changed to the Dutch and finaly to the UK until 1957. So it has this very mixed vibe of historical architecture and as of late a city that depends a lot of tourism stuggling as many places in the post covid world. You will see some great street art along the river along with shuttered shops and homes a real mix and interesting to photograph. We visited historic homes, local eateries along with modern speak easies complete with bras hanging above the bar. Its mix of everything and trust me the beef & pork noodles are fantastic : )
