I will be travelling from Kuala Lumpur by car. Where do I park to take the hop-in hop-off bus, how long will it take to see the city and what are the places we can see by travelling in this bus.
You can park at Hang Tuah Mall to start it. the hop-on hop off bus in Melaka is call Panorama Melaka Bus and Red Double Decker Bus. The Panorama Bus route has more stopping point than the red bus.
For details you can look at this website:

Intermarriage between early Chinese settler and Malays resulted in the unique Baba Nyonya culture..... here we can learn more about the culture. The traditional cloths of Baba Nyonya.... i like it so much! not like Chinese cloths or Malays...
At the front of the church ruins you will see lots of people looking at this statue and all children will ask why 'one had lost'!!!
The body was placed in a new coffin and taken back to Goa. The Pope canonized Francis Xavier in 1614, but only upon condition that Francis' right arm be brought to Rome. Legend had it that when the arm was severed, blood flowed as freely as before.

Now, you might wonder who was responsible for the vicious war I told you about right? Well, let me just say that the Dutch trading company , the East Indies Company or the Verenigde Oostindische Compagnie (VOC) had a large say in this. At that time, VOC was so powerful that she was allowed to wage wars and to make treaties with foreign princes! So Melaka was no exempt. Here's the VOC insignia, look at it carefully and read on...
Jonker Walk, is where the most interesting shopping activities take place. The street contains every imaginable trades: spirits importers, hairdresing salons, wooden shoe stores, apothecaries with Chinese herbs on display, sign printers, an acupuncture clinic, several furniture factories, etc. There is also a combination craft shop and restaurant with Peranakan ambience.
You will find treasures such as ornate oil lamps, opium beds, altar stands, Victorian clocks and early gramophones in the antique shops of Jonker Walk.
After a tired hunt of antiques, why not rest your feets at one of the shops (No.88) which offers the best dessert and chendol.
