    I was too early for this. The museum was not opened and I can only took the Cheng Ho statue from the back outside the fence.

    However, this museum is a new museum. It is completed and opened to the public only from this year.

    Baba-Nyonya Heritage
    Museum, Melaka
    by Rodan44
    The Baba-Nyonya Heritage Museum is a private museum located in an actual Peranakan (Straits Chinese) row house on what was once known as "Millionaire's Row" because of its many Dutch colonial era mansions. The house, built in 1896, reflects the distinct East-West character that was popular among the wealthy Peranakans of the day. The museum offers a very personal insight into the Peranakan lifestyle in Melaka at the turn of the century. On display are typical furniture, costumes, alters, carvings, and everyday household items from that time.

    Guided tours are provided during the visit and no photography is allowed.

    Browsing at the Jonker
    Walk Night Market
    by Rodan44
    On weekend evenings Jonker Street is closed to traffic and becomes a lively pedestrian night market. Here you find every conceivable type of souvenir, handicraft, or street food that Melaka has to offer. There are also street performers and a few hip bars. It becomes quite crowded with locals and tourists alike, so much so that it can be difficult to move at times. A definite must-see for any visitor.

    Justin & Father at St.
    Francis Xavier Church
    by Rodan44
    This Gothic church was built by the French priest Father P. Fabre in 1849. It is dedicated to St. Francis Xavier who was an one of the earliest Catholic missionaries active in southeast Asia. The church sits where an old Portuguese mission once stood.

    In the course of his missionary work, Father Fabre developed a close affinity with the Malay people and became a Professor of Malay in Paris. He also wrote several books on Javanese and Malay languages.

    The church is essentially identical to its original construction, except for the portico which was added in 1963. The interior is little changed except for the floor which was cemented in 1920. Today it remains a functioning Catholic Church, holding regular mass services.
