Malacca - Malacca

Kristusova cerkev, Melaka

Mesto Malacca (Malajščina: Bandaraya Melaka, in uradno Melaka City) je mesto in glavno mesto zvezna država Malacca, Malezija.

Razumeti

Sodobna Malacca je živahno staro mesto z edinstvenim zgodovinskim in kulturnim ozadjem, ki je bilo prestolnica mogočnega malajskega kraljestva pred kolonialno dobo, pa tudi poznejše portugalske, nizozemske in britanske vladavine. Središče mesta je bilo na seznamu Unesca kot Svetovna dediščina julija 2008, skupaj z Georgetown, Penang.

Zgodovina

Pred prihodom prvega sultana je bila Malacca preprosta ribiška vasica, v kateri so živeli lokalni Malezijci. Sultanat Malacca je ustanovil Parameswara, imenovan tudi Iskandar Shah ali Sri Majara, zadnja raja Singapura (malajsko ime Singapur) po napadu Majapahita leta 1377. Parameswara je leta 1400 našel pot do Malacce, kjer je našel pristanišče, dostopno v vseh letnih časih in na strateško locirani najožji točki ožine Malacca. Ta je kasneje postala Malacca.

Obstaja nekaj zanimivih legend o ustanovitvi in ​​poimenovanju Malacca. Glede na malajski anali iz 16. stoletja je mesto ustanovila Parameswara. Nekateri verjamejo, da je bolj verjetno, da je bil hindujski princ in politični ubežnik od blizu Java. Legenda pravi, da je bil Parameswara na lovu v regiji in se ustavil, da bi se osvežil blizu današnje reke Malacca. Stoji v bližini a melaka Drevo (indijske kosmulje) je bil presenečen, ko je bil priča enemu od njegovih lovskih psov, ki ga je mišji jelen tako presenetil, da je padel v reko. Parameswara je to vzel kot blagodejni znak šibkih, ki so premagali mogočne, in se odločil, da bo zgradil prestolnico svojega novega kraljestva tam, kjer je stal, in ga poimenoval za drevo, pod katerim je počival. Druga poročila pravijo, da Malacca izvira iz arabske besede Malakat, kar pomeni "trg". Malaka je imela v bližini zaščiteno pristanišče Sumatra čez ozke ožine. Oskrbovali so ga z veliko količino sveže vode, uživali so glavno lokacijo glede na spreminjajoče se monsunske vetrove in imeli osrednjo lokacijo v regionalnih vzorcih trgovine, zaradi česar je kmalu postalo uspešno trgovsko mesto. Njegova bogastvo se je povečalo z uradnim sprejetjem islama v 14. stoletju. Sultani Malake so kmalu privabili arabske trgovce od daleč. Vendar je Malacca še naprej trgovala s trgovci vseh ras in religij.

Po obisku kitajskega muslimanskega admirala Cheng Ho sredi 15. stoletja so se stiki med Kitajsko in Malacco okrepili. V zameno za zaščito pred Siam, Malacca je postala vazalna država Ming Kitajske. Za zagotovitev varnosti Malacce je sultan Samudra-Pasai ustanovil novo in močno kraljestvo. Obisk Cheng Ho je sprožil tudi prvi val kitajskega priseljevanja v Malacco, pri čemer so mnogi od teh kitajskih naseljencev prevzeli lokalne malajske neveste, da bi ustvarili Peranakan skupnosti. Rezultat tega je zanimiva fuzija kitajske in malajske kulture. Moške nagovarjajo kot Babas in ženske Nyonyas s svojimi služabniki, kar pomeni "gospodar" in "ljubica".

Moč Malezij se je začela povečevati v 15. stoletju. V malajskem analu je bil sultan Mansur Shah omenjen kot šest žena, peta pa je bila hči Mingovega cesarja. V kitajskih kronikah pa takšnega dogodka niso zabeležili.

Stvari so se začele spreminjati s prihodom Portugalcev leta 1509. Sprva so jih pozdravili, toda indijski trgovci so sultana kmalu obrnili proti Portugalcem in morali so pobegniti. Leta 1511 so se Portugalci vrnili in ob svojem drugem poskusu zavzeli mesto. Med portugalskim kolonialnim obdobjem se je veliko portugalskih moških naselilo v mestu in prevzelo krajevne neveste, kar je povzročilo nastanek Evroazijski skupnost, katere kultura je edinstven spoj evropske in azijske tradicije. Portugalci so mesto spremenili v masivno obzidano trdnjavo s stolpom, ki je bil obdan s topovi. Menilo se je, da lahko takšne utrdbe zdržijo posege drugih evropskih sil, željnih dela azijske trgovine z luksuznim blagom.

Zavezništvo med Nizozemci in sultanom iz Johor je izgubil velik del moči Malacce. Leta 1641 je nizozemska mornarica blokirala Malacco in mesto je zavzela po šestih mesecih. Med obleganjem je bil večji del portugalskega mesta uničen.

Šele po 150 letih so Nizozemci izgubili moč nad Malacco. Leta 1795 so Nizozemska so osvojili Francozi, Britanci pa so želeli prevzeti nizozemsko posest v Malacci. Takrat je Malacca izgubila večino svojega nekdanjega pomena, čeprav je ostala pomemben del azijskih trgovskih poti.

Vrata A Famosa so vse, kar je ostalo od starih portugalskih in nizozemskih utrdb. Ko so se Napoleonove vojne končale, so Britanci vedeli, da bo Malacca vrnjena pod nizozemski nadzor. Da bi bilo mesto neobranljivo, so mestno obzidje sesuli. V zadnjem trenutku je britanski častnik, mladi sir Stamford Raffles (ustanovitelj britanskega Singapurja) rešil vrata. Kmalu po vrnitvi pod nizozemsko oblast so nizozemska in britanska vlada zamenjale kolonije - britanske Bencoolen v Sumatra za nizozemsko Malacco.

Govori

Malacca je kulturno raznoliko mesto, kar se kaže v številu jezikov, ki se uporabljajo v vsakdanjem življenju. Kot v drugih delih Malezije Malajski ali je lingua franca, angleščina pa se pogosto govori na turističnih območjih in med domačini višjega razreda. Etnična kitajska skupnost govori predvsem Hokkien, čeprav mnogi znajo govoriti Kantonski in Mandarina prav tako. Etnična indijska skupnost je v glavnem sestavljena iz Tamilsko zvočnikov, čeprav obstaja tudi pomemben Sikh manjšina, ki večinoma govori Pandžabski. Skupnost Peranakan govori značilno kreolsko prebivalstvo iz Malezije z močnimi Hokkienovimi vplivi, znanimi kot Baba malajščina, medtem ko portugalsko-evrazijska skupnost govori a Portugalščinana osnovi kreole, znane kot Kristang.

Vstopi

Z letalom

1 Mednarodno letališče Malacca (MKZ IATA) (10 km od mesta Malacca). Malindo Air je edini operater z dnevnim letom do Penang. (posodobljeno oktober 2017)

Kopenski prevoz:

Avtobus Batang (rumena, smetana in rdeča) iz Melaka Sentral bo šla mimo letališča. Avtobusi se ustavljajo ob glavni cesti približno 200 m od letališke stavbe. Tuahba št. 65 (modra in bela) do Tamana Merdeka gre tudi od Melake Sentral mimo letališča preko Bachang.

Mednarodno letališče Kuala Lumpur KLIA, (KUL IATA) je najbližje glavno letališče in je z avtomobilom oddaljeno 1½-2 ure. Transnacionalno avtobusno podjetje vozi 4 direktne avtobuse vsak dan ob 9:15, 11:45, 16:15 in 20:15 (RM22 / 16 odrasli / otrok), čas potovanja 2½ ure, če pa jih boste pogrešali, boste morali obvoziti KL ali vzemite taksi s časom potovanja približno 1,5 ure (fiksna "proračunska" cena vozovnice RM159, 1 smer, števec v notranjih prihodih, stražar vas in vaš voziček za prtljago z veseljem spusti nazaj na to območje).

  • Malaysia Airlines, Sklop 1 in 2, blok A, pritličje, hotel Century Mahkota, J. Merdeka, Melaka, ☏ 60 6 282 9597. Ne leti do Malake, ima pa tu pisarno. 

Z avtobusom

Številni hitri avtobusi na dolge razdalje povezujejo Malacco z obema Kuala Lumpur, Seremban, Johor Bahru, Singapur in drugih delih polotoka Malezije. Vsi medkrajevni in lokalni avtobusi vozijo iz 2 Avtobusni terminal Melaka Sentral, dobrih 4,5 km od zgodovinskega jedra mesta.

Do glavnega zgodovinskega okrožja se peljemo z avtobusom številka 17, ki ustavlja z domačega avtobusnega terminala Melaka Sentral v avtobusnem zalivu '17'. Ta avtobus vozi do kitajske četrti in Taming Sari. Najbližja postaja kitajske četrti je Dutch Square, ki jo boste zlahka prepoznali po opečnati cerkvi Christ Church in Stadthuys. Cena je RM2 / osebo (julij 2017). Avtobus 17 je zančna linija, zato se, ko se morate vrniti do Melaka Sentral, lahko peljete na istem mestu, kjer ste izstopili, vendar pa z avtobusom 17 nazaj do Melaka Sentral traja veliko dlje kot vhodno potovanje (približno 40 ). Precej hitrejši (in cenejši) način je hoja do konca Jonker Walk do Jalana Kabuja. Na desni boste videli tamilsko metodistično cerkev in čez cesto (z imenom Jalan Kabu) avtobusno postajališče (Perhentian Jalan Kabu). Od tam avtobus stane 1,5 RM (julij 2017) in traja 15 minut, da doseže Melaka Sentral. Avtobusi 17 vozijo približno vsakih 20-40 min, odvisno od prometa.

Če želite namesto iz centra Sentral s taksijem do centra, se odpravite proti zadnjemu delu stavbe. Obstaja uradna taksi postaja, ki vam bo postavila voznika. Ti so običajno umazani z nesramnimi in agresivnimi vozniki, ki varajo tako domačine kot tujce. Zavrnili bi uporabo števca in zaračunali previsoke cene za kratke razdalje (vožnja od Melake Sentral do glavnega turističnega območja na Jonkerjevi ulici bi bila približno 25 RM in več). Domačini bi taksiste običajno označevali s "samseng" (malajščina za gangsterje) in priporočali uporabo možnosti skupne rabe vozil / e-klicanja, kot je Uber ali lokalno malezijsko podjetje Zgrabi kot cenejše in bolj profesionalne alternative. Vožnja do Jonkerja bi bila približno RM8 za udoben čist avto in prijaznega lokalnega voznika. Če prispete z avtobusom v Melaka Sentral, se odpravite do glavnega vhoda in zaprosite za prevoz. Ne hodite do zadnjega vhoda, kjer čakajo predragi taksiji. Pred prihodom morate prenesti aplikacije s pametnega telefona.

Iz Kuala Lumpurja

Avtobusi proti jugu odhajajo zdaj z novega avtobusnega terminala Bersepadu Selatan (TBS), ki je poleg postaje LRT in postaje KTM Komuter Bandar Tasik Selatan. Iz kitajske četrti je najlažje priti do stare železniške postaje Kuala Lumpur (nasproti strani kanala od postaje LRT Pasar Seni, uporabite nadvoz) in se z vlakom KTM Komuter odpeljati do RM1.10 ali pa LRT s postaje Masjid Jamek. Avtobusi odhajajo vsake pol ure, cena vozovnice do Melaka Sentral je med RM10 in RM15, vožnja pa traja 2 uri 15 minut.

Z mednarodnega letališča Kuala Lumpur vozi tudi več dnevnih avtobusov (za podrobnosti glej nekaj odstavkov zgoraj).

Iz Singapurja

Številne avtobusne družbe obratujejo od avtobusne postaje Lavender St. neposredno do Melake Sentral. Vozni red avtobusov se med podjetji razlikuje, nekateri pa obratujejo z urnimi avtobusi. Najbolje je, da se pojavite in kupite vstopnice vnaprej, če želite potovati v soboto zjutraj in se vrniti v nedeljo popoldne, saj ima veliko singapurskih turistov isto idejo. Cene vozovnic se lahko gibljejo od približno 50 do 50 SGD v eno smer, odvisno od razreda avtobusa.

Vožnja z avtobusom pogosto traja od 3 do 5 ur, odvisno od tega, kako dolgo je treba prečkati mejo Singapurja in Malezije, kar lahko v času konic povzroči velike zamude. Na vsakem koncu meje boste morali imeti odtisnjen potni list, vso prtljago pa morate imeti s seboj, ko pripravljate vhod v vsako državo. Na splošno vas avtobus čaka na meji, včasih pa pričakujejo, da boste ujeli naslednjega avtobusa, če si predolgo pripeljete do carine. Prepričajte se, da se spomnite, kako izgleda vaš avtobus (registrska tablica je zelo priročna stvar). Avtobusi bodo med potjo imeli tudi 20 do 30 minut počitka, kjer boste lahko kupili hrano in uporabljali stranišča (katerih čistoča je lahko vprašljiva). Singapursko carinsko območje ima po potrebi toaletne prostore.

Nekatera podjetja, ki poslujejo iz / iz Malake, so:

  • Transnacionalno, je največji avtobusni prevoznik na dolge razdalje v Maleziji. Povezuje državo s številnimi destinacijami na polotoku Malezija, kot so Kuala Lumpur, Seremban, Singapur in še dlje. Mednarodni avtobusi odpeljejo iz mesta Malacca (Melaka Sentral), Alor Gajah, letovišča A'Famosa in Masjid Tanah.
  • Malacca-Kuala Lumpur Express: Urni avtobusi med Malacco City in Kuala Lumpur od 05: 30-19: 00. Vstopnice stanejo 12,50 RM.
  • Jebat Ekspres: Avtobusi do Kuala Lumpurja preko Masjid Tanah in Alor Gajah.
  • Malacca-Singapore Express: Urni avtobusi med Malacco City in Johor Bahru in Singapur 8: 00-19: 00. Vstopnice stanejo RM19 do / iz Johor Baruja in 22,00 RM do Singapurja. Pot od Singapurja do Malacce je SGD20
  • Delima Express: Avtobusi iz Singapurja v Malacco / Malacca v Singapur. Vstopnice stanejo 20,80 SGD / RM22 (RM / 26 julija 2017). Mesto vkrcanja v Singapurju je City Plaza @ Payar Lebar. Spletne rezervacije so na voljo.
  • Mayang Sari Express: Avtobusi do / iz Johorja Baruja. Vstopnice stanejo RM19.
  • MCW Express: Pogoste ekspresne storitve do podjetja Muar, Johor
  • 707 Potovanje: Najljubša avtobusna družba kitajsko-singapurskih avtobusov, ki se odpravljajo v Malacco. Odhod 4-5 krat do / iz Malake (Melaka Sentral) in Singapurja (Queen Street). Ne ustavi se na Yong Pengu, zato je potovanje lahko le 3,5 ure. SGD25 iz Singapurja; RM25 iz Malake. V monsunski sezoni okoli novoletnih cen so SGD20 iz Singapurja. Iz te družbe prihajajo grozljive zgodbe, vendar se ne odlašajte. Njihova komunikacija je morda nekoliko slaba, vendar če predolgo prehajate carino, morate le pokazati naslednjemu avtobusu 707 svojo vozovnico in že boste na poti. Vendar zabavanje na malezijski meji ni zabavno, saj ni klimatske naprave.

Z vlakom

Do mesta Malacca ne vozi nobena železniška proga. Najbližja železniška postaja je pri Pulau Sebang /Tampin, ☏ 60 6 341 1034v okrožju Alor Gajah, oddaljenem približno 30 km (19 milj). Postaja je na glavni progi Kuala Lumpur-Johor Bahru in jo vozijo vsi vlaki.

Priti tja:

Z avtobusom:Avtobus "Tai Lye" vozi iz mesta Tampin do Malake. Iskali boste avtobus št. 26. Ko izstopite iz vlaka, po cesti hodite približno 400 m desno, dokler ne pridete do glavne ceste. Zdaj imate dve možnosti. 1) Prečkajte cesto in počakajte, da avtobus 26 pride proti vam, noro mahnite in ustavil se bo, da vas pobere. 2) Ko pridete do glavne ceste, zavijte levo in hodite približno 600 m v mesto. Prišli boste do križišča, ki je glavna cesta T, cesta se razcepi levo v hrib. Hodite po tej cesti približno 200 m in avtobusna postaja je na vaši levi. To je manj tvegana, vendar večja možnost hoje. Če imate veliko prtljage, se lahko s taksijem odpeljete tudi od železniške postaje do avtobusne postaje. Če se izgubite na sprehodu, preprosto vprašajte domačine za "avtobusno postajo". Le malo tu govori angleško, vendar bodo razumeli, kam želite priti. Cena avtobusa je RM4.30, za plačilo pa boste potrebovali gotovino. Potovanje traja približno uro in pol.

Avtobus "Salira" (svetlo modra in rumena) vozi tudi od Melake Sentral do Tampina preko Ayer Keroh in Durian Tunggal. Izstopite iz avtobusa na istem mestu kot Tai Lye.

S taksijem: Na železniški postaji bi moral biti taksi ali dva, ki bi čakal, da pride kdo, kot ste vi. Če je ni, pojdite v mesto z zgornjimi navodili. Kmalu ga boste videli. Stroški bodo nekje okoli RM50, vendar lahko poskusite malo barantati. Kakorkoli že, naj vas odpeljejo v hotel ali če vas lahko odpeljejo le do Malacce Sentral, si zagotovite cenejšo vozovnico (ne čakajte, da se o tem pogovorite v taksiju!) Če imate denar in več kot le aktovko, to je lažja možnost. Avtomobili so klimatizirani (še en pogajalski žeton, če niso) in imajo prostor za prtljažnik za vašo opremo. Poleg tega si lahko stroške delite z do tremi drugimi osebami. Ali če ste sami, morda obstaja kakšen domačin, ki se prav tako trudi priti do Malacce in bi cenil brezplačno vožnjo? Ne pozabite pa biti na varnem. Ne vstopajte v svoj taksi, dokler ga voznik nima, vedno plačajte na cilju in opazujte svoje stvari! Pot s taksijem traja približno 40 minut.

Z avtom

Do Malacce je mogoče dostopati s spletnega mesta Hitra cesta Sever Jug. Ko prihajate z juga, zapeljite po E2 in zapustite hitro cesto pri cesti Ayer Keroh izhod. Lahko pa zapustite avtocesto na izvozu Simpang Empat in nadaljujete po običajni cesti do Malacce. Ta pot bo potekala skozi mesto Alor Gajah, zdaj pa bo z novo avtocesto (obvoznico) pot od Simpang Empata do Malake trajala približno 20-30 minut z avtom.

Mesto Malacca je na obalni magistralni cesti (zvezna pot 5), do nje pa je mogoče dostopati z glavne prometnice (zvezna pot 1), tako da zavijete na Simpang Kendong oz. Tampin, Negeri Sembilan.Malacca je 150 km (93 milj) od Kuala Lumpurja, 216 km (134 milj) od Johor Bahruin 90 km (56 milj) od Port Dickson.

Izposoditi si avto

S taksijem

Najeti taksi storitve so na voljo od konca Jalan Kee Ann. Potujejo znotraj zvezne države Malacca in zunaj Malacce, na primer do mednarodnega letališča KLIA in Kuala Lumpur, hkrati pa prevažajo do 4 potnike. Številni taksiji bodo za takšna potovanja uporabljali določeno ceno in ne meter, zato se pred vstopom dogovorite za ceno. Če se raje izognete pogajanjem, lahko večina hotelov rezervira ta potovanja namesto vas (čeprav nekateri morda velika provizija, zato preverite ceno), ali pa lahko rezervirate preko spleta pri številnih podjetjih. Običajne voznine za KLIA znašajo RM150-200, odvisno tudi od modela avtomobila. Družinski taksiji so na voljo pri nekaterih podjetjih.

Zemljevid Malake

Malacca nikakor ni majhno mesto, vendar je večina glavnih krajev med seboj oddaljena peš in jih je najbolje raziskati peš. Pazite, da med slikanjem zgradb ne zadržujete prometa. Domačini imajo na splošno dober občutek za vožnjo in se držijo prometne zakonodaje.

Z monotirko

1,6-kilometrski monotirni sistem povezuje postajo Taman Rempah s postajo Hang Tuah, vzdolž reke je enotirna proga, ki pa decembra 2018 ne deluje.

Z avtom

Ulice v starejšem / zgodovinskem delu mesta so zelo ozke, zato se med konicami hitro zamašijo. To še posebej velja med vikendi, ko v mesto priplavajo avtomobili iz drugih delov Malezije in iz Singapurja. Poiskati parkirišče je med vikendi tudi izjemno težko. Večina cest je tudi enosmernih, zato pravilno načrtujte pot.

S taksijem

Izogibajte se taksijem, če je mogoče, in uporabite e-pozdravne vožnje Uber ali Grab. Znano je, da so taksiji nesramni in agresivni ter nočejo uporabljati števcev in previsoko zaračunavati potnike. Najemanje taksijev bi stalo približno RM20, če bi se vozili kamor koli v mestu, medtem ko bi bila vožnja po e-pošti morda za manj varne in čistejše avtomobile in voznike nižja od polovice cene.

Z avtobusom

  • Mestni avtobus Malacca št: Melaka Sentralni terminal do zgodovinskega jedra, parada Mahkota, Melaka Raya in portugalsko naselje. Cena vozovnice od Melake Sentral do Makhota Parade je od 1,50 RM do 2,00 (avgust 2018). Zadnji avtobus iz Melaka Sentral odpelje ob 20.30, nato pa bi morali vzeti taksi, ki stane do RM25 do Mahkota Parade ali Uber / Grab za RM8. Če želite najti avtobus št. 17 na Melaka Sentral, poiščite modro tablo z napisom "Domači avtobusi" ali vprašajte nekoga, kje je. Domače avtobusno območje se nahaja na zadnjem delu terminala Sentral. Domači terminalski odsek je polkrožen, s parkirišči za avtobuse od 1 do 18. Za avtobuse št. 17 do zgodovinskega jedra morate iti do avtobusnega zaliva št. 17. Tudi znotraj vrat, kjer odhajajo javni avtobusi, je majhna pisalna miza za informacije. Na povratku iz Makhota Parade avtobus 17 vozi po glavni cesti (Jalan Syed Abdul Aziz ali Lebuhraya Coastal) južno od nakupovalnega središča Makhota Parade, čez velik most čez pristanišče in nato na cesti zavije proti severu isto ime in spet desno do Jalana Kubuja, preden se ustavimo ob tamilski cerkvi ob Jonkers Walk. Od te postaje do avtobusne postaje traja 10–15 minut, ne pa 1 uro, če se peljete v drugo smer. Da pridete do Melake Sentral z ulice Jonker, se sprehodite do severnega konca ulice Jonkier, do avtobusne postaje nasproti tamilske metodistične cerkve (Perhentian Julan Kubu) oz izven mestnega kampusa Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTM) na Jalan Hang Tuah in se peljite z avtobusom št. 17 (RM1, 10 minut).

  • Mestni avtobus Malacca št. 50: Melaka Sentral Terminal do nakupovalnega središča Mahkota Parade in bližnjih restavracij z morsko hrano
  • Kenderaan Aziz (rdeče in belo): Avtobusi od Melake Sentral do Muarja preko Padang Temu vozijo tudi mimo zgodovinskega jedra, Mahkota Parade in Melaka Raya

Na splošno je avtobusni sistem v Malacci slabši od kaotičnega: ni videti voznega reda (na avtobus na obali severno od Malacce je mogoče čakati več kot uro) in informacij o tem, kje in katere avtobuse ujeti. na spletnem mestu Sentral sploh ne obstaja (morda boste imeli srečo ob pogledu na natisnjene papirnate prikazovalnike pred sprednjo stranjo avtobusov).

Starejši del mesta imajo poleg stare palače in velikih stavb, ki so jih zapustili Evropejci, tudi številne zasebne hiše in trgovine izpred skoraj stoletja ali več, ki so jih postavili kitajski trgovci. Mnogi od njih imajo čudovite detajle, na primer oblikovane porcelanske ploščice in poslikane ometne reliefe na sprednji strani. Žal so običajno slabo ohranjene in mestna vlada se je pred nekaj leti odločila, da bo vse stavbe v zgodovinskem okrožju pobarvala v svetlo opečnato rdečo barvo, saj je nenehno pljuvanje mimoidočih povzročalo nadloge, kar zmanjšuje njihovo estetsko vrednost .

Ob torkih so številni muzeji, trgovine in restavracije zaprti, zlasti na območju Jonker Street. Če imate v Malacci le en dan, ne hodi v torek!

Nakup

Malacca is famed for its antiques, with many a beautiful shophouse interior now filled to the brim with artefacts from all around the Asia Pacific region. Your chances of finding a bargain here are minimal though; prices in many of the tourist-oriented places are absurdly high by any standard, and although many items are touted as being 'more than a hundred years old', most is brand new but 'aged' at the back of the shops.

Jej

Besides the usual Malaysian fare, you'll be able to sample some rather peculiar Malaccan food. On top of the list is of course Peranakan or Baba-Nyonya food, which used to be totally uncommercialised and confined to the kitchens of old grandmothers. Now, there is a string of restaurants claiming to serve Peranakan food, but most unfortunately seem to be on the tour bus circuit. The dishes are slightly different from those of the Penang Peranakan. Usual ones include ayam pongteh (chicken in bean sauce, originally cooked with pork), ayam buah keluak (chicken cooked with a bitter fruit) and a whole array of desserts. Another famous Malacca dish is what is commonly called "chicken rice ball". Although it is called Hainanese chicken rice, it is not from Hainan, China, but invented by the Hainanese immigrants to Malaysia a long time ago. The chicken for this dish is very much the same as the boiled chicken offered throughout Malaysia; what is unique is the rice - it comes in ping-pong sized balls. Yet another Malaccan speciality is satay celup. It is like lok-lok found in other parts of the country but instead of dipping your skewered food (fishballs, crabsticks, meat, prawns, etc.) into boiling water, you dip them into a boiling vat of satay sauce. The sight of boiling satay sauce may not appeal to you but the crowds at the satay celup outlets seem to suggest that many have overcome their phobias.

Of course, Malacca is where you'll find Portuguese-Eurasian food. The greatest concentration of outlets is at the Portuguese Settlement. Seafood is popular, as are the fiery "devil curries".

For local Malay delicacies, worth trying:

  • Asam Pedas ("sour hot"), the signature dish of the state. A very hot and mildly sour fish curry accompanied by white rice. Normally eaten during lunch and dinner. From RM4.50.
  • Sambal Belacan, very spicy local chilli prawn paste.
  • Cencaluk, can be found sold along the roads near Klebang Beach. Made of fermented krills. A bit weird tasting for those who are not used to it.
  • Lemang, glutinous rice cooked in bamboo, sold on the side of the road to Teluk Mas.
  • Ikan Bakar (baked fish), head to Umbai, Pernu or Serkam for a dinner of fresh caught grilled fish and crustaceans.
  • Kuih Udang (shrimp cakes), you can find this popular tea time dish in Alor Gajah town. The sauce is nice too.
  • Kuih-muih, traditional cakes and deserts like dodol, wajik, lempok, inang-inang, gula melaka and many more are sold in shopping malls at Bandar Hilir, Klebang Beach and kampung areas throughout the state.

Other local but not typically Malay food:

  • Roti John, an invented omelette sandwich, very popular among the Malays. For a good one, look for the restaurant in Tanjung Kling.
  • Local burger, the street stall vendors, generally local Malay men serve quite tasty and satisfying burgers and hotdogs and it's cheaper than ordinary fast food restaurants too.

The tourism boom has seen many new food and beverage outlets open in Malacca, and especially in the heritage area of Jonker and Heeren Street. However, competition is great and some outlets fail to survive. Places you discover on your first visit may not be around anymore on your second.

Ostani varen

Malacca is a very safe place with a low crime rate. However, do watch out for pickpockets in crowded areas and bags snatching on the roadside by motorbikes. Carry your identification papers (passport) with you always because there are random checks by the police for illegal immigrants.
