Photo sharing - The Historical Buildings in Malacc
I would like to share some photographs of Malacca/Melaka with all the CS members. Malacca is known as the historic state in Malaysia. In 1511, Portuguese attacked and conquered Malacca under the command of Alfonso de Albequerque.
A Famosa, once part of a mighty fortress, this tiny gate is all that is left of a once-mighty fortress.
The Stadthuys. Portuguese was defeated by the Dutch in 1624. The Stadthuys, in the Dutch Square, was built in 1650, it is a typical Dutch building with a clock tower.
Melaka Clock Tower built in 1886.
This fountain was built to commemorate Queen Victoria in 1901.
The Christ Church was built in 1753
