Checked in at the iconic Dutch Square in Malacca

It was once the crossroads of the East that I learned about in geography class. Education has come full circle at this moment. Departing from Kuala Lumpur, we took a chartered car first to the Pink Church, which is recommended to visit in the morning as it gets backlit in the afternoon. Then, it's a 2-hour drive to Malacca, mainly to see the Dutch Red House (take photos of the two buildings together), St. Paul's Church (the small windows are great for photos), the colorful little houses, and then you must take a boat ride. It offers a lot of beautiful scenery and is very worthwhile. If you're hungry, you can go to Chicken Rice Street for some tasty food. Finally, after a 20-minute drive, we arrived at the Floating Mosque at around 5 pm. We didn't enter the mosque but went to the small path next to it on the left for photos. You need to buy a 5-ringgit water to enter. Going too early when it's backlit doesn't capture much scenery. It only looks good when the sun is about to set. Standing in front of the mosque, watching the boats pass through the Malacca Strait under the afterglow, is very atmospheric. Today, I'm particularly fond of the sunset over the Malacca Strait🌅
