Apart from the basic cliche destinations, there is a long-hidden treasure, known as Malacca. Located in Southwestern Malaysia, the place has a lot many things to offer and is yet to be explored.

Many Malacca Hotels are also influenced by Malaccan traditions.

A Lot More to Culture and Tourism

There are many more things in the Malaccan culture that entice people to visit more and more.

Much of its culture depends on the livelihood transformed by the invaders. Though the place consists of top-notch modern infrastructure hotels, there is also something old European influence left to the tourism of the city. 

Much of the lifestyle of Malacca Hotels and its tourism depends on the old ethics of the city. Even the most popular dances such as Beranyo and Frappiera inculcates Portugues values. The popular festivals of the city include the Easter Festival known as San Pedra. The city has religious places such as St. Peter Church, Vinayagar Moorthi Temple, Cheng Hoon Teng Temple, and Sam Poh Kong Temple.
