Asia Experience's trip down memory lane - Malacca
The Asia Experience team visited the historical city of Malacca. This ever popular & well known historical site was recently listed as a World Heritage Site by Unesco. It was a trip down memory lane for most of us. This city, till today, is still rich with historical and heritage sites. Malacca, is the guardian charged with the reflective task of preserving its past. Five hundred years ago, an extraordinary empire rose and fell here, its power and dreams suddenly caught off-guard by the dawn of the Colonial Era. |
