Heritage

Cheng Ho Cultural Museum

Cheng Ho Cultural Museum is believed to be a restructured ancient building with Ming architecture, with two to three hundred years of history. The famous Cheng Ho is the Ming Dynasty Admiral who has visited Malacca many times while en route to the Western Ocean from 1405-1433. It is  believed that he has set up a huge warehouse complex along the northern side of Malacca River. To date, there has been dispute in the location of the warehouse complex, while some believed to be at Bukit Cina. Nevertheless, the museum showcases many evidence of cultural exchange between the local ethnic and the Chinese, among others, treasure ships, tea houses and other navigation instruments.

Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum

The Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum is a combination of three terrace lots that were acquired by the Chan family in 1861.Four generations lived in the house before it was opened as a museum in March 1985.The eclectic taste of the house, offers visitors a glimpse into the richness of the culture and the opulence that was fashionable in many pre-World War II Malaccan Peranakan homes.Today the museum is still managed and preserved by the Chan family, in hope to honour the Peranakan spirit, keeping it alive for many generations to come!
