Christ Church was built in 1753 to celebrate a century of Dutch occupation. The interior of the cathedral has 200 year-old handmade pews, decorative fanlights and plaques that honor Dutch soldiers and locals.

Victoria Fountain was erected in 1904 to commemorate Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee. One of the oldest surviving parts of Malacca, Dutch Square’s most prominent building is the Stadthuys. 

and take a walk up to St. Paul’s Hill for a panoramic view of the Malacca Straits. At the top is the ruin of St. Paul’s Church, lined by 17th century Dutch tomb stones.

Visit the Cheng Hoon Teng temple or the "Temple of Green Cloud" is a Taoist temple founded in the 1600s. It is dedicated to the Goddess of Mercy (Kuan Yin). This temple was constructed by skilled workers from China - master craftsmen, artisans and carpenters, who replicated the designs of the Southern Chinese temple.
