  • In this video, I'll be visiting Melaka City in Malacca, Malaysia. Malacca is one of the most historically rich cities in the world. Migrants have been coming here since the 15th century which has lead this city to become super diverse and unique. You will find mosques, churches, and temples all dating back to hundreds of years ago.
    When it comes to unique and diverse cities in Asia, Malacca is up there as one of the most unique and special. We will be visiting sites all over the city, trying some of the local cuisine, and meeting some of the community.
    Welcome to Malacca, Malaysia!

    Melaka is where it all began. The fact that the famous and one of the busiest strait in the world is named after Melaka i.e "The Strait of Melaka", it sure does speak volume of the state. It was a Kingdom in the old days where the Majestic China had full respect and the Western conquerers were drooled all over it.

    The gasp i gusped when i saw your new video is on MY STATE!! Welcome to Malacca bro! Melaka is truly a buzzing city that people would go to really experience the diversity of Malaysia. We used to have a slogan for Visiting Melaka campaign that says "Visiting Melaka means visiting Malaysia" haha, that "Don't Mess with Melaka" is our more recent slogan btw. Funny thing about Melaka though, is that weekends and holidays are the days when the locals would rather stay at home or get out of Melaka just to avoid the tourists; the traffic becomes horrible and it gets super crowded everyday. But honestly we wouldn't have it any other way because Melaka has improved rapidly as a result of the booming tourism industry here 😆

    The mosque you visited is a mosque that is 100% of Malay architecture without any influence from other Islamic countries, but unfortunately the majority of mosque architecture in Malaysia today is mostly influenced by the architecture of the Arab world, Persia and Turkey.
    I don't have a problem with the architecture of mosques that are heavily influenced by Arab countries in Malaysia, but this architectural design has a major flaw because the weather in Malaysia is different in Arab countries so most mosques that heavily influenced by arab , turkey and persia have a same problem that is the roof always leaks because there was no channel to flow the water when rain but this mosque don't have this problem cause the roof don't need the channel to flow the water. This design was perfect with climate in malaysia.
    Alhamdulilah right now lot of people started to realise about this issue and came back to fitrah and started using this design again.

    The Kampung Hulu masjid is of traditional Malay architecture. We have monsoon season with heavy rainfall all week. So that explains the pyramid roof for the rain water to fall directly to the ground. The mini stairs resemble Malay houses that are often lifted some feet above the ground to avoid flood. The national masjid (Masjid Negara) is another example of Malay architecture. Triangle motives in its dome. There is also a Chinese masjid in Melaka called Masjid Cina negeri Melaka. We have alot of masjid architecture since we are multicultural. Chinese, Indian, Arab masjid. You can find all of them here 😂

    Most of the people dont know this. I also dont know about this until few years ago when I read English translation of Dutch text during their colonisation time in Malacca. When they took Malacca from Portugese, the castle and the great mosque of Malacca were still standing. In fact the Portugese didn't even try to convert Malaccan Native to Christian. But once Dutch took over, they proudly wrote in the text that they destroy the castle and the great mosque and use the remnant from the building to build their building
