  • By Jimmy Chai
    The place that cannot be missed in Malacca. In the day, plenty of shops selling the traditional goods, antiques and plenty of local food. At night, the crowd is really big. Food and local goods are everywhere. Great place.
  • By Fairuz Diyana Zulkifli
    Not bad. Can find a lot of foods. Not sure if it's halal. Didn't really eat just walk around. A lot of people during the weekends. So prepare.
