Essay about trip to malacca

On the 22nd of May, my college arranged a one day trip to Malacca. The objective of the trip was to learn about science at the Malacca Planetarium and to interview tourists. We started out journey to Malacca at 7.30a.m. by bus. On the way to Malacca, unfortunately, the bus I was on has a technical problem thus it delayed our journey.

I’ll start this post by saying Malacca deserves more than just a day trip, but sometimes in life a day is all you can spare. While writing this I’m watching day four of a cricket test match (after also watching the first three days), so clearly that doesn’t apply to me.

The most striking remnants of Malacca’s past can be found in and around Dutch Square. Christ Church, which dominates the square, is one of the nicest colonial churches in Southeast Asia, and there are plenty of other old buildings nearby. Dutch Square is probably the first place you’ll visit in Malacca and for me it was easily the highlight.

Buses between Kuala Lumpur (TBS Station) and Malacca will drop you at Melaka Sentral, where you can catch a taxi (or another bus) into the old part of town.
