At its center, Jonker Street, Chinatown’s main thoroughfare, is known for antique shops and its night market. 

Later in the afternoon, we visit Melaka Bird Park, it has the largest aviary in Malaysia and will be the only bird park to house such a large collection of Malaysian bird species. With nearly 700 bird species calling the lands and waterways of Malaysia home, the bird park aims to protect every species and educate the public by hosting a number of educational and recreational programs.

Today you will visit Malacca which is about 150 KM from Kuala Lumpur. You will visit A Famosa Gate, built in 1511, which used to sprawl across a whole hillside but now only a lone gate (Porta de Santiago) remains. Originally constructed by Alfonso de Albuquerque (who led the Portuguese invasion on the Malacca Sultanate), the remains of the fort is now a preserved whitewashed gatehouse and is located downhill from St. Paul’s Church.
