❗Insider Tips for Visiting Malacca
1⃣ Protect yourself from the intense sun; the Malacca heat is no joke 🔥. Essential items include hats, umbrellas, sunglasses, and small fans to keep you cool and comfortable. Opt for loose, breathable clothing to stay fresh, as the heat can make you sweat profusely.

2⃣ Plan your itinerary in advance. Mark your must-visit spots on Google Maps to avoid the frustration 😣 of searching for locations in the sweltering heat. For activities like photography or costume rentals, make sure to book them ahead of time to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience.📌

3⃣ If time allows, take a leisurely stroll through the many charming shops lining the streets. When the heat gets too much, duck into a quaint café for a refreshing break ☕. If we return to Malacca, we would definitely opt for this relaxed and immersive way of exploring the city.

4⃣ For the best photo opportunities at the Maritime Mosque, head to the coastline next to it. The golden hour, just as the sun sets, offers a magical backdrop with the setting sun, the sea, and the mosque creating a truly breathtaking scene 🖼. In that moment, life feels wonderfully fulfilling ❤.
