An Absolute Must See
By far, one of my favourite ruins in Asia. So charming and beautiful. The view is amazing. The street artist on the right side of the church is the best--bought so many pieces from him. This place is a must see when in Melaka.

Peter vs Paul
Some of you are confusing St. Peter's with St. Paul's. St. Paul's is the ruin of an old Portuguese church on top of the hill. St. Peter's is a functioning Roman Catholic church built by the Dutch in another part of town. Both are well worth visiting.

Old Functioning Catholic Church in Melaka
The Church is located in Jalan Bendahara northeast of St.Paul's hill,and not to be mistaken with the ruins of St.Paul church on the top of the hill, near the Dutch Square . Many photos in this review , are the ruins of St.Paul's Church. The St.Peter is built in 1710 , said that this was the only Catholic Church in Melaka. Its still a functioning Church and many kinds of procession still implemented in this Church, like wedding and candlelight processions. Well preserved exterior and interior. Worth a visit !
