Treasure trove of Peranakan culture.

Gifted, talented, explorers, adventurers, creative thinkers that became successful during the times of conquering super powers. Worth every penny for history lesson. RM15 during the weekday early. Unplanned visit and Zero crowd. Excellent presentation by guide.

    Nasi Lemak is more than just a dish we Malaysian love...
    Today I met Kim Eng at this wonderful place. One of the many things I discovered was the reason of Nasi Lemak served on the 12th day of the Baba Nyonya Weddings. It's more than just a feast...it's a symbolic recognition of the bride into her wedded family.

    My First Trip in Malacca 2014
    Kim Eng was a very good speaker and knowledgable tour guide. We were amazed from her clear speaking and a lot of confidence telling us about Baba Nyonya culture. I am so glad to see the museum was kept so well, clean and informative. For a 150 years of stuffs were kept so well and it is awesome!
