One of Melaka&#8217;s must-see places, Christ Church in the Dutch Square has a long history dating back to 1752. And the best thing ? It&#8217;s free of charge! Besides its striking red walls, this church is known to be the oldest Protestant church in Malaysia. It is now an Anglican Church.<\/p>\n<p>Surrounding this red brick building you&#8217;ll find many special, brightly decorated rides catering to tourists. These trishaws will bring you around the popular areas of Melaka for you to enjoy the sights and sounds of this bustling city.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>Tip: Ask and settle a price with the trishaw rider before you hop in<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-13985 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.my\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/malacca-trishaws.jpg\" alt=\"Malacca trishaws\" width=\"936\" height=\"526\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-13980 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expedia.com.my\/stories\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/malacca-church-by-night-1024x892-1.jpg\" alt=\"malacca-church-by-night\" width=\"400\" height=\"348\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Christ Church<\/u><\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Address: Jalan Gereja 75000 Melaka, Malaysia<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Opening Hours: Monday to Saturday &#8211; 08:30 to 17:00<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Admission: free<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>2) Quell your hunger pangs with Melaka&#8217;s famed chicken rice balls<\/h2>\n<p>What&#8217;s a trip to Melaka without some chicken rice balls?
