A play with a very historical tradition, a theater that combines Eastern and Western culture, and the performers’ attentive performances impressed me deeply.

A 360° viewing tower that provides a breath-taking view form a height of 80 meters in the air. The 7-minutes ride enables you to view spectacular and panoramic sights of Melaka.

The performance is presented in a new genre and innovative art production 360-degree rotating auditorium and multi stages, while equipped with advanced audio and a 3D video mapping projection. Audience will not be seated passively but would be made as one of the performers. Expected to see an astounding performance. The performers can intricate theatre props with special effect are used to enhance the dramatic and visual effects of the show. The 360-degree rotating audience platform is the 'heart' of Encore Melaka. Audience will be rotated at a maximum speed of 5 meter per second stable enough not to be noticed by the audience and quiet enough not to interfere show performance

The driver can speak Chinese and is very enthusiastic about the tour guide service, introducing the scenery and humanities along the way. It took a total of 6 hours to drive there and back, and it took more than 7:30 to get back to Kuala Lumpur! The driver also took us to eat local delicacy - Friendship Bak Kut Teh.

Okay, I think it was the most fun I've had in Malacca. I wasn't really interested in other places, but I liked the Sari Tower entrance ticket. It's worth doing at least once. I heard it's fun to look down. You should definitely try it.

The tour guide Hameed was very funny and told a lot of history and humor which made people smile knowingly. Malacca is very beautiful and I would like to stay more if I have the chance. The pineapple tart recommended by the tour guide is really delicious. I will go there. I remembered to buy it and try it, and accidentally went to a coffee shop there. It was very elegant and delicious. I recommend everyone to go to Malacca and remember to take a cruise! beautiful

Thank you to the driver CK TAN. It’s great that he can speak Chinese. We came together in the same car, so my mother can chat happily and comfortably.
