Storycitra.com- Everyone deserves to be happy.
Everyone wants to get lost in beautiful place. When we are already save money
and get lost in the place what we want to. Bad day is coming, are you
disappointed about it? Every season which it is not expected will be more
fantastic to say about the adventure. It’s like quotes I choose this time, “Traveling
– it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta.
Today,
Citra wants to tell you story about Explore Malacca in raining day. I do not
expected this time is raining day while I go to discover a few week in Malaysia
and the last final itinerary to visit Malacca. I use bus from Mersing city to
Malacca. It need more than 4 hours and we get the bus in afternoon time and
arrive in Malacca in evening time.
From
central bus, I choose taxi online to take us to one of my new friend which she
allows me to stay in her house. I am using the website couchsurfing.com to get
free stay and honestly, this is my first experience using this site. Everything
is great in that moment while I am visiting her. That is on weekend so that is
mean we can explore Jonker Walk,
because Jonker Walk only exist in the weekend. So lovely!
Do you
wonder about my short gates away in Malacca, Malaysia? Even in the raining
season? I feel so amazing in that moment to explore even in the short holiday
and I still wish to visit Malacca again to get lost and discover in some areas.
In the
night, I just explore Jonker Walk - Famous Night Market! This is nice for us
who love to enjoy the culinary but if you are Muslim should be ware because
there is in some stands sell pork or non halal food. There is not only food but also many jewels
and some accessories to buy as souvenirs.
Flash Info: Night jonker market is exist every Friday, Saturday and Sunday. In that time, they allow many stands in the street. Start 6:00pm until midnight. It is here that traders will display their wares and invite you to see and buy. As people who visit Jonker street food, this is the best part to enjoy culinary in Malacca.
After satisfied
in the night and we are going back to take good sleep because afternoon I
should back to Indonesia. Before going back with last ferry schedule, I want to
discover Malacca heritage. This place should be one list to visit when holiday
in Malacca because there is the best part to see architectural building.
So, here I
am. I am walking over the Stadthuys which this is not far from A Famosa. All building
in this area is RED. I ever heard some people said RED City because most this
area the building painting with the red color. As I know, the Stadthuy was
built in 1650 by Dutch such as their administrative centre.
Of course,
I am also taking photo at Christ Church. This is the landmark you should take
photos hahaha. It’s so fantastic even in raining. I still enjoy my time to
discover the “red city” because part of part heritage is not far each other. I
still can walk in corridor without making me wet.
I really
wanna go inside the Flor de la mar museum but the time is not allow me to get
inside this museum. The museum is a replica of an actual Portuguese ship that
sunk somewhere off the Straits of Malacca in 1511. So, I just take photo from
outside. Before taking taxi to bring me to the terminal, I go to cruise along
the Malacca River in the raining and make a wish one day I should back here and
try to spend 3 days to explore with relaxing and no rush. Honestly, I love to
discover places without rush. Rushing is suck while we are going to explore
right.
Tips while raining in your holiday and it is not like what you expected.
1 Drink water
as much as you can.
2 Using
umbrella but it is annoy sometimes. I prepare use rain jacket or simply rain coat.
3 Put phone
or camera on waterproof case so you and I still can take photo even raining
without worry it will be broke
4 If you
are discovering bring suitcase or backpack make sure you already put water coat
or cover on your bag so it will not wet. Even it’s not heavy rain.
5 Better
use sandal or simple shoes which it will not make you feel uncomfortable when
walking under rain.
I wish you
will enjoy your holiday. Remember if you are holiday under rain. Perhaps, in
that day you are not sick but others day you will get sick. After walking or
discovering you should take shower and clean your hair with warm water under
shower. Then drink hot tea, that is the best way to recover your body after
getting wet. Have fun and enjoy every moment.
Happy Story start from You
