Travelog for: Cassiopeia

Independence Square was the site where the Malaysian flag was hoisted on 31st August 1957 when independence was gained from the British Empire. Across the street I also can see the Sultan Abdul Samad Building which used to house the government offices back then.

Central Market used to be a wet market, now turned into an arts, cultural, & handicrafts centre.

Today we visited The Rice Museum in Kedah. As Kedah has long history of rice planting this museum is very popular. When we arrived there are many eager visitors already there. The paddy fields nearby are beautiful too!

Today Aliah and I sent off Blaze to France. Later, we went and visit one of the temple in Aliah's hometown, Kangar.

Here is Kuala Perlis and I'm enjoying the evening breeze...

Here is Masjid Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah and also known as the Blue Mosque. It is the landmark of Shah Alam, the Selangor state capital where Aliah study. I was told that the minarets is the tallest in the world 

Visit Melaka means Visit Malaysia. So, here I am at Melaka the Malaysia's historic city. A Famosa, Stadthuys and Christ Church are the most prominent reminders of the European's presence in Melaka.

I'm at Banda Hilir where various museums, Proclamation of Independence Memorial and Melaka's Sultanate Palace are located but too bad it's closed 

There are many trishaw in the city. I cannnot see a bullock cart around so I just take picture with a replica 

I'm thinking about getting some souvenirs so I'm heading to Jonker Street. Many antiques can be found here too.

Hang Kasturi's Mausoleum also located at Jonker Street. I was told Hang Kasturi is one of the Melaka legendary knights. The most famoust one is Hang Tuah and Hang Jebat. Now, Jonker Street is known as Hang Jebat Road but local people still called it Jonker Street.

I saw some worship places on the way back such as Kampong Kling Mosque and some temples.

I'm at Muar and I'm visiting the Sultan Ibrahim Mosque and sightseeing at Muar river.

One last time touring Melaka before I'm leaving Melaka. I'm planning to go to Mini Malaysia and Mini Asean where it house traditional houses of the Malaysia and Asean region but I'm too late. It's closed by the time I get there and the guard won't let me go in  Frustrated, I just posed in front of the entrance. I also saw some interesting replicas on the way to station so we stop for pictures.

Dayabumi Complex houses the Kuala Lumpur Main Post Office so I will be departing to Taiwan from here. Selamat tinggal Malaysia. Goodbye
