The Symbol of Malacca - The Dutch Red House

❤️Recommended Reason: The Dutch Red House is not only a historical landmark of Malacca but also a testament to the multicultural fusion of the region. It demonstrates that the Dutch Red House is not just a World Heritage site, but also an important window into the history and culture of Southeast Asia. Built in 1650, it is a building left from the Dutch colonial period, with thick red brick walls, heavy hardwood doors, and the residence of the Dutch governor. It is a symbol of Malacca, where you can take artistic photos. The fountain in front of the Red House was built in 1904 to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Queen Victoria's accession to the throne. The stones used for the fountain were all transported from England and assembled. The fountain features a bust of Queen Victoria, and the pool is exquisitely carved, embodying the rich European ancient architectural style. A highlight in the ancient city of Malacca, the flamboyant trishaws, adorned with all kinds of flowers covering the entire body, playing melodious old tunes from the speakers!
