The Holland Square was built between 1641 and 1660 and is considered the oldest Dutch building in Asia. The Red House was built by the Dutch government at the time, using red bricks specially shipped from the Netherlands, so it is commonly known as the Red House. The Red House was originally built as a church, later became a municipal office building and is now a museum. The square has an ancient Christian church built in 1753, a red bell tower built in 1886, and a magnificent European-style classical Victorian fountain built to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Queen Victoria's accession to the throne. There are rickshaws to receive tourists shopping, to nearby attractions within easy reach.

The heart of melaka town is at the red square where all the buildings are painted red. Many tourists attractions are situated here eg St Paul Hill. Take a trishaw ride to explore the area.

Located at the heart of Banda Hilir (city centre) of Melaka. Nice surroundings, well maintained of monuments, trees and gardens. Take some pictures at this square and appreciate the colonial architecture. Nearby the Red Square are Jonker Street, museums to visit, Menara Taming Sari & the major shopping area Mahkota Parade & Dataran Pahlawan Megamall. Best tips; avoid rainy weather and wear cap during hot day. Parking at Jonker Street area or beside Menara Taming Sari area.

Our visit here was just a part of our Malaysia - Singapore trip. This lovely town absolutely deserves a stand-alone trip on its own. I want to come back here. It was really a nice place for students trip.
