Melaka Trip '08 – Day 02 : Colorful Melaka

Since the weather outside is frightful and I’m definitely not feeling delightful what with being under the weather and all, the last entry on my visit to Melaka 2 weeks ago will hopefully remind me of the brighter day that we had on that trip.

While some of the restored buildings have some questionable lighting selections (what’s with the red lights on the buildings at Jonker’s St anyway?), quite a few of the buildings in and around Melaka really stood out due to it’s vibrant paint jobs. While one could argue that these buildings would technically should not be painted in such colors in an area listed as a heritage site, I feel that they offer a refreshing respite to the eyes after a day of looking at buildings that have been restored back to their original appearance. These vivid splashes of color in and around Bandar Melaka was definitely quite memorable.
