The Dutch Square can be found in Melaka and is named as such due to the influence of the Dutch when they colonized the place in the 1700s. Christ Church, as seen on this photo, is the oldest functioning Protestant church in Malaysia and it is located at the center of the square. The church and the surrounding buildings has the distinctive color scheme of the Dutch era and is matched with the brick stones covering the square.
Melaka River was an important trade route in the 15th century. As explorers and colonizers come, the influence can be seen on the architecture of the buildings found along the banks of the river. I wanted to join the river cruise but my feet were tired from walking around. So, I settled for this shot along the river. I didn’t bring my tripod so I improvised. I propped my camera on the broad railing with the lens hood supporting the weight of the lens and set it on timer. Voila! This is the finish product.
