   Melaka River Cruise The Melaka River is where the town began and it has played a key role in Melaka's colourful history. Taking a river cruise is like seeing Melaka from the back door. A few decades ago the river was a stinking waterway lined with decaying houses on stilts and the untidy rear side of crumbling shophouses. Yes, there has been a lot of new development but at the same time an effort has been made to preserve many of the historic buildings and bridges along the river. Even the newer buildings have been painted with colourful murals depicting different aspects of Malacca's rich history and culture There are now three jetties, one at each end of the route and one at The Shore. You can begin the cruise from any jetty: Muara Jetty, Taman Rempah Jetty and The Shore Jetty.
