The Baba & Nonya Heritage Museum is the place to come if you want to learn more about the Peranakan culture in Malacca.

Also known as Straits Chinese, the Peranakans came from China and settled in Malaysia where they mixed their traditional culture with Malay traditions to create a unique new way of living in Malaysia.

You can see this firsthand at the museum which is located in a typical Baba & Nonya townhouse which is adorned with gorgeous period decorations and gives you a glimpse of how people would have lived in the days of old in Malacca.
