- Melaka: River Walk in Malacca, Malaysia. Enjoy walking? You'll love this river walk in Malacca, Malaysia. As you walk along the Melaka river you'll see lots of typical Malay buildings, along with some amazing street art. The bridges along the Melaka River reminded me of Venice. Hope you enjoyed the video.

i love riverwalks. This one is so awesome with all the wall art. it's too bad the shops etc were closed.
Yes, it was a great walk, and the wall art was really impressive.
We love KL, in fact we are due to go again in July. Easy to get around and fantastic food!
Have fun, it's a fantastic country and city, one of my favourites.
Yes Darren, you seem so stoked! Nice explore off the beaten track you had there. My favourite place to go for a walk is in the mountains, always seems to bring clarity. Keep having fun mate! Nick :)
Indigo Traveller I wish I was fit enough to go into the mountains and hiking more. I prefer it when there’s a cable car up the steepest part of the mountain and then I can walk around 😆
Haha fair enough mate! Each to their own :)
That looks like a delightful place to visit.
Yes, you should visit.
Water is always a divine entity...when there is water serenity comes together...
Yes, love being around water, so relaxing.
Hello Darren hope all is well.
We love Malacca and normally stay up river (Swiss apartments).
The walk into china town is very nice and we miss it very much. I particularly miss Sids Pub (now Gravey Baby).
We also love KL and hope to go back next year.
We enjoy your videos and how much you enjoy the food. By the way our favourite place in KL is Lot 10 food hall (the best kway teow). My mums Malay hokkein so im biased with the food.
TahniahMelaka airsungai jernihkehijauan
Jangan lupa naik cruise nya bro, sangat menyenangkan
Brought back lotsa memories!
Cool, enjoyed the trip here. Nice city.
I really enjoyed this video. Very few people around. I like to walk around places like this.
I read the in the comments you are going to Putrajaya. Is the Botanical Gardens on your to do list? I went there last autumn on a Friday around noonish. I was the ONLY visitor there. It was amazing walking around as if it were my own private grounds. Even the workers were taking a siesta (a nap). Then I heard the call to prayer in the early afternoon (from the Pink Mosque across the river). Just a very peaceful, serene experience. Tip: At Putrajaya station you can catch a local bus that runs through town for $1. I told the driver I was going to the Gardens and he called it out for me when we arrived about 45 minutes later. During that time we went around the city and I took pictures of the locals, the government buildings, Pink Mosque, etc. You may have been to Putrajaya before and know this already but I thought I'd share my experience b/c it was a wonderful day. Btw, I took a taxi from the Pink Mosque back to the station for only 15RM. The driver gave me the history of the place so it was great. - Dave
dry5555 thanks for the information. Haven’t planned where I’m going yet but will probably stop there a night or two since there seems a lot to see.
500 plus views ....come on guys give him a thumbs up ! Hes takin the time to make these videos. Just good no bullshit videos. Thank you Darren.
Thank you for watching :)
Always nice exploring with you. Beautiful place. I enjoy strolling on the beach or just in a park along riverbanks.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed exploring with me. I do enjoy exploring places like this which are much quieter and relaxing.
Maybe should try umbai fish restraunt..roast garupa with chili and nasi lemak
..
Darren, This was a lovely video! The street art was terrific. I too enjoy it when you are off the beaten path in less traveled areas. My favorite walk is to be in the woods away from lights and sounds of the city, just hearing nature! I'm always happy to see a video from you. Thanks, Cheryl
Cheryl Ownbey thanks, glad you enjoyed the video. Yes quite places amongst nature are great places to explore. The more I visit tourist attractions, the more I realise I just want to visit places like yesterday.
Beautiful riverwalk... like an Asian version of the San Antonio riverwalk! Just kidding, but I'm certainly considering Malaysia as a retirement destination. The people, food, and architecture seem so wonderful. The weather is pretty hot though, much like summers in Florida where I now live.
Go for it! Head over here for a trip first but it comes highly recommended !
Hello Darren
I’m going to Malaysia ( both kl and malacca ) in 20 something days. I’ve been to kl 6 times already but I have never been to malacca. Do you have any ideas of nice restaurants. One more question how may times have you been to Malaysia Darren ?
Keep up the good work Darren.
Cheers from Australia
Hey, have fun. I have no idea how many times I've been to Malaysia, don't keep a count of the places I visit to be completely honest. There are so many places to eat in Malacca, that I didn't frequent one place enough to remember its name. I'm not that observant to be honest.
Thanks Darren keep up the good work mate
New Orleans has always been my favorite place to explore on foot...been quite a few years since I've done so, though
I've never been but from what I've seen it looks like an interesting city to explore.
This is a lovely video. Feeling a bit homesick :(
BEAUTIFUL...
It is, really enjoyed the walk.
Thanks a lot Darren
Thanks for watching, Lior.
Another nicely produced vlog Darren, like you I love those less traveled places. Loved that fallen down roof over the river and what looked like stepping stones. 👍🙂
James Angrave yes, the tourist attractions are just too crowded and no fun to explore at all. Only saw a handful of people on the walk, and most were locals.
A small world Darren ... I visited Malacca for a short day trip a few weeks ago...saw a big monitor lizard in the river during the boat ride. Heard that they keep the river clean. Nice trip to Malaysia but I am really liking Chiang Mai ... going on 4 months already.
That's good that you are enjoying Chiang Mai. I enjoyed visiting the city but found there wasn't much to do after a few visits.
Nice video ☺. These walking videos are simply so relaxing to watch. And yeah walking down the streets or a nice park is what I like :)
Thank you, glad you enjoy the videos :)
hi dazza a lot of the bars/restaurants open around 6sh along the river,,really like walking around the streets of hong kong the smells and atmosphere of the place also the harbour front of yokahama is a very picturesque walk
andy stubbs thanks for watching Andy. Ah that’ll make sense since I’m working at night! Hoping to get out and about at night on Saturday.
Lancashirelad it was 1pm, they obviously don’t cater for Brits 😂
Nice job. I'm curious how much things cost such as your rented apartment(s), food, Beer, Coffee, transportation...in general, the cost of living. Keep up the good work.
I am going to do a video about the cost of living in Malaysia.So, keep a look out soon.
I’m still waiting to visit Melaka & Kuala Lumpur 🇲🇾 after the Coronavirus
Good luck! It's a cool place to visit.
Indeed the Melaka river walk is fantastic if you love arts and history.
You can walk down further up the river till you come across traditional Malaysia's village named Kampung Morten.
It was named after J.F. Morten, a British officer who was the Commissioner of Land in the early 1920's who granted personal loan to villagers to set-up new village here.
Now, some villagers do offer home stay for you to enjoy real Malaysian experience
Just walk around the villages then you will find lots of home stay here & living Museum at Villa Sentosa
Also, good Nasi Lemak for dinner!
I obviously need to return back to Melaka in the future and explore more of the city.
I live here in Melaka, working in Kuala Lumpur..It is best to walk along the river during the night as a lot more attraction and things to do..you might have miss the Malay Morten Village which have awesome design which they preserve the building for almost centuries.
Yes, I suspect it would be nice at night. Sadly, I do my freelance work into the evening so cannot go out and explore at night.
nice to have you back dazza
mohdridzuanzainal good to see you in the comments :)
Some great things to see there
Thanks for watching Karen, yes, the amount of street art surprised me.
T. Q
Very nice and beautiful video about that place
Parti UBIKAYU thank you :)
I am born here and if you like to see some hand skill you should go about the area where you say you might like to eat from there to jonker street is Hang Jebat Street that you can see a lot of art work plus there is a small turn to the ring of the jonker which you can eat what you called a soya bean curd and they are delicious with soya bean water as well. They sell cherimoya which is called a Dutch fruit a bit like durian but is also called a soar soup.
You should explore the Jonker Walk to when come to Melaka😁
Great adventures- niceone Darren👍
Thank you, it was a fun afternoon exploring.
Thanks for visiting #MelakaCity
You are always welcome here . Do roger if you happen to come again .
Thank you, it's a very historic city, it's a shame that I was ill towards the end of the trip as I would have liked to have put out more videos.
Love melaka
Me too!
i love your video
Thank you 😀
Hope You are feeling Better
Much better, thank you! It's much quieter in the place I'm staying now.
great video can i use yr video for my project ?
Hey, I’m afraid not. It’s all footage I took ages to film.
@@remotedarren ok thanks
My favorite place to go walking is the Yorkshire Moors
Thanks for watching Andrew, and good choice of the Yorkshire Moors, stunning landscapes around there.
Trees.. Any place with lots of trees :3
Tree's are cool, and in this heat, are a tool for survival. The amount of times I've sat under one cooling off.
Theres more too trees than meet the eye =3
Melakariver suitable for film shootinq
Are you back in Malaysia?
Aminuddin Yeop Mahidin I sure am, in Malacca for the rest of the week, then to feed my face and explore in Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya for three weeks.
ExploreList Welcome back. Btw i remember previous episodes your interest in our local football league. The season has started.
Aminuddin Yeop Mahidin great, I might have to check out a game if I get the time. Thanks.
You only covered the touristy part of the river with endless annoying river buses.l used to reside along the river and do not know why visitors find the street art pretty.The house owners were not even given a choice to disapprove.
Really? That is sad, wouldn't have thought that they could just paint on them without permission!
The river kinda smelly
It wasn't too bad, I've smelt worse :D
Rivers don't smell dolce gabbana
