Learn about the history and culture of Melaka’s Portuguese diaspora at this enclave. The Portugese Settlement is home to the Kristang people—who are of mixed Portuguese and Malay heritage—and has gained popularity as a culinary hub. The main square of the settlement has several restaurants and bars, where you can try amazing seafood and Debal Curry (or Devil’s Curry), a traditional dish of the community. Plan your trip to late June to catch the celebratory Feast of Saint Pedro and if you visit during the weekend, there are also cultural performances that are put on. You can visit the Portuguese Settlement on a history tour of Melaka.
