arab city - malacca 2010

From the impeccable detail of its architecture to the authentic recreation of a souk of Arab inspired bazaars and a dazzling array of ambient restaurants, these are the many facilities for visitors to discover and relish within its compound. Arab City Melaka is a place that is both unique and memorable. Aspects of every Arab city is brought to the forefront and represented at the hub of Arab City Melaka.

The bazaars are laden with wares from jewelry to fabrics sourced from Algeria to Yemen. Restaurants serve authentic regional Arab cuisine with herbs and spices of Morocco and Syria. The perfumes and oils of the spa exclusively for men and women are brought in from Egypt and Tunisia.

In all its essence, Arab City Melaka translates to a one-stop destination of caravan loads of every and all things from the Arab world within walking distance. Now, that's something to write home about.

1st Reason: Tourists Simply Adore Malacca!
As a tourist attraction Melaka has displayed its potential among larger Malaysian tourists states. Despite its intimacy of scale Melaka is highly visible, welcoming over 6 million visitors a year to its locales teeming with emblems of its legacy. Monuments, ruins and traditional architecture add a unique contrast to the skyline of its modern cityscape.

2nd Reason: The Special Bond That Goes Way Back
The draw to the remarkable city of Melaka is many fold and impossible to ignore. Besides its warm people, sunny shores and recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, there is also sentimentality associated with Melaka’s historical significance. 


Arab traders were among the first ancient mariners who plied the old trade routes and converged at Melaka’s bustling port. Having shared a meaningful past with the Arab world it seemed fitting to revisit that legacy for the future with the advent of Arab City Melaka.
