Assalamualaikum,

soon after the alien exhibition...

This new addition of tourist attraction is located near the Dataran Pahlawan at Banda Hilir Melaka was in our radar once we reached there last Saturday. This only gyro tower in Malaysia enables the tourist to have broad perspective view of Banda Hilir 110 meters from top.

After lining up at the counter, the attendent told us that the ride on the tower will cost us RM20 but if we produce our MyKad, only RM10 will be charged per pax. Looks like this MyKad has its use after all. Hiks.
This coach is a circular shaped compartment that will take us on top of the tower and rotate slowly to observe the scenery around Melaka. The ride will last approximately 7 minutes according to the attendant.

The view up here was spectacular and breathtaking. We can also see the shores and the sea of Straits of Melaka.


Soon after the ride, we headed to the Dataran Pahlawan shopping complex next to the Menara Taming Sari Melaka. It seems that they are having a Raya Show for Astro and some of their stars like Mawi and Mila was present. But I forgot to take photo of them. Hiks.

After that we went to pick a place to break our fast and chose Burger King. It was there that I met my ex-student, Ariffin. He told me that he is now studying in Technical University of Melaka. Good to know that my ex-student had the chance to further his studies.

Later we headed to the Jonker Walk which is situated at Jalan Hang Tuah in Melaka. This place is like the night market anywhere in Malaysia. This is where Sodep got his friends some souvinirs. Me on the other hand was too tired to enjoy the environment.

Got back home after that to end what was a very fun day at Melaka.

Until then, take care now bye bye then...
