I was born in one of the most interesting cities in Malaysia. It has a rich, colourful history and many parts of the city have hardly changed at all during the last five centuries. However, nowadays, it is (75) ......... longer the trade centre that it once than It is difficult to imagine that at one time its harbour used to be visited by over 2,000 ships a week, and that the huge warehouses along the quayside would have been full of spices and silks, jewels and tea.The old city centre is small, which makes it very easy to explore on foot. A river neatly divides the town not only physically but in spirit, too. On one side, you find many grand houses, but on crossing the river, you find yourself in ancient Chinatown, where you really take a step back into the past.It is great fun to wander through the colourful, noisy backstreets. As well as having shops that sell a wide range of clothes and shoes, some of these streets are also famous for high quality antiques. Unfortunately, most of the bargains disappeared many years ago. However,if you look around carefully, you can still come across an interesting souvenvir.
