The stilt house is an example of typical Malaysian architecture. Melaka and George Town, historic cities located in the Straits of Malacca, were added to the list of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites in July 2008. Groups of buildings with features from 17th century Holland and 18th century England can be seen in the cities as they were once ruled by the two countries. The heritage site contains Malaysian, Chinese, Indian, European and local Baba & Nyonya culture.[Photo/Xinhua]
