Bukit Cina
Bukit Cina is the largest cemetary outside China with tombs dating back to the Ming Dynasty.
In 1459, the Ming Emperor of China sent his daughter Princess Hang Li Poh to marry Sultan Mansor Shah, the reigning ruler of Malacca. She had an entourage of 500 ladies-in-waiting. The Sultan gave her Bukit Cina, a hill near the town, for their residence.
