Sky Tower Malacca

Melaka City


Starting on the 43rd floor of the Shore complex and going up to the building's roof, this is – at 153m – Melaka City's highest viewpoint. The panorama of the city is impressive and there are added thrills in the form of a vertigo-inducing glass-floor balcony over the edge where you can have your fear-filled face snapped for posterity.
