Back to traditional Christmas at the Portuguese Settlement in Ujong Pasir

Lighted up green: Green is the colour of illumination at this home in Jalan Erida.

MALACCA: Always overshadowed by the numerous and varied commercial decorative paraphernalia and miniature multi-coloured illumination of the festive season, the Portuguese Settlement in Ujong Pasir in recent years has been stressing much on traditional, religious and in-house cultural aspects and facets of Christmas.

This is to fascinate visitors, local and overseas tourists dropping by the village by the hundreds nightly.
