It is called Butterfly farm but there&#39;s more than just butterflies at the place! Many insects from spiders to beetles to reptiles etc. So many things go explore! There is a wide (enough) variety of butterflies. It is a child friendly place for sure, my son loved the place. It will, however, be better if it&#39;s better maintained.

It is a really really pretty place. It&#39;s a very comfortable place to be in. It is almost a dream place - - - a wholesome mix of European and Asian architectural buildings, full of their very own Vietnamese culture.Every staff of the stalls or restaurants we have been to was SO FRIENDLY. Their services were superb. FOOD TASTE SO GOOD.

A very good educational 4-5 level museum. Gives a really good history of the Vietnam War as everything was pretty detailed. And there are also recounts from various people involved during the war. However, maybe it was too detailed, it gets a little too boring with hefty amounts of reading.Not for fainted hearted though as some photos are a little bloody. Also, do note. it starts from the top level then down.

Mount Pulai is one very nice place to be close to nature and be energised by the fresh air and view. However, it is a rather steep journey up, challenging your resilience as you progress, as you really won't be able to enjoy the surroundings that much while panting. It will be a nice experience to push yourself to surpass your limit. It takes about 1.5hr to reach the top, to be at the same height as the clouds. We got to see some plants and animals and rare insects which is quite interesting. We visited at 7.30am and by the time we came down at about 11am, it is starting to get packed. So if you want to enjoy some exclusive peace and breeze, it's better to go earlier. 
It is open Tue to Sun, 7am to 3pm. MUST VISIT!!!

1.5hr steep trail to 654M ⛰️ – Gunung Pulai (Mount Pulai)

1.5hr steep trail to 654M ⛰️

Address: 9 Jalan Hang Lekir, 75200 Melaka, Malaysia
Ambiance: Simple, Cozy, clean enough
Items ordered for 210 ringgit: Soya grass jelly (jug), butterfly pea tea (pot), Assam fish, fried calamari, Nyonya Chicken, Stir fry potato leaves, 2 X Butterfly pea rice, 1 X plain rice

There was a long queue at this place, so it's recommended to make a reservation beforehand. The servers were quite slow, maybe because they got to manage two sides of the restaurant. I will rate the overall experience 7.5/10. The foods tasted really good, the calamari is fried to perfection, chicken is so creamy and well marinated, the butterfly pea rice is sooooo fragrant!! We ordered the fish but it wasn't served even when we finished the 3dishes. We thought they forgot about it so we said we will cancel it. However, 5minutes later, they said we have to accept the fish and placed it pm our table, with the reason that it is already prepared. Oh well, we took it, the fish is flavourful and fresh but we were just feeling a little unbalanced from this small episode. Overall, everything is good, just hope that there will be improvement in the service.
