Malacca, Malaysia
Jalan Puteri Hang Li Poh, Bukit Cina
N/A
This place is huge! There's a pathway access at the side of the temple. Just follow the brick road. If you managed to hike your way up to the top, you'll be rewarded with a spectacular view. It's quite sad to see so many graves been left unkept and abandoned. The air is quite chilly because of the trees. You might even witness some people hiking there. Free entrance. Wouldn't recommend going at night.

Walked here from town easily. It's quite run-down but interesting to walk around the old (and very old) Chinese graves.
The significance of Bukit Cina to the history of Malacca Sultanate needs to be highlighted by proper signboards. Right now, the largest n oldest Chinese cemetery outside China is just a rundown n neglected cemetery but who were these Chinese who lived n passed away here n were buried on this hill overlooking the Straits of Malacca? How did they get here? Yeah, they perhaps followed the Ming Bride over here but everyone is a father n son with a story to tell. Questions that need explaining . Authorities can do a better job, surely. Bukit Cina is another example of a tourist attraction with rich potential but is largely neglected.
Despite (or maybe because of) being a sprawling old cemetary, Bukit Cina is interesting, makes for a nice walk out of the crowds and the heat.
There's pavement path for jog here. Scenery very nice. But also a little quiet place. Because it is a cemetery, make sure dont get too excited.
Interesting hill cemetary for a walk, seemed like there was a recent wind storm that knocked down a number of trees... cleanup in progress. You can access it via stairs on river side of hill or up a tiny asphalt path that weaves up from the opposite side. Sunset or sunrise from the top would be beautiful, though the walk bsck perhaps a bit spooky.
Centuries old Chinese cemetery that is well worth visiting
Very nice place for a walk. Make sure to climb all the way up !
