Fort Road (Jalan Kota), Malacca

Fort Road (9 July 2005)


Fort Road, now called Jalan Kota, is a road that goes around St Paul's Hill. It traces the floorplan of Fortaleza de Malaca, the medieval fortification that once encircled the hill, which was then called Malacca Hill.

Today the buildings along Fort Road are converted to museum, in keeping with the trend to turn Malacca into a museum state. The road starts at Dutch Square and ends at the junction with Jalan Chan Koon Cheng, next to the Dutch Graveyard.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
