As well as the usual forms of transport, Melaka has some outrageously decorated rickshaws.
When arriving at the express bus terminal, you can catch the local bus into town for RM 0.80. A short walk from the Equatorial Hotel led us to Sunny's Guesthouse which was a good choice and set us back Rm 30 ( Aus$ 11).
A popular way to get around town is via the rickshaw. This traditional mode of transport is dying out across Malaysia. The drivers of Melaka go to great lengths decorating their vehicles with flashing lights, flowers, curtains and sound systems blaring out the "latest " hits, a popular track was Michael Jackson's "Beat It".
