What’s CNY like in Melaka - the Shopping!

Of course the main reason to drop by Jonker Walk is to shop till your arms are full and weary. And boy have that been made possible.

After dinner, the women got into negotiation mode. The stallkeepers rose to the challenge by arming themselves with mile-wide smiles.

Oh the tingling anticipation!

I didn’t snap photos of every shop, but here’s a rough idea of what’s on offer.

For the nostalgic at heart, there were lots of stalls selling old curios, finely sewn cheong sams, nyonya kebayas, ting-ting candy, calligraphy banners, artwork, et cetera. Unfortunately I missed out on snapping photos of those! Sorry!
