St John'S Fort (Kota St John)

Unclaimed

A fun spot away from the crowds of tourists at the red square area and Jonker Street. I walked down to St Johns Fort. Not much to see but it's pretty and peaceful and a nice walk from the heritage center.

We came here by walking from our accommodation and we loved the nice walk. There were a few stray dogs here, but they were fine. We walked all the way to the fort and saw the slight views of the water though some of it was covered by trees, it’s a great place to go if you love historical places. It is free to visit here. There are some large cannons here which are fun! “Jonique Life” If you find value in our reviews please consider following our social media outlets on Facebook and Instagram as we highlight magical places you can add to your ever growing bucket list.

Peaceful little landmark but not much. Friendly monkeys at least if you don’t take food with you. Entrance - Free History - There are explanations and signs Monkeys - Mostly friendly Time - around 30 min to visit everything there Enjoy

Went there on a PH monday, was rather empty and quiet. Off the main road, leading to the fort a small one lane road path. Limited parkings available. The fort was well preserved with steps dating back to the war times. Small fort overlooking to melaka straits. Nice small place to read about the history of melaka. Not elderly friendly as its purely steps but my dad in his late 60' still was able to hike it. Worth coming for the view. Free parking, no entrance fee.
