Malacca River
Coordinates: 2°12′N 102°15′E / 2.200°N 102.250°E
The Melaka River (Malay: Sungai Melaka) which flows through the middle of Melaka City in Melaka, Malaysia, was a vital trade route during the heyday of Malacca Sultanate in the 15th century.
The river starts from the foothills in the neighbouring state of Negeri Sembilan and feeds into the Straits of Malacca. A USD$100 million (RM350 million) infrastructure project to revive and rejuvenate the river which is the central to Melaka as an historic city was carried out. This has included construction of a tidal barrage, restoration of buildings and bridges, dredging, concrete river banks with river walkways. Land reclamation projects have extended the river mouth further into the Straits.
