my next visit was to Malacca..
Malacca was founded by Parameswara. According to a popular legend, Parameswara was resting under a tree near a river while hunting, when one of his dogs cornered a mouse deer. In self-defence, the mouse deer pushed the dog into the river. Impressed by the courage of the deer, and taking it as a propitious omen of the weak over coming the powerful, Parameswara decided on the spot to found an empire on that very spot. He named it "Melaka" after the tree under which he had taken shelter, the Melaka tree.
All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware.” – Martin Buber
