Liu Men means “six doors”. The
number Six, or (六, LIÙ), not just a literal translation, but it also holds a
special meaning to the Chinese community. Symbolising a smooth journey and travel, and
this is one of the reasons behind the name.
Located within a glance walk distance from
one of main attraction; the Cheng Hoon Teng temple, Liu Men is a celebration
of cultures where we find the perfect harmony of East and West. Throughout the
interior of Liu Men, the 1930s colonial art deco influences can be seen with
its geometric shapes, that have not only been introduced, but embraced. These bold
shapes are added with a distinctly Eastern twist of the vibrant reds symbolising joy or luck in playful chaos, all
play a part in what we identify with in the Chinese Peranakan culture, that is
centered around the families and their neighbors. Invited in with open arms,
our guests are treated with honour and warmth that a family member
would be. From historical landmark to Chinatown
area, Melaka's top destination is as diverse as the country itself, and a stay
in Melaka wouldn’t be complete without it.
