The ancient city of Malacca, in Malaysia, was ruled by the Dutch Empire for many years. A variety of architectural designs were created during their reign and are still in use now. These buildings are now well-liked tourist attractions in Malacca. Among those constructed in the Dutch style during the Dutch era are Christ Church and Stadthuys. These two Red Square locales were used in films such as Kuch Meeta Ho Gaye and Naam Shabana. These places were surprisingly used as Goa in both movies.
