A Golden Giant in Malacca You Can’t Miss

#malaccaguide While walking through Malacca, I stumbled upon a striking golden statue of a bodybuilder holding huge weights. It’s part of Boon Leong International Gym, which honours Datuk Wira Gan Boon Leong, a well-known Malaysian bodybuilding icon. The statues and plaques made the place feel like an outdoor mini museum. It’s such a fun and unexpected stop during a heritage walk. I couldn’t resist taking photos with the sculptures and reading about Boon Leong’s inspiring achievements. For something different in Malacca, this spot offers a mix of history and fitness culture.
