Taman Bunga Merdeka, a park in Melaka, Malaysia, also known as Independent Flower Garden, was originally known as the Coronation Park. It has also been known as the Melaka Transportation Museum. Located along Jalan Kota and facing the People's Museum and other museums, it is one of few parks in the city center. It was built by the British in 1953 and named to memorialize the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II,when the park still fronted on the sea (landfill has removed its seafront since then). The park is part of a UNESCO World Heritage-recognized historic district, the Historic Cities of the Straits of Malacca listing.
