Museums in Malaysia

Museums of Malaysia (4 February, 2006)
Museums of Malaysia

In the old days, each state in Malaysia would have only one museum, which is the depository of all the state's keepsakes. Not anymore. Nowadays, there is a museum for practically any imaginable topic, with history-rich states like Malacca and Penang vying to outdo each other on number of museums. The private sectoar has also joined in the fray in coming up with their own museums. On this page I catalog the museums in Malaysia that I have discovered, listing them by state and individually.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
