Note: Check your address before purchasing an online ticket as this museum currently do not yet support online ticket purchase (Klook or Trip).

Anyways, tbh, I didn't expect myself to visit this place as I have visited the Sun Yat Sen Museum, but due to a mistake / misunderstanding in an invalid purchase of tickets online, I am graced with this opportunity to visit the museum and is also meet the owner which was very friendly and engaging, providing my friends and I, a very in depth yet also a very concise explanation of the entire history before we dived deep into enjoying the exhibits.

A very well curated museum documenting the works of Dr Sun Yat Sen during his fight for the Chinese Revolution, as well as the struggle of the Straits Chinese during the 2nd World War and the Japanese Invasion and Occupation.

Entrance is only at RM10 per adult....

The ticket price of RM 10 for adults was quite affordable.

One highlight of the visit was the opportunity to capture photos with numerous historical figures. However, it was disappointing to find that many of these figures were displayed behind glass that was not always clean, which affected the quality of the photos. Overall, it was a worthwhile experience, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about this significant period in...
