It was okay place to visit. The room was super quiet and some of the room does not have good ligthing. It was dimly lit. When I went there I was the only person there. Not a single person or tour guide or a guard to keep watch the museum. Tho it is an interesting place to visit to know the history of islam and malayu in melaka if you are interested. Lots of instruments, tools, keris/sword, traditional clothes & etc. Free entry if you use the tickets from The discovery of the body...

Giving this place this ranking because it was closed when we visited this. Like most of the museums in MALACCA were closed for unknown reasons. Some were closed due to renovations while others were closed due to unknown reason. So, if you are going towards this museum, make sure that this place is open! Insta id:...
