Geology Museum — Attraction in Perak

Very interesting and informative place. No one was there when we arrived. Just registered our name on the book at the reception counter. About half way through the museum, then came a man in charged of the place. It’s free entrance. There’s a big interactive game like snake&ladder for kids to enjoy at the early part of the exhibition. There’s also a moving dinosaur in the middle towards the end of the museum; quite scary at first.

Loads of information with artifacts, old photos etc. We loved the gems part where we can learn and explore more about garnets, jades, and diamonds. Love it. Lots of pretty stones available as well.

It's perfect for a school tour because there's so much to learn and see. You can easily go through the whole museum in about an hour, which is just the right amount of time to enjoy everything without feeling rushed.

You have to take off your shoes to enter, so it's clean. Walking around bare-footed gave the place a homely feeling! No need to pay any entrance fee, just register yourself in the visitors book at the front counter. Though the museum is relatively small, it is well organised and well kept. The exhibits and information are easy to comprehend and make geology sound so interesting! Would definitely recommend on a trip to Ipoh. Do take note of the opening times...
