Worth to stop by if you're visiting the National Mosque, just on opposite side of the road. Very educational and the items displayed were impressive. Would've been more interesting if they had provided audio guides or a guided tour.
i have an interest in art so museums are usually a big draw for me. there seems a general lack of good museums in south east asia. in KL though, this is probably the museum to go to. it's quite nice, fairly nice exhibits, but only good for a few hours or so. mostly about islamic arts.
Highly reccomended and a must see during your visit to KL. I loved the different displays and the story that they told. Quite extensive collection of holy books which especially impressed me. One of the best musea I have visited in Asia.
I really like it here, there's a lot of information to be studied. A lot of replicas are on display. There's 5 domes here (counting the upside-down dome), with lovely motives. I personally loves the blue one.

I left feeling that there was rather more that could be done to improve the visitor...

If you have time and want to learn about muslim history and architecture, you are in the place. The museum is really peacefull, and fresh to walk in
Even non-muslims like me will find this museum fascinating and a real great, not expensive entrance fee, you will need to get taxi from Pasar Seni or KL Sentral
