A must visit. Some very old and antique islamic history. The location of the museum is not far from the city centre.

The museum is a little tricky to find if you use public transport but it’s worth going. The 1st floor has some epic replica models of famous mosques and all exhibits have been put together very well. It’s a calm, relaxed environment. There is no dress code and it is well air conditioned.

The only thing I’d improve is using chronology to help people understand which era of Islam they’re looking at in the different exhibits. Maybe a timeline on a wall or defining the exhibits by eras would be helpful.

Enthralled my 14 yr old son. Excellent opportunity to discuss the Islamic domination of sciences during the European Dark Ages. Really interesting and well set out. Several ornate domes a highlight. Scale models of significant mosques are the world a highlight. Museum shop helpful for souvenirs

This museum was one of my favourite museums in KL. It showcases the artifacts from the history of Islam and Islamic civilisation. The museum has two main floors and each floor is divided to different parts where one aspect of Islamic part in the focus. Once in a while, they have special exhibitions. When I visited the museum, there was an exhibition of "Qajar Tiles", which focused on displaying the art of making tiles in the Qajar era Persia.

I braved the heat for a long walk to this museum, because it's supposed to be good but far away from the nearest subway stop. When I got there, I could not get buy a ticket because I was out of cash and no cards were accepted. I had to walk all the way back. Not a good way to spend a big chunk of my afternoon.
