Galeria Perdana, muzium di Kedah, Malaysia
Galeria Perdana is a museum on Langkawi island that displays gifts, awards, and souvenirs received by Malaysia's leadership over the years. The facility consists of three connected buildings with two stories each, set within landscaped gardens and filled with objects made of wood, glass, crystal, porcelain, textiles, and musical instruments.
The museum opened in 1995 as a way to share with the public gifts and honors received during an important period of Malaysian leadership. This decision to open the collection allowed visitors to view objects that represent decades of international relations and recognition.
The museum displays gifts that reflect Malaysia's connections with many countries and cultures around the world. Visitors can see how these objects represent friendship and diplomatic relations built over decades.
The museum has paved pathways through its gardens and free parking directly in front, making it easy to access by car. Restrooms, a prayer room, and a small cafe offering snacks and drinks are available to make your visit comfortable.
Beyond artwork and decorative objects, the museum displays an unusual collection of vehicles including a Formula One racing car and a bicycle made from wood. This unexpected mix of exhibits makes the visit surprisingly varied and sets it apart from typical museums.
