Han Chin Pet Soo, Heritage museum in Old Town Ipoh, Malaysia.
The Han Chin Pet Soo museum occupies a three-story white building near the Kinta River, displaying artifacts and exhibits about tin mining history.
Founded in 1893 as a private club for Hakka miners by Leong Fee, the building underwent reconstruction in 1929 and transformed into a museum in 2015.
The museum presents extensive collections highlighting Hakka miners' daily life, migration stories, and traditional practices through photographs and authentic objects.
Visitors need to make reservations 30 days in advance through the official website, with a suggested donation of 10 Malaysian Ringgit for adults.
The first floor exhibits reveal the club's four primary activities: gambling tables, opium smoking areas, entertainment spaces, and secret society meeting points.
