Top Museums in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Inside a mall, very small, can finish in 30 mins. Not recommended for kids above 9 years, as they will find it boring.

Very fun if you have some free time in Kuala Lumpur. Wasn’t the most life changing experience but definitely worth a visit if you enjoy interactive illusions and good photo opportunities. Does seem like it could do with a renovation and perhaps some more illusions as we did everything in about 20 minutes. Huge plus was the incredibly friendly and helpful staff who helped show us the best places for pictures!

Not suitable for solo travellers, but I got lucky and met another one to go around with and take photos! Everything is set up for photos taken in pairs, so please be aware 😌

This place did feel a little tired, and it was about 7 photo points mixed with a few wooden puzzles. I was not blown away by it and won’t return, but it was an okay experience :)

Veru good but kinda small
There is z restaurant
Quite popular
But the queuing kinda long
So i skip

A small gallery with archives and historical information about KL … we saw a long line for entry into the famous bakery which looked great but couldn’t explore

Soooo I came for the gallery but I didn’t know there’s a famous pastry shop here with a long snaking queue. Initially I was like wah go in gallery also such long queue, thankfully the pastry shop staffs were going around remind people that this is the queue to get pastry not to get into the gallery.

Managed to get in to the gallery with no queue. Very informative place on the past rich history of KL. Enjoyed reading every panel of stories.

A very small museum; 2-storeys high. Those on the 2nd level aren't as fun & interactive as those in the first level.

You can take lots of photos at first level, and you can ask the staff for help. They are all very friendly and helpful!

The location of the place is not ideal. Located at the KL tower (Menara KL), the place is not easy to find. We went on a Wednesday. It just stopped raining when we arrived.

The place is closed when its raining. We were lucky. The entrance is steep, and due to the rain, slippery.
Not ideal for elderly.

But for kids, teens especially, they will love it. Very instagrammable.

I spent less than 30minutes there because theres nothing much to do except for photo taking, so you may want to include KL tower for your plans or do something within the area to make the trip worth it.

This was a fun experience and my kids enjoyed the experience. Note that you need to remove your shoes as you enter. Tickets can be bought at the house so no need to buy it in advance.

Having so much fun when it's not crowded. The museum are not big yet it's a fun little museum located nearby Lot 10 mall and next to the Starbucks. You may enter to Ansa hotel entrance and it's located at 1st floor.
If you interested in puzzles and taking pictures this small places definitely great to hangout for an hour or so.
The ticket can be purchased on the spot (walk-in) either online.

Small place but we had fun. Luckily there weren’t many people so we could take our time and take lots of photos. Staffs are very helpful. They show us how to take pictures once we entered.

Really its house, very small But the experience is not bad and the ideas is new . The staff are very kind and helpful they explain how to make up side down pictures.

Free entry.

A great place to know #kualalumpur history. And you can view modern kuala lumpur model in scale. No que for KL city gallery.

A long Que over long weekend.
There is cafe attached in this place. But the system of the cafe in reserving seat and ordering food is not friendly. Do not take a seat even when you see the empty seat. Check with the receptionist at the main entrance before que to avoid any misunderstanding or disappointment.

Free of charge if you want to visit this place.
Has 2 floors and you can see on the first floor mainly telling about malaysia history.
And the second floor more into decorative and photospot.
The air cond lil bit hot.

The city galley (free entree) displays models of the city and icon KL buildings. Quite a small place and can be covered in less than 20 minutes. We were excited when we first visited more than 10 years ago but that feeling was missing on this second visit. There are rooms for improvement in the maintenance aspect.

This is a very interesting place to visit. It is close to KL Tower. Fun activity, Small place with few photogenic options.

Kids will enjoy it a lot & adults a bit. The roller tunnel should be brighter. It is very dark inside, I couldn't feel the effect much. The infinity room also should have brighter lights, so people can feel it without turning on the flash in mobile phones, which is killing the infinity feeling.

A good place with a blend of old charm of KL (the small but awesome gallery) and good selection of patisserie and beverages. The best way to get a seat is to reserve ahead or to reserve by walk in. I like the ambiance in the cafe, where there are handicrafts on sale and tour. A good place to have light F&B while sightseeing at Dataran Merdeka.

For parking, there’s ample parking lots under the Dataran Merdeka.

Love this place! 👏 It felt more like a family joint, rather than a museum ❤ The staff is so friendly and welcoming to the visitors! Yes the place is not big, but the amount of time you want to spend at 1 illusion spot, will be long, trust me 😂 Unless you're not into getting perfect photos! 😝 The staff here? Omg, they're top class! They will offer to take photos for you, and even showed you the perfect angle. They are friendly, jovial, informative and willing to answer any question you have about the illusions. For such a small place, my 5y and I, spent more than 1hr there 🤗 Oh, there was an art & craft section as well that day (with additional fee for the artwork of course). All in all, it was a superb day for my daughter and I. We'll come back next time, for sure! 😘 Well done to all the staff there 👏 Keep up the friendliness 😘 This attitude is rare to find in most places nowadays. Sad but true. U guys are amazing! 💪

I don’t how to start talking about upside down house, first of all it’s sooooo small and I was shocked that the entry cost 24rm for a small place , I can’t say it’s a bad experience but it’s only for kids . I have enjoyed the ten minutes and it’s only for ten minutes. And to be honest I was amazed by the decorations and how is everything is really upside down

It’s fun place to take funny and amazing pictures with friends or family. Suggest referring their official IG to get ideas how to take good pictures. Also better choose non peak hours as the house is a bit small.

No waiting time on Sunday cos this place is actually not worth visiting.

Just a small house with 4 areas to take photos. Lighting is bad and pretty run down with minimal maintenance. Wasted RM54 as a family.
