It was a wonderful day in this museum that encapsulated the essence of Sarawak's history and culture while allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the experience. Very well-thought out and remarkably beautiful displays and infrastructure. It was a pity that some of the exhibits with interactive options were not available that day, but would definitely go back for another visit. The best RM20 I have ever spent 💖

This museum was blown away by the quality and variety of exhibits on display. From the moment I walked in, I was transported to Sarawak local art, history, and culture, and was truly impressed by the attention to detail and thought that went into each and every exhibit.

One of the highlights of my visit was on the 3rd floor. The accompanying information and context provided by the museum really helped me understand and appreciate the piece on a deeper level.

The museum staff were also incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, making my visit even more enjoyable.

Overall, I had an incredible experience at Sarawak museum and would highly recommend a visit to anyone who loves art, history, and culture. Whether you're a seasoned museum-goer or a first-time visitor, there is something for everyone to enjoy and learn.

It's a big muzeum and need to spend at least 2hrs as There are 4 levels. There are so many things to see and educational too. The view is also nice. I arrived at 3pm, walk in, but haven't finished going around the muzeum. Definitely will come back.

Its worth the visit and enriching experience.The new museum also have various interactive exhibits which instil the interest to explore on the topic. Make sure u stop by at the Restaurant. For coffee lovers do try their various coffee drinks their offer. if you are lucky enough do ask for their hidden “coffe kayangan” which not in their menu. i just come to know abt it after told by their friendly barista😄.

Time: Weekend, 3pm
Crowd: Average, No waiting/queing
Suitable for kids: Yes
Recommended time spent: 4 hours

A grand and modern museum, beautifully curated for all age levels, with in-depth historical information about Sarawak from the paleolithic age, up to the medieval times, The Brunei Sultanate reign, James "White Rajah" Brooke era, and the modern day Sarawak.

This is not your average museum (at least for the Sarawakian), all 5 galleries featured interactive learning experience not only suitable for kids, but for the adults as well. Lots of interesting stuffs to learn and absorb, so make sure to arrive early so that you can spend your day in peace.

Galleries closed at 4:30. Just bare that in mind. Overall, fantastic experience, exactly what is needed in Sarawak right now to showcase our culture to the whole world.

It’s a nice museum, but sadly it is temporary close if there is an important events taking place there. 🎆🎇🏛
But I am glad that this place is still in good condition. 🏛🏛🏛1⃣8⃣9⃣0⃣
All artificial and everything in that old museum is moving to the new museum that is more larger. 🏛🏛🏛
This building have been around for a very long time. 🏛🏛🏛
The last time visiting this place was 2015 or 2016. 🥹

At the white building (Arts Museum) now is the exhibition "orang Sarawak". Very interesting and a must-see. Modern style exhibition: very good descriptions, video's in English (Bahasa subtitles), audio's in English and Bahasa and interactive maps.
One of the pictures shows the floorplan and what to see. Takes 1-2 hours depending on interest. Free admission. Exhibition is wheelchair accessible! No aids however for blind or visually impaired.

Really good place to discover history about Sarawak, its culture and its people. Got a gallery specially for young generations to show the importance about preserving our river and play a role to build a better Sarawak.

Improve so so much. The largest in Sea and looking modern. Expect a lot of potential in the future like collaboration or other exhibition on display
