Straits and Oriental Museum Ticket in Penang

A huge collection of pottery pieces ranging from imperial pieces to shipwreck pieces. You’ll learn how Chinese pottery has evolved over the years. I also got a personal tour from the curator himself and enjoyed learning more about the history of pottery. Thank you!

A small but informative museum. There are many exhibits detailing shipwrecks and what was unearthed on level one. Staff is friendly. Also, you'll get a can of coffee too!

Money well spent! This place is very informative and tells the history of Penang as an interantional trade port through (mostly Chinese) ceramics. The museum is rather small but very informative and you can opt to join a free guided tour with their amazing staff. Plus, you can get a free drink at the cafe. I highly recommend visiting this place, it's money well spent.

Staffs were very helpful and informative! The tickets included one cup of coffee! Love it and had a great time to learn more about the history and pottery!!

The museum was filled with interesting information and porcelain pieces. The staffs were very helpful and informative. Can touch some of the display pieces unlike most museums.

It's my fault, I went somewhere that isn't of my interest haha. But I went at right time because the ticket consisted of free entry for another exhibition plus a free drink which was delicious.

A small museum with 2 floors. You can learn some history of Penang, but overall the CP value is not high (although a bottle of drink is given for free.)

A nice place to visit and learn something new about Penang. The dude who showed us around is indeed very knowledgable and passionate about this!
