History and Labour of Love

Phone: +60 7 223 4935

A labor of love by a descendant of the Bugis royalty, this private museum showcases the history and culture of the Bugis people. At the entrance, you will be greeted by an array of musical instruments, grinding stones, earthen and metal pots and pans. The rustic kampong-style house displays more relics of the past, including cannons, swords and impressive trays of coins. There are also replicated photographs of Boyanese people from the islands between Java and Sumatra.
