About
Galeria Perdana, also known as the Perdana Gallery, is a museum on Langkawi, the island group in the Malaysian state of Kedah. It sits within the Kilim Karst Geoforest Park, so a visit can be paired with the wider landscape of limestone hills and mangrove waterways that the park is known for.
What you will see
The museum displays gifts that former Malaysian Prime Minister Dr. Mahathir Mohamad received from world leaders during his time in office. Its collection includes more than 2,500 items, among them artifacts, decorative pieces and memorabilia from international dignitaries. For many visitors, the appeal lies in seeing the range of objects and the stories they represent, from everyday craft to formal diplomatic presents.

Because it is a museum set within a park, it suits a slower half-day in the company of the island's natural scenery. Check directly with the venue before you travel for current opening arrangements, as these are not covered here.
