TODO — what museums in Kuala Lumpur are actually worth the time.
5 placesLake Gardens
Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia
The best museum in Kuala Lumpur by a distance, and one of the best of its kind anywhere.
Damansara
National Museum
Muzium Negara — the whole country in four galleries, and the right first stop if you know nothing about Malaysia.
Merdeka Square
National Textile Museum
Songket, batik and the kain in a striped Moorish-revival building of 1905, and it costs almost nothing.
KLCC
Ilham Gallery
Free contemporary Malaysian art in a Foster tower, and the most serious exhibition programme in the country.
KLCC
Petrosains
An oil company's science centre, which sounds like a corporate exercise and is in fact very good with children.
