History of tin mining during the early days is exhibited here. Very interesting and informative on how tin mining begins. Worthwhile to visit this museum for a small entrance fee. RM5.00 per adult and children up to age 17 is only RM2.00 per child.

A great tour to learn about the tin industry which transformed the economy of Malaya. Being a Perakian, I am always gratitude because of tin mining my grand parents migrated here, earned a living & chased after their dreams. I heard so many stories about the life of tin miners, saw the tin dredging & dulang washing. Kudos to all the generous contributors & dedicated curator to track and capture the footage of the tin mining . 🙏💕🙏

A treasure trove of information on tin mining in Malaysia, specifically in Kinta Valley, a top tin producer in the world at one time. The brainchild of Tan Sri Hew See Tong, a tin miner himself, you can bet that the information offered here is as accurate as can be. Well kept even though the museum first opened its doors back in 2012. Vast exhibition areas indoors (air-conditioned) and outdoors, at least two hours have to be allocated to really go through the exhibits here and read the information boards, which are in three languages (English, Malay and Mandarin). The museum is open daily from 9am until 5pm. The entrance fee (ticket) is RM5 for visitors above 17 years old, RM2 for those 6 to 17 years old and free-of-charge for those below 6 years of age.

Gotta appreciate the effort to curate and preserve a moment in time when tin mining was the mainstay of the local economy. Good exhibits and great deal of info to absorb. Can get a little warm especially the upper floor at the back which displays some historical mining documents. All this for a token sum of RM5/adult and RM2/child. Add RM1 to feed the fishes at the pond.

I LOVE museums! They are so organized and makes decision making and understanding of life meaningful. This one in Kampar is no different. The visit to Tualang Kapal Korek merged with this museum completes the pathway of tin ore history in Malaysia well at least in the Kinta region. Private & government museum management complement each other. Well done 👍

For a free museum, this museum delivers both quality and quantity aspect. They has has many illustrations and mannequins to help in portraying the tin mining history but in the same time, it is compact with details. You can walk around the museum too see the tin miner lifestyle and technology of tin mining. Besides that, the guard of this museum is talkative and friendly towards visitors.

Such a informative place about tin mining. Must visit place in Kampar . The museum was preserved nicely. Got toilets and can feed the fish at the outside . Entrance fee RM 5 person .

It's a private museum. Rm5 per entry for adult. It's good to know the history of tin mining which basically kick started Malaya economy and until now, still holding the record of No. 1 tin mining industry in the whole world. Guided tour is an extra here because the staffs would approach u to give u the tour if they're not busy with other chores. U r lucky if u r approached with 1. My tour guide is Pow, an intern doing his internship with the mine museum. Good effort from him. Oh yeah, u can try mendulang here. It's fun. Definitely a yes go esp for family and for the knowledge.

Nice preserved historic place on tin mining process and procedure. Since there are entrance fee, why not maintain those equipment that give the users a good experience at the outdoor. Need to have a guided tour and more interactive one

Small museum, but very informative on the history of tin mining in the region. Small kids may enjoy the outdoor displays of older mining equipment.

Lots of photos and display. Interesting but confuse about process of mining tin and making tin. Display and photos not in order or explain in sequence. Entrance fee reasonable.

A small museum but the contents give a fairly good reflection of how tin mines in Malaysia were managed and operated from the perspectives of the owners, the workers and the govt, including when Malaysia was ruled by the Nipppn Govt.

A nice small museum with a great history of mining tin in malaysia. If you like history, this is a nice place to visit. Take your time and read the origin of tin mining in malaysia especially in perak.

This is a very interesting museum about the history of tin mining in the Kinta Valley, and Malaysia in greater context. There are various exhibits are actual artifacts as well as models that are created to demonstrate and portrays the tin mining livelihood during its peak period. Entrance fee to the museum is very affordable and visitors can plan to spend a couple of hours here.

Had a lot of fun.

Basically it's a museum for local tin operation. It's a good place to learn more about the older Chinese generation when they first arrive to Malaysia. For rm5, I think it's well worth it. Alot of info about early Kampar settlers.

每天开门。成人票5马币，未成年人票2马币

值得保留的历史文化遗产

It is nice and educational place to visit. However,it need more to improve on how to deliver the information as too extra of mandarin/chinese language been applied. Moreover, need to do spring cleaning as too much dust and fingerprints on the exhibition glass.

Nice place to know history of bijih timah, but statue outside is less maintenance. Inside museum is acceptable

Are you keen on knowing the history when Perak is the tin planet to the world? This is a place you could explore and experience instead of googling around the internet. Walls of documents and miniatures plus the real items from used to be tin mines all over Kampar and Perak. Want to know more? Be there!

Interesting museum which gives a lot of insights not only into the mining process itself but also on the geography and history of Chinese immigration into Malaysia.

Nice memories, but need maintain as many tear down

The place not air conditioned. There are souvenirs but no staff is there to mend it. Informative place.

Very informative museum. Can see the history of the tin mining process as well as other historical events that happened in the past.

A museum to learn the history of how things began. With much manipulation in local school history books, this museum is a good place to start.

太小了没东西

Nothing much to see, just able to know the history how Chinese came peninsula of Malaysia for tin mining business.

RM 5 ticket but the toilet is dirty. Content inside still ok, historical

Good informative place on the history, the process & all you need to know on tin mining

I think more educational topic can be added such as way of life of the people living at that time. But nevertheless it's a good place to go before heading towards Teluk Teluang dredging No 5

Incredible history documented in this small but significant museum. Worth bringing your children to understand the heritage of the tin mining community and part of the country's once biggest export.

Educational but needs improvement. Especially the restrooms.

a lot of info about tin mining..my suggestion,please put a staff as a tour guide or atleast easy to visitors to ask about the tin mining..

I love history

值得一去

Could be better maintained, was charged RM5 for entry but grounds seems dirty and abandoned, inside was OK. Would give 5 stars if better represented

Went for a visit with my wife. Interesting place to learn about mining. But didnt managed to tour all the places since my wife was really scared since there were nobody inside even staff. Only the one at the counter. The rest was just statues

The TVs that look like they were supposed to show short videos were not working, and the air inside the museum was stifling. Sad. I remember this place being much much better when I visited several years ago. Toilet is clean.

(Translated by Google) Can understand local and then mining progress, historical values ​​are high (Original) 可以了解当地与当时的矿业进展，历史价值观高

Very informative but no tour guide. Nice, clean place. Sufficient for self tour. Recommended to feed the fish, fish food is available at the counter for RM1.

During my trip there, its free entrance although we are prepared to pay to enter. The size of the museum is about right and one roughly spend a max of 1 hr here.

Educational. Entrance $5 adult $2 child. 26-28 October promotional free entrance

Great History Museum for Kampar

Great display of engineering marvel back in the old days. From hand dug mines to gravel pumps to excavation by machine, it was a thrill for me as an engineer to see what technology does for mankind. The place is not very well visited. May not be too exciting for children to visit and understand.

Good learning about mining tin's

A small tin mine museum on the outskirt of Kampar town. Showing visitors the equipments used in the open cast tin mine in the early years of Malaya. Info on tin production is also available. There is a small entrance fees. A book shop selling some books and souveniors is located on the same premise.

Free for residence...tin mining history...
