    Very nice to have this sort of museum here. A lot of history. Building looks to have been completely renovated not so long ago and was super clean an tidy. Aircon very good. The 20 min 4d show was really informative and give the history of Clark.. once seeing the movie you will understand why there is the natives... The old abandoned buildings and the all new casinos all in the same area !! Well worth a visit.

    Educational and inspiring experience for both Filipino and foreign tourists! 👍🏻 Definitely a must-visit when in Clark ✈️ The museum is well-maintained and well-ventilated. Restrooms are clean. Hoping for more interactive pieces for the museum! Tip for CDA: More promotions and advertising!

    A must visit place in Clark. The museum is small but well-curated, with some interactive activities. It features the history of the place showcasing a variety of items including artifacts, dioramas, old photographs, products such as pottery, and attractions (including a photo exhibit of birds found in Pampanga). The 4D theater shows an engaging and good account of the history of the place capturing the smell and feel of Mt Pinatubo's eruption.

    Educational and very well curated. It was part of the rolling tour and I’ve learned so many things about Clark @ its neighbors… culture, stories & history. All good stuff!

    Good place. I recommend seeing the 4D show first to set the mood. The show is a 20 minute documentary. Would be more fun to go through the museum afterwards. There's a 100 peso fee per head for the museum and another 100 peso fee for the theater.

    A cute little museum that has quite a bit of information on the rich history of Clark and the province of Pampanga. The 4D theatre was also worth watching, if you have an interest in Philippine history. A side story that further makes me appreciate the museum: there were young highschoolers who wanted to explore the museum but didn't realize it was paid, but the museum clerk allowed them to see it for free which I'm a fan of, as encouraging and proliferating education and curiosoty is always a net positive for our society in my book. I would give it 5 stars, but some of the info and presentation is nearly a decade out of date, as Clark has greatly progressed and expanded since they created those presentation points.

    Great way to showcase the local culture. The place was well kept and the staff were friendly. Seniors enter free. Just wish more people can visit. Entrance fee is P100 per head as of Sep. 2023.

    This is a great place to share some family time or even explore history yourself. It has a simple presentation of Filipino culture and history. From the type of rocks found to military liberation era, including tradition, volcanic activity and highlighted art. It is not a HUGE museum but the 2 floors of exhibits make for a nice afternoon.

    A great museum to learn about clark city from its humble beginnings, to being a base and now a global city. You will learn culture, agriculture, and economics too. 100 pesos per person.

    A well-maintained museum. Ticket prices are 100 for the museum and 100 for the 4D theater. (per pax) A good and fun experience to learn more about history and artifcats. For the 4F Theater, they strictly follow a timeframe which is posted on the main entrance and reception.

    I did not really get the chance to enter the museum because it was closed when I arrived there, but I would say that the outside parts of the place have some historical artifacts, mainly weaponry used in World War II.

    The museum was a good walk down memory lane of how Clark was built. The 4D theater was much appreciated by a history nerd like myself but not much by the toddlers who expected more... Fighting. Lol. A great family experience. Try it.

  • 5/5 Joy J. 4 years ago on Google
    We paid 100 for the entrance and another 100 for a 20 minute 4D Theater experience showing a brief history of Clark & the eruption of Mt. Pinatubo. The 4D effects gave us goosebumps and amusement. With that said, we enjoyed roaming around the museum for the next 15minutes. Great showcase & approach to vositors like us. Trully amazing. Kudos to everyone!

    Entrance fee is quite expensive. Not advisable for kids 7 y/o and below. You'll do most of the reading because there will be no one to assist you as you walk around the museum. On the 2nd floor you'll find most of the artifacts when the US airbase was still here in the Philippines. Kids and kids at heart would definitely enjoy the 4d experience but some of the seats are not maintained hence, my sisters were not able to experience the effects.

    The museum was clean. There are lots of displays. But it would have been better if they have a guide to accompany visitors while having a tour inside. The 4D Theater was fun. It was my first time to have such kind of experience.

    It is a nicely arranged museum, representing not only the history and traditions of Clark area, but Pampanga and neighboring cities. It covers topics of history, traditions, wildlife, geography, geology, crafts, festivals etc. Good place to go if one wants to know more about Clark area and the freeport economic zone. It takes about 1 to 1.5h to go around the four exhibition halls. There is a 4D theater that we haven’t visited. Tickets are applied - 100PPHP/person and it is free for kids and senior citizens. (as of Feb, 2024).

  • 5/5 Mr Q. 4 months ago on Google • 54 reviews
    We were bored and looking for local attractions and places to go in Angeles and discovered this little gem. Easy to access free parking and friendly staff. It's full of information about the history of the local area including WW2 and artifacts from various eras The surround sound 4D cinema is well worth a visit next door it's an immersive audio visual sensory film full of of info to back up the museum

  • 3/5 Christina L. 1 year ago on Google • 41 reviews
    No need to buy ticket in advance. Ticket cost P100.00 per person. Museum operates until 4pm and 3D theater viewing last show is until 3:30pm Appreciate that the LGU did something like this. Though it needs improvements and upgrades, it is still.very imformative. Pls respect the items on display by not touching them.

    Good place to learn about Clark, it's history and the Capampangan Culture. However some interactive displays are not kept well and are not functioning properly. Some displays also lacks information cards.

  • 2/5 Daniel 4 months ago on Google • 5 reviews
    Ok so hear me out, if you really like museums then this is for you, if not then I don't recommend you to visit. Although for me the main attraction was the 4d cinema, the rest of it is kinda basic almost boring unfortunately. The way they displayed everything was kinda messy and off. Also about the cinema, make sure to choose the seats well, not all of them work.

  • 4/5 Shun Hsiang C. 4 years ago on Google
    We visit this museum and they play the 4D introduction video regard to city planning of New Clark City. But the seat move always lag 0.3 secind behind video. And the video quality is not high definition. Beside that, the content of video might improve you understanding on how they will going to do in this new capital.

    After we left the Veteran's cemetery, we got a ride to Clark Air Base. The base has been closed since the 90's. Some parts of it are still in use but much of it has fallen into disrepair. We walked the grounds and took some pics but the most interesting part of our visit was the museum. It's a nice place. Half of it is dedicated to art, 1/4 is dedicated to the air base and the last 1/4 focuses on local history, including the Aetas who are described as Negritos considered original inhabitants of the islands, and Amerasians. We were the only two people visiting so we took our time and enjoyed it all.

  • 5/5 Maria Victoria P. 1 year ago on Google
    The museum opens at 9am, Tues-Sun. There are two floors and a 4D theatre. Bird collection, history of Clark and its turnaround from being a US base station to a freeport zone are what are in stored. There is also interesting materials about Mt Pinatubo and Mt Arayat. Don"t miss the 4D theatre. Firsr show is at 9:30am. The museum is closed on Mondays. #recommendedtovisit

  • 5/5 Brad G. 1 year ago on Google
    Great spot to check out! Do yourself a favor when visiting Angeles or any part of the Philippines for that matter and check out the history of the cities, people, and country.

  • 5/5 Christine T. 1 year ago on Google
    Kids are free. Adults are 100php each for the museum and 4d theatre. The kids enjoyed it.

  • 2/5 K. P. 1 year ago on Google
    It was enjoyable but small and lacking info. The 4D theatre is worth the P100 price but don't expect much. The moving chairs served no real purpose. The 4D glasses didn't really work good. That said, it's worth experiencing for the Clark Air Base history...

  • 4/5 Duane Kendall P. 1 year ago on Google
    FOR ALL AGES. This should be on your list if you’re visiting Clark. Get to know the place more by looking at the history of Angeles and Pampanga as a whole through this museum and their 4D Theatre. And before I forget, admission is affordable.

  • 5/5 Louie T. 1 year ago on Google
    Entrance fee of 100 pesos . Museum has 1st and 2nd floor. At the side is the 4d theater with 100 pesos entrance fee. The movie is about the history of Clark and Mt. Pinatubo.

  • 2/5 Susan W. 1 year ago on Google
    The collection is diverse (or it can be said that the theme of the collection is a bit disorganized...). Most of the topics in this museum records the history between Philippines aborigines and Americans, and volcanic eruptions. #2023.03

  • 3/5 Martin D. 4 years ago on Google
    Some interesting exhibits on the history of Clark Freeport, and various items of arts and crafts, but the museum needs a serious curator to update the exhibits and make it more accessible.

  • 4/5 The A. 3 years ago on Google
    Their museum is a good place for kids and adults. Their 4D theater is not worth it.

  • 5/5 Aoi M. 6 years ago on Google
    If you want to get a glimpse of Clark, Pampanga's history, go straight to the museum. There are many exhibits to see and most of them are interactive (seen below with my friend's granddaughter in the boat). The 4D Museum is exciting and very informative. The place is air-conditioned and airy. The second floor has many exhibit showcases. I can't really provide pictures inside as it will ruin the surprise but it is one of the best museums I've gone to.

  • 5/5 Uning0000 4 years ago on Google
    the entrance fee was super worth it..its like time travelling 🤗

  • 4/5 Tom L. 5 years ago on Google
    Modest sized museum but enough to enjoy yourselves for a couple hours and learn a few things about Clark. Entrance fee is nominal and staff are friendly. Pretty quite inside so you can take your time reading about the transformation of the US military base to what is now a well planned developing tourist and economic zone.

    This is a fun place for you when you stay in angelese city since there has few fun you can do here. The 4D theater is talk about the history of this city,in 1991, the Pinatubo volcano was exprotion and there almost became a desolation. And then, the government is rebuild this place become a global city in Asia, and it's progressing now.

  • 4/5 Eric Christopher T. 1 year ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Visited the museum and the 4D theater about a month ago. The staff and guards were very friendly. The museum was very informative about the history of Pampanga/Clark. There’s really a lot to learn. Come in early though if you would really like to read all the infographics they have, as we came in by afternoon, and I didn’t have enough time to read all of them. As for the 4D theater, it was enjoyable naman, though there were times when the configuration of the seat, as well as other special effects, didn’t fit the narration and what was shown on screen. I couldn’t help but laugh when my seat vibrated down there when they were talking about the natives dying. Overall, it’s worth a visit and it was a very enriching experience for me.
