This is a very nice place to learn not only Matang’s history but also Japanese Occupation Era. There is a very valuable monument in the garden which had been established by Japanese Army, 戦跡記念碑. It would be really much more appreciated if there is any explanation in English the reason why this monument is set here. Because the monument says it is put at the Thai-Malaysia border in 1942. I would like to know how this monument had been removed from the Thai border to Matang Museum.

Love it. Simple but a very good place to get information about Tengku Ngah Ibrahim and the history from the Japanese and British era other than from the text book. The entrance is free, parking spaces are spacious but must park outside the gate. The museum do organise sleep over at the museum and opens to all school children. A very interesting and infomation pack activity.

A wonderful little museum, with well written item descriptions and information on the local history in both Bahasa Malaysia and English. Learnt about Ngah Ibrahim, the Ghee Hin and the Hai San Chinese gangs in their 3 wars known as the Larut Wars. Worth spending some time here.
