Museum Gallery and Heritage

In this week students and lecturer took a trip to two museums , The National Museum in Kuala Lumpur and The International Islamic Museum in the same location. At these two museums we were able to see and analyse two different displays of history.

The National Museum.

Over one would notice that the artifacts here display the history and life style or culture of Malaysians. Also it depicts how they evolved from one state to a complete state of civilization.
Surprisingly however I noticed how some of their culture as in musical instruments, games and craftsmanship have resemblance to my culture.

The International Islamic Museum.

Now in this museum even from the magnificent architectural design can easily tell what to expect. This museum does not only exhibit Islamic history in Malaysia but all over the world. The artifacts here range from architectural models of some great mosques to weapons, and other crafts. The artifacts here are very unique and very different as compared to those in the National Museum.

Reflection

In my reflection I would have to admit that this was a very educative process for me as well a chance to dig into the culture a heritage of the people of Malaysia and a platform for making necessary comparisons with my own culture.
I also was able to find more about Islam and that was very enlightening since I was able to see ancient scrolls, beautiful architecture and good craftsmanship.
