Sultan Abu Bakar Museum

  Some shots of the beautifully landscaped Sultan Abu Bakar Museum
or fondly called Pekan Museum in the royal town of Pekan
which is yet to reopen as it is still under renovation
since October 2008!
I heard they haven't finish the interior yet
but i bet it will be nicely done to match the exterior.

An old police APC and a ex-navy Wasp helicopter
are some of the exhibit outside.



My sons posing with the new addition,
horses sculptured from wooden logs.
Pls don't try to climb on it as it's quite fragile.

You've got some lovely photos there Thomas! When I used to bus to Singapore I always passed by this museum in Pekan.

Great place, so clean and well maintained. Should go more of seeing my own country in the future rather than traveling overseas.

Nava,
That's why i like local travel
but i will be going to check on the Plain of the Jars
in Laos at the end of this mth.

Beb,
It's a D90 with UV filter but using light HDR technique
where i take 3 shots of different exposure
and merge them with photoshop cs5
and i edit also with Picasa 3.
