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.

 

Landscaped by Shoka Nursery of Kuantan
(Mr Ng,0129817433)


















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.



A small boat by the Pahang River.

    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.

      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.

    Very nice looking place..now I have two museums to visit, one in Seri Menanti N.S and another one is here but I'll wait till this is finished.
