Pekan Museum

The Pekan's Sultan Abu Bakar Museum
is a very attractive one
especially for the kids with outdoor exhibits like
the wooden drift wood horses,water birds,
a Wasp helicopter and an Army's APC.

 

The Sultan's old Cardillac.









Wooden horses and water birds made from pieces of drift wood
and branches imported from Indonesia.






Large Jars of similar size to those from Laos's  Plain of The Jars









These jars looks like an original carved out from sandstone.





The royal emblem of the Cardillac.



An old Land Rover fire engine.















My son Wei Yang trying to lift the old wheeled fire extinguisher.



Old colonial post box.





Wayang Kulit have since became another museum exibit.





Character on display.







Makyong join in too.







A tomb stone showing the probable arrival time of Islam to Pahang.
