it's worth a visit. You will get the picture of war time during WW2 . More real understanding of history with evidence in place. Unlike our biased history books in the school nowadays. Every Malaysian should visit this place.

Worth a visit. Full of history and gives one a true sense of what War truly is. Be prepared to spend 2 hrs at least. The walk is cool and shaded with the sound of birds singing in trees.

This place the answer to Cu Chi Tunnel in Vietnam in case you been there. Just another probably forgotten place from our itinerary of Penang trip. But believe me, this place is worth a visit even you need to pay entrance fee. Built from the real British fort at higher ground since 1930s, this place exhibit war remnant during that timing. Photos from Google Map may not appealing to you but the experience of real visit will be really worth it if you appreciate history.

The museum was the real British fortress during WW2. The entrance fee is RM22 for adult and RM12 for children age 5 above. The trail starts with exhibition of the weapons and clothes used during the war. There are many tunnels and bunkers you can experience along the way. The place is a series of barracks on the hillside. Not advisable to bring strollers or carry bags as you are going to go through many tunnels and stairs. The place can be very hot so bring your own drinks, hats and electric fan. Very informative place but need more maintenance.

Great, if u don't mind crawling in tight spaces, climbing up steps and strolling in dark tunnels. Not for the faint hearted, and most definitely not for those who suffer from claustrophobia. A very great place to learn about the history of Japanese occupation in Malaya. Price is RM22 for adults, RM12 kids.

This place is really huge. So many artifacts, buildings dated from World War 2 to be seen. At some point, this place can be spooky too. You guys should try the underground tunnel. It's really fun. Ticket is RM 22 per entry (adult).

Great place to go back in time and relive the the footprints of war. The museum is very well kept and preserved. The entire fortress is massive so kids need to be monitored closely. Do wear comfortable shoes to explore as there are actual buildings, escape routes and tunnels for you to crawl and climb on. Certain parts of the museum can be quite spooky but if you are up for a self challenge, they do have a night tour.
