TIN MUSEUM

MALAYSIA

 

 

 

The Tin Museum in Selangor, built in 1856, was originally known as the Gedung Raja Abdullah. Exhibits in this tourist attraction trace the history of Selangor's tin mining industry and the role tin mining had in the development and success of the state. It is believed that immigrants from the Chinese mainland come here during the boom in the tin trade in the 19th century.
