National Museum (Muzium Negara)

No crowds. No loudspeakers. Just me… and 200+ instruments silently judging me for not knowing how to read music. 😂
Each room at Muzium Muzik felt like a backstage pass to centuries of culture:
🎺 Horns shaped like garden hoses
🥁 Drums that probably started more ceremonies than alarms ever could
🎻 String instruments that look way too elegant to be touched by someone who failed music class (hi, it’s me)
There’s one gamelan set that made me feel instantly royal.
And a flute carved so beautifully, I forgot it’s basically a stick that sings.
The best part?
It’s peaceful. No concert crowd. Just you, the exhibits, and the hum of history echoing through time.
It felt like music… without the sound. 🎶
And yes, I tried to hum every national song I remembered from school. Badly. No regrets.
