VISIT THE NATIONAL MUSEUM

Located in Sultan Park, which was once a part of the site of the 17th century Maldavian Royal Palace compound, this three-storey museum was established in the early 1950s with the purpose of preserving the culture and history of the country. This newer version of the National Museum is a conversion of the old palace building; it was built and financed by the Chinese government as a gift to the country. The museum is home to an extensive collection of historical artefacts that date all the way back to the Buddhist era and the rule of Islamic monarchs. The museum complex is surrounded by a beautiful garden park where you can find many locals hanging out and taking a break from the hustle and bustle of city life.
