Royal Selangor visit

Two days left of CNY holidays and off we went to Royal Selangor.  We are maximising these holidays!  Also it's terribly hot staying at home.

This is where we went

We got an audio device and headset each.  There were two tour buses when we were there and they had a human guide for each group.  But we liked the personal audio devices as the kids hadn't had these before.

We have nifty equipment

The devices activated at various points to provide information.  Well actually they didn't always activate but you could look at the number and press the relevant section yourself.  (Except I had to keep doing it for SE who was having problem after problem. Like the headset falling off her head, sound too low, section not activated, not being tall enough to see something, asking a dozen questions... *roll eyes*)

I am a nuisance, yes I am

There was quite a bit to see and do, and overall interactive enough for the kids.

Room of chimes

Hall of frames

Hall of hands

The whole tour was free.  It ended at the souvenir shop - of course pewter is expensive and a small cup cost easily RM100.  We didn't buy anything but spent money in the cafe instead.  Now this was nice!
Nice environment

Food was good and reasonably priced.  I'd be happily returning just to eat if it had been nearer for us.

Our lunch 
(excuse the half-eaten items heh)

Of course part of the tour was publicity for the company.  Still, well worth a visit.

  1. Good to bring SE and JE to interesting places like this so that they can not only play but learn.
