Optional travelers destination

This museum is specifically build for preserving Sumenep royal family legacy. It offers variety of relics, weapons and chariot of the royal family. Although itsn't as fancy as other museum, you will learn local folklore and other Sumenep kingdom history.

Guided tour with lots of local information and excellent English spoken,

I was shown around the museum and palace by a lovely young lady who spoke excellent English. Museum has much on interest; a carriage gifted by King George of England, a huge Koran plus photos of the kings of Sumenep.

Mix of Old & New

The guided tour was very worthwhile taking in as it did the royal horse carriage museum, the kraton and the taman sari. It was an ideal starting point for a later trip to the royal cemetery at AstaTinggi. The bupati's office is behind the kraton...More
