Gopeng Museum

Gopeng Museum (Muzium Gopeng), at 28 Jalan Eu Kong, Gopeng, Perak, opened to the public in 2009 and narrates roughly a century of the town's tin-mining heyday from the 1870s, shaped by Mandailing settlers from Sumatra, Chinese miners led by Eu Kong, and European mining companies. Run by the Gopeng Museum Management Society, it displays some 300 antiques and tin-era artefacts; admission is free, and it opens daily except Wednesdays and Thursdays, 9am-5pm with a lunch-hour closure.
