Galeria Perdana
This unique gallery was built to display and share with everyone an impressive collection of over 2,500 state gifts and awards presented to the Prime Minister of Malaysia, Dato' Seri Dr. Mahathir Mohamad and his wife during his tenure.

An example of a piece to note is the two portraits of the Prime minister and

his wife displayed on the right side upon entering the gallery.
They look like an ordinary painting but upon closer inspection, you'll find

that it's actually embroidery done using horse and goat hair.

One section is devoted to gifts made of wood, leather, crystal and lacquer,

as well as musical instruments and stone objects.  Another section comprises textiles, games, weaponry, ceramics, plaques and Islamic art.

There are also gifts of silver, copper, brass and pewter. There is even an

array of automobiles. Some of the exhibits are special awards

received by the Prime Minister and his wife.

Take time to wander around the Galeria and read the footnotes

accompanying each exhibit. The extensive grounds around the building

are also very interesting as they are specially landscaped and planted

with local trees, shrubs and herbs.
