Kedah

THE STATE OF JELAPANG PADI

#JOMJALANMALAYSIA

Cradle of mixed culture

Do you know that Kedah is known as ‘Negeri Padi Jelapang’? We eat rice every day and coming to this museum will give you excellent knowledge about the history of paddy and kedah. The fee for admission is affordable. The souvenir shop sells fun key chains & magnets for the fridge. At a very fair rate, you can also take a picture with a background image of a nice paddy field. A VISIT MUST PLACE if you’re in Kedah. On the way to this museum, enjoy the stunning view of the paddy field and Mount Keriang.

Add Zahir Mosque, among the finest examples of Islamic architecture in Malaysia, and traditional shophouses that have not changed in decades.
