The 8 Best History Museums in Kedah, Malaysia
Kedah (Malay pronunciation: [kəˈdɑh]; Jawi: قدح), also known by its honorific Darul Aman or "Abode of Peace", is a state of Malaysia, located in the northwestern part of Peninsular Malaysia. The state covers a total area of over 9,000 km², and it consists of the mainland and Langkawi. The mainland has a relatively flat terrain, which is used to grow rice. Langkawi is an archipelago of islands, most of which are uninhabited. Kedah was called Kadaram (Tamil: கடாரம்; kadāram) by ancient and medieval Tamil people and Syburi (Thai: ไทรบุรี; RTGS: Sai Buri) by the Siamese when it was under their influence.

This 'park' has collected the foundations of several ancient Hindu/Buddhist temples in this area and brought them together in this archaeological park. It is well-maintained, safe, and a fascinating place to visit with lots of open space for children to run around in if travelling 'en famille'. There is a small museum on the site that displays a number of the statues and related artefacts also found in this important archaeological zone that was most likely a thriving trading community settled by Indians from South Asia.
