Han Chin Pet Soo

Han Chin Pet Soo is Malaysia's first Hakka tin mining museum and is the number one attraction in Ipoh on TripAdvisor. Located on the edge of Ipoh's Old Town, close to the Kinta River, it is in walking distance of the well-known Panglima Lane. It is managed by Ipoh World Sdn. Bhd.

Originally the two-story home of the Hakka Tin Miners Club founded in 1893, the building was rebuilt in 1929. With three floors and approximately 5000 square feet, this unique museum displays artifacts, collectibles, ephemera and also photographs from the 19th and 20th century. The experience of being in a tin mine is replicated with murals painted by local students of the Perak Institute of Art.
