This is not a standard tourist attraction. But perhaps that is why it is one of the most popular ones in the city. Royal Selangor is the largest manufacturer of pewter in the world. Consummately, it’s massive visitor’s gallery welcomes about a thousand visitors. It’s a gorgeous place and very well managed.

In the gallery, you’ll find the showcases of manufacture of the material - the science and history and applications. But they’re real pleasure lies In the factory - 250 workers hammering out the metal. If you would like to get more hands-on, the factory will let you try and do a little bit of craftsmanship yourself. It’s not easy. Another fun section is the Chamber of Chimes - compare the sound of pewter to other metals. Also, visit nearby attractions in the city which are covered in Kuala Lumpur itinerary 5 days.
