It surprises even the versed: the Islamic Arts Museum Malaysia — the region's largest holdings (12 galleries): rare Qurans and miniatures, the great mosques scale-modeled, beneath Uzbek-crafted ornamented domes that alone seize sight. The Quran and calligraphy hall crowns the collection with the Haramain models drawing the longest stands; its shop ranks among Asia's finest for craft and books — an independent budget deserved; the Lebanese-Malay restaurant is the hidden quality surprise and the visit's best lunch.
