The day i go to islamic art museum with my friend by train.The exterior of museum looks quite clean ,and the islamic style is very strong. Overall form of Islamic architecture developed an infinite space to exude a relaxing.The museum itself is pretty neat and clean. Every room has an intricate domed ceiling which is very big and had impressed me!




The domed ceiling there is interested me , the designed use the radial pattern to create a shape,decorate with gold floral which add the modern sense.Atmosphere there is good, spacious enough and full of characteristic of islamic pattern.After this trip, I found many interested traditional costume which is beautiful and exquisite.There also a lot of  Malay jewellery there.Some of it is delicate and the texture looksvery nice.I also get some deeper understanding of Malaysia 's
culture and history.And suprisely I found that the person who had printed in our notes!
