Located in Kota Tampan, this modern facility offers visitors an immersive introduction to the Lenggong Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its rich tapestry of human history spanning nearly two million years.
The gallery serves as a comprehensive resource center, providing detailed insights into the valley's significant archaeological sites, including Bukit Bunuh, Bukit Jawa and Gua Harimau. Among its most notable exhibits is the Perak Man, Southeast Asia's most complete prehistoric human skeleton, dating back approximately 11,000 years. This discovery offers invaluable perspectives on early human life and culture in the region.
Beyond its archaeological significance, the Lenggong Geopark Gallery also highlights the area's unique geological features. Visitors can learn about the ancient granite formations resulting from tectonic activities over 240 million years ago, as well as the meteorite impact at Bukit Bunuh, which left behind rare suevite rocks containing evidence of early human tool-making.
For those seeking to delve into the depths of Malaysia's ancient past, the Lenggong Geopark Gallery offers an enlightening experience that bridges the gap between prehistoric times and the present.
