It's a high technology museum with so many documentations and the conference room with many mannequins, good to see if you're with many people, maybe a bit creepy if you're only with few people. The building itself is a quite nice architecture.

It was an excellent experience I and my kids then to visit this museum. This museum is well maintained and very clean. Truly worth visiting.

I am a fan of history. But I never set my expectations high for museums in Indonesia. Even with that standards, the Asian-African Conference Museum is one I consider very poorly displayed and very bland. Aside from several exhibitions of statues and placards with historical explanations, the museum offers nothing much. The main hall does not have a sense of... More

Overall this would bore children to death. It is about a most interesting conference that was held several decades ago. The hall is still occasionally used. I was able to take many photographs in their although others said it was not allowed. I saw no signs to the contrary. The building is interesting architecturally. To me it is an interesting... More

This building actually is Asia Africa Confrence but already convert as a museum. The light is great, the house keeping is good but one aspect that let me down...you can not take a photograph in museum. I don't know what is their reason but it will be more wonderful if we can take a photo anywhere. Am I right?

It's around jalan Braga. When I went there it's closed. So, I only saw it from outside. So far, I am happy can see a building that is witness of the world history, between Asia and Africa

Let's be honest, considering the quality of some of the SEA museums I've seen, I didn't have very high expectations for this - oh how wrong I was! The museum exceeded my expectations. Clean, great pictures and artifacts, great info explained well in Indonesian and English. A good video explaining the event. A chance to see the actual conference room.... More

I like the display in the museum, learning and feeling the unity of the many participant countries in the conference. I like the interior which is well-preserved and like the opportunity to check out the basement of the building.

One of the earliest international conference that place Bandung on the world map. With no entrance fee, my family and I were guided through the floor by a museum staff member. He diligently explained the history of The Asia Africa conference and its importance towards the third world countries back then. Fascinating and very educational.
