You can see my
post about it, It seems like they started this tour after my post about it or perhaps it is just a 'coincidence'. I toured the museum for free, it's in the basement of his home in Hateen. Maybe the 3KD is for transportation? If you miss this and want to visit you can contact him via IG @hamedalfuzia
Are you going to visit Bait al-Othman Museum anytime soon? They've expanded with many new sections.
ReplyDeleteOh and here's a new commercial for the museum (in Arabic)

Yay! I will definitely have to visit!! Thanks for the info!
ReplyDeleteCorrection: the new exhibitions haven't opened yet. Initially I thought they did open because the museum's instagram account kept on showing pictures of the new exhibits and the minister even visited those new exhibits.
ReplyDeleteBut apparently the new exhibits still haven't opened to the public: http://www.kuna.net.kw/ArticleDetails.aspx?id=2462255&language=en
