stablished in 1980 by Tareq S. Rajab and Jehan S. Rajab, the Tareq Rajab Museum is the oldest Islamic Art museum in the Gulf and houses a collection of over 30,000 items collected over the last 60 years, of which approximately 10,000 are on permanent display. While the museum is often referred to as a single entity, its collections are displayed across two nearby locations. The "Tareq Rajab Museum", is the original museum founded in 1980 and is home to the collections of Islamic manuscripts, ceramics, glass, metalwork including the Bronze Door of Sultan Barquq, Islamic arms and armour, a large collection of silver folk jewellery, textiles, embroideries, costumes, musical instruments and orientalist artwork. In contrast, the "Tareq Rajab Museum of Islamic Calligraphy", which was founded in 2007, displays a range of mediums for Arabic script.

Othman house a traditional museum in Kuwait 🇰🇼

In first moment I thought it is small museum which we can take around half hour & finish. But when we were inside it, it was big house, you can smell past around it, its took your mind to 70s & 80s the previous century, each section had story , really we enjoyed, i even finished two hours or more without feeling how was passed very fast, if you visit Kuwait, you must visit this museum, it’s deserving to stop and take a look.
