The exhibition space includes different types of bees and bee hives, explains the beneficial role performed by bees and how beekeeping is done and shows the many products which can be made by bees.

Fortunately all the bees seemed to be behind glass windows or within their hives, but from this photo I guess they put on a ‘bee-man’ show from time to time.

Malacca Bee Gallery auditorium

They have an auditorium space where large groups could be seated, ideal for visiting school parties who want to learn about bees.

Most of the space however is given over to their shop selling various types of honey, royal jelly, bee’s wax and so on.
