Lonely Planet review for Siwa Lima Museum

The Siwa Lima Museum displays Maluku's foremost collection of regional and colonial artefacts. It comprises two main buildings separated by 500m of road snaking beautifully up through steep, lovingly tended gardens. Air Salobar bemos terminate near the gardens' ornate gateway but as entry is from the upper section, consider using an ojek Rp10,000 to save a sweaty climb.

The upper rear terrace offers some of Ambon's most inspiring bay views and a stairway continuing from the top car park leads to a prettily flower-decked little Hindu Temple.
