In 1997 Mong La was declared 'drug-free' by the Wa Authorities, and this temple-like museum was their effort to promote this. In addition to photos, maps and paraphernalia, inside the dusty and neglected building you'll find creepy life-sized dioramas: one shows long-haired, leather-coat-wearing Myanmar youth abusing drugs before eventually, post-rehab, sporting a new haircut and a pressed longyi, 'come to the normal stream of life'.
