Tricks of mine didn't run high, wild or climb the coconut even before I stepped into Penang 3D Trick Art Museum. No. I am not a virgin to 3D Museum. Korea 3D Museum, Langkawi 3D Museum (Part 1 & Part 2) and Jogyakarta 3D Museum at the back and in front of my travelling legs and hands already. Yet, I made it a point in visiting Penang 3D Trick Art Museum. I was already within the same vicinity and if I didn't pop by, don't you think I would have been a loser to Penang sightseeing hunting? Will Penang 3D Museum take a page on my travelling diary? Langkawi 3D Museum is still the untouchable show stealer, basically any 3D Museum is for social media pictures speaks louder than words. Fun posey-mosey endless picturing. Your kids I believe will love it, god, even adults these days are crazily trending picturing madness. As in Wonderfood Museum, solo travellers or married solo travellers like myself, either you show off your selfing skills or the staff won't ditch you aside for clicking.

Don’t bother going. I was underwhelmed with my visit to the 3D museum in Penang. It is simply a bunch of not too great 2D paintings with shadows that are supposed to make your photos 3D (not true). It costs RM25 per person. There is a person who would help you take a few photos on your phone in the first area of this museum. (First two exhibits). They help you because they want to take a few photos so they can sell you copies at the end, which is fine but honestly, their photography skills is questionable. The room that I really wanted to take photos has a Van Gogh replica (starry night) in it and makes a tall person shorter than a short person. But that room was closed. I would not want to visit the 2nd time. Really not worth the money. I would highly recommend Upside Down Museum instead. As for Covid precautions, they asked us to show our MySerjahtera to make sure we are ‘Low Risk’ before we could buy tickets (that’s good) but there were a lot of people inside. It was a weekday when we visited, I would dread it if it was a weekend.

This Museum is a little walk away from the Peranakan Mansion and a bit pricier than the other Museums. At RM28, you better be ready to take at least 28 photos. The good news is though, there are ample photo taking spots (little illusions, or just pretending to be in a scene with the art) so if you’re a little more creative, this place is a good stop. My friend and I spent about an hour here, and went home with MANY photos. Being able to laugh and pose and brainstorm was delightful, and watching other ppl for ideas was also nice. There are also some cooler props for photos, which we took full advantage of. If you’re out of ideas, there are always photos outside each set to spark some. I can see how this museum might not be everyone’s cup of tea though, considering how self guided it is (much like the other museums in Penang) and the emphasis on static sets.

The 3D art was AWESOME! This was my first encounter to 3d art, and I enjoyed it immensely. The entrance fee was 25 rm (app. 6 USD) as i was a foreigner, the local people has a discounted price. We enter through the ground floor, pass through a series of halls, go to the 1st floor and exit from there. Some halls contain a number of such arts, while some rooms only have a single one (the whole room is designed for 3d). You can go solo (like me), there are employees who will take your photos for you (thanks a lot everyone!). But it would be awesome if you can go with friends, you can try different combinations with your friends! You have to stand at a point marked on the ground if you want to take the photo to get the 3d effect. There are also framed images next to each exhibit which shows the best way to pose in each picture! 😀 DONT MISS THIS!

The place is situated in a shoplot near the main tourist attractions in Penang. Parking is a bit harder especially during peak hours. They observe certain SOP during COVID 19 pandemic. Ticket for Malaysian adults is RM25 and for kids RM15. The place has 2 levels. Make sure your handphone/camera is fully charged because for sure you'll be taking a lot of photos. The place is fully air-conditioned. Among the amenities are clean toilets and free drink thru water dispenser. You have to remove your shoes for upstairs tour. What is a bit inconvenience is once you finish taking photos and before exit, you have to go back to the shoe rack to take your shoes back. At the end of the tour there's a small shop selling souvenirs. Bonus point: There's a popular Nasi Kandar restaurant in front of this place called Nasi Kandar Merlin. Do try it out!

Nice attempt but a disappointment compared to upside down museum. We just try to make the best of it as seen to still get in some decent pictures. Most of the backdrops are too close to each other and very difficult to squeeze nice shots in without capturing a different backdrop. Maybe they try to put too many settings in limited space. I do understand that they need to preserve the settings by not allowing shoes. But maybe that should be managed before entry and not after. Seems there aren’t enough attendants to help with guiding and taking pictures. Also most of the backdrops are not very “trick art” but more 3D. If you really have time to kill, visit this. But if you only have time for one, IMO to check out the upside down museum instead. Instagram @iambruisedlee
