Illusion 3D Art Museum Melaka is located in downtown Melaka. It’s not a common stop on tours and most travelers visit independently, often on a rainy day. Expect to spend an hour or two shooting selfies of you and your crew in situations that might include a waterfall or surfing. For the full experience, experiment in the movie area, too. Don't be afraid to ask staff about the best angles or for help taking a picture.
Illusion 3D Art Museum Melaka is a great option for families and Instagrammers.
Be sure to charge your phone (or camera) and clear storage space before you arrive.
Illusion 3D Art Museum Melaka is not wheelchair accessible.
There are discounts for students, senior citizens, children, and Malaysian nationals.
Illusion 3D Art Museum Melaka is on the second floor of Dataran Pahlawan Megamall, behind A Famosa Fort in the heart of downtown Melaka. It’s about a 0.5-mile (800-meter) walk south of the Stadthuys and a short trishaw ride from the historic center.
Illusion 3D Art Museum Melaka is open from midmorning until late evening seven days a week—as long as Dataran Pahlawan Megamall is open. To make the most of the photo opportunities with minimal competition, visit earlier in the day on a weekday.
Malaysians have fallen hard for trick photography, and most major cities have at least one 3D art museum and often an upside-down attraction too. On Langkawi, check out Art in Paradise; in Kuala Lumpur, enjoy the original Illusion 3D Art Museum; head to George Town for the Penang 3D Trick Art Museum; or experience Funtasy House Trick Art in Ipoh. Melaka itself has two 3D art museums: Illusion 3D Art Museum and Magic Art Museum.
