Magic Art 3D Museum Melaka
Have fun messing around with optical illusion art that makes for great picture backdrops. Showcases are divided by themes – such as ‘Angkor Wat’ and ‘the Arctic’ – and visitors can perform great feats such as ‘battle giant marine monsters’ and ‘leap over deep crevices.’

A fun mixture of the Upside Down House and the Magic Art 3D Museum, Photographfie (a combination of ‘photograph’ and ‘selfie’), this ‘3D Illusion Gallery’ lets visitors ‘lose their heads’, be ‘stabbed’ by metal rods, climb living room walls and ‘shrink’ their partner.
