3D Art Museum Langkawi: Where Art Meets Fun

While travelling with kids we are always in the lookout for kid friendly attractions. When we came across the 3D Art Museum in Oriental Village, Langkawi; it did not sound exciting. An art museum is not appealing enough to my 7 year old, but since the other attractions had specific schedules and we needed an enclosed place to escape the rain we decided to give it a go. And it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. We absolutely loved it! Want to know why? Here are some pictures that sum up 3D Art Museum Langkawi: Where Art Meets Fun.

The 3D Art Museum in Langkawi is the second largest in the world. The area of 2100 sq feet covers more than a hundred 3D interactive paintings. The museum is divided into 9 zones and is meticulously hand-painted by 23 Korean artists with local artists. Apart from the Sky Bridge, this is a great attraction in Oriental Village.

My kid was apprehensive while entering. But once she got an idea of the interactive art, she excitedly went from one exhibit to the other, squealing with delight. The pictures will tell you all about it.

Where to Stay in Langkawi


Langkawi is a popular tourist destination so there is no dearth of staying options. We stayed at the Berjaya Resort which was walking distance from Oriental Village. This provided amazing views of the mountains from their private beach. There are many room types to choose from and we chose the Rainforest Challet. The cottages with beautifully built will all amenities in the midst of green foliage. The two pools and pristine beach kept my water baby happy. The four restaurants gave us ample of food options to choose from.

  1. I remember this place! I had so much fun here with my daughter. We were in here for quite some times. She did get freaked out when there were some images involving heights but she overcame that very quickly. This is defo a great place to bring the family and enjoy the crazy art work.

  2. 3D art museum are always so amazing…i visited one in Bangkok and i got transformed to my childhood days

  3. We love to see art museums. And even more fun if they are 3D like the one in Langkawi. So fun to actually be able to interact with the art pieces. What a great set of family photos you collected. I am not sure which scene I like the best. But ones of your daughter under bubbles is very unusual. I know we would have a ball if we visited.

  4. Wow, that’s such a cool museum! I didn’t even know they existed before now. It must have been really fun to play around with all those different artworks. I think my favourite is the bubble photo. It’s great you got good views from your hotel. And the rainforest Chalet sounds really fun. Did it have a lot of real plants, or fake ones?

    Oh so much fun and I want visit. I have never seen or heard of the 3D Art Museum in Langkawi. I definitely want to visit, I am such a big kid. All of the photos are my favourites.

  6. I cant agree more as I do the same when booking my holiday , looking for activities that would keep my kids busy on holiday as well. This is a great interactive attraction I must admit and keeps the children guessing of the next pose against the backdrop and keeps them gong. I did come across something similar in Hong Kong on Victoria peak. But this is much more than the limited ones there . 3D Art Museums are certainly picking up as I did read about a few more in Europe as well. This one however leads and if I was every to visit Langkawi this would be on my list for sure.

  7. The 3D Art Museum in Langkawi is indeed a lot of fun! Being able to interact with the exhibits is great for little kids. I’d love to be able to take my grandchildren there, but Malaysia is so far from where we live. Well, maybe someday we’ll make it there. Thanks for letting me know about this great attraction.

  8. This 3d art museum looks amazing, and it surely bring back memories as we had one in our city when i was merely a kid. I didn’t visit any museum back when I was in Malaysia but sure will someday soon. Great to know that people are still into 3d.

  9. This museum is awesome, an opposite of the mainstream museum where ‘do not touch’s is a norm. It is interactive and gives more interests to many guests and children. Definitely, we will visit this place.
