Museo interactivo de ilusiones ópticas en 3D que transforma pinturas en escenarios vivos donde puedes integrarte en el arte mediante fotos sorprendentes y creativas.
The museum is open daily from 9:30 AM to 8:00 PM, although the ticket office usually closes one hour earlier. It is located in North Pattaya on Pattaya Second Road; you can easily get there by local taxi or baht bus by asking to be dropped off near Tiffany's Show Pattaya.
General admission for foreign adults is around 400 THB and for children around 200 THB, although prices may vary by season. I recommend checking their official Facebook page for updated promotions before you go.
Ideally, set aside between 2 and 3 hours for your visit. Since it is an interactive museum, you will spend most of your time finding the perfect angle and posing for fun photos in the different areas.
It is the first optical illusion art museum, or Trick Art museum, in Thailand and one of the largest in the world. Its importance lies in breaking the usual 'do not touch' rule, allowing you to become an integral part of more than 100 3D artworks.
To get clean photos without strangers in the background, I recommend going early in the morning right when it opens, or on weekdays. Weekends and afternoons are usually more crowded, which makes it harder to achieve the perfect optical effect.
Yes, the facilities are spacious, all on one level, and equipped with ramps, which makes access easier for people with reduced mobility and for strollers. You will be able to enjoy most of the optical illusions without accessibility issues.
You are in a very central area, just a short walk from the famous cabaret performance Tiffany's Show Pattaya. Terminal 21 Pattaya shopping mall is also nearby if you want to eat or go shopping after your visit.
Bring your phone or camera with a full battery and plenty of free storage, because you will take hundreds of photos. Follow the stickers on the floor that mark the exact angle for the 3D effect, and consider downloading their Augmented Reality app to bring the artworks to life.
