Upside Down Museum, Penang, Malaysia

Wonderful visit to this hidden gem

Didn't plan to visit, but boy are we happy we did. Entry price was reasonable, and the setup of the museum is very well organised. The highlight though is the staff. They clearly realise that we all now live in a social media culture, so every room had a few staff that rapidly arranged you into the correct positions in order to take the best possible photo's. They then took the photos using your own smartphones. This made maximising the visit so simple as every single picture from each room were IG ready.

    Nice Place, very interesting
    The place is small but nice. I just think that they need a better location, somewhere more accessible. Tip to have good photos; ask assistance. They would tell you how to properly pose per spot. 450 pesos entrance fee is not bad considering that there is no time limit.

    Cool Museum
    The museum has quite a few rooms even though it feels a bit small. The staff is nice and helpful and you'll end up with tons of amazing pictures. The only thing I didn't like too much is that given there were quite a few people, you were lead through quite quickly without much time to think about other pictures or look at he make-ups of the rooms. I also felt it wasn't super cheap but I would surely recommend going!
