Adventure Zone is a 10,000-square-foot facility comprising of a comprehensive indoor playground with three categories of drop slides and multiple sections of modular play equipment. The main highlight will be the drop slides, which have proven to be extremely safe and offer high level of enjoyment for both children and adults.
Stayed at Rasa Sayang hotel. Crew at kids club was attentive and caring. Daughter enjoyed pool activities and get to select their own meal at Sigi restaurant. A shout out to crew at Adventure zone, he was very patient and encouraged my daughter to try the red slide with steep slope. Overall, facilities are okay but attentive staff makes up for it.

A beautiful house filled with antiques -- it is well worth waiting to join a guided tour in order to get the most out of your visit, as many of the objects in the main house have short (rather than detailed) labels for visitors to read. Our guide, Stanley, was friendly and knowledgeable, giving us a great insight into the history of the family who had built and lived in the house, as well as taking us through the extensive collections on display. Stanley was very happy to answer questions from our little group and made our visit a fascinating, very memorable one!

The first time I went to this aquarium must have been nearly 40 years ago. After that, the 2nd time I went was 10 years ago. My review is for the most recent visit which was just a few days ago. I was pleased with the recent visit because they have expanded this aquarium to have more fish tanks which are designed well (except for the fact that some tanks are too high for toddlers to see). The ticket prices are really cheap and you can easily spend a happy hour with your family. While you won't get the expensive crowd-pleasers like seals, dolphins and sharks, there's enough attractive fish and turtles and the whole area is pleasing enough. Recommended if you are in the area.

Stumbled this museum by chance and was awed by the collection. The Batik paintings are personal collections by the owner over the years. Batik as most know are decorations on cloth to be used as clothing. This museum however showcase Batik as a medium for paintings. A cool place to take a break, rest and cool down and feast your eyes with the intricacies of the Batik paintings when exploring the streets of Georgetown.

it's a very nice place here. You are going to love it if you are interested in photography or films. The manager there is very knowledgeable but she speaks a little bit faster. Price is rm10 for students price and we spent about 1 hour therem definitely worth your time and place. Just an advice herr, strictly no recording. We snapped an Instagram boomerang and the manager is kinda paranoid but i understand. Photos are allowed there but they have 0 tolerance for video recording

Visited Colonial Penang Museum on 18.8.19, we were met by the friendly guide who could tell us the history about every single piece of the exhibit. We posted numerous questions and he share all his story so happily with such vigour and passion. Fans, light bulbs, radios that still works after more than 90 years! Beautiful stain glass, wonderfully preserved antiques, lovely garden, gracious and funny guide and host - this all made up for an unforgetable time.

One of the best museum in Penang where one can learn and understand all about the food culture and history of Malaysia. You will find larger than life food form of this multiracial country as well as interesting food facts and the history of the food here. I believe this is an one of its kind museum in the region. Totally worth the RM25 entrance fee.
