Undoubtedly, Malaysia is rich in various types of local food and we should be grateful for the diversity of cultures and races in our country. Dedicated to food lovers, Penang Wonderfood Museum has a kitsch, kooky and in-depth look at the city’s unique food culture with larger-than-life displays of Malaysian dishes. Set within a 1940s colonial building in Georgetown, the museum is divided into three galleries called Info Zone, Wow Zone, and Educational Zone. All of the hyper-realistic models are handcrafted by the museum’s owner, Sean Lao who utilizes food replication techniques from Japan. With an attractive color scheme, photo-friendly exhibits, it’s no wonder the museum always gets a lot of visits. Both from within and outside the country.

2) Penang Ghost Museum, Pulau Pinang

If you are a fan of ghost stories, you can try visiting the Penang Ghost Museum in George Town to see various exhibitions of ghost statues from local legends such as pocong, oil people, and vampires. To be sure, a visit here is definitely not for the faint of heart. This unique museum not only showcases the statue of the legendary Malay ghost, even a replica of the statue of a ghost in a different zone. Among them are the legendary Chinese ghost zone to see Jiang Shi, the Egyptian zone to see mummies, the Japanese zone for popular ghosts such as The Ring, Ju-On, and Rokurokubi (long neck ghosts), Zombie zone, Dracula zone, as well as special zones for Halloween.
