About this activity

Step into an interactive 3D art experience where optical illusions and immersive installations transform you into living artwork. Phuket's Trickeye Museum uses trompe-l'oeil techniques across 100+ paintings and sculptures to create surreal, gravity-defying scenarios perfect for playful photography.

Through both its permanent collection and its temporary exhibitions, Trickeye 3D Museum gives visitors the opportunity to fully interact and really feel part of modern installation art. 

Phuket Trickeye Museum has a gallery with over a hundred painted and sculpted creations. To stimulate creativity and imagination, the museum uses the trompe-l’oeil ("deceive the eye") technique taking its visitors to weird and wonderful, funny and exciting, unreal situations.

Take pictures as you cross a shaky bridge over a waterfall, escape the sharp teeth of a shark, slide down a snowy slope and much more! 

The Museum is located on the corner of Montri and Phang Nga roads, in which the large two-storey building houses loads of fun for the whole family and some truly unique photo opportunities.

Insider tips

  • Arrive early (late morning) to avoid tour groups and capture cleaner shots without crowds in the background
  • Wear comfortable shoes and clothes that allow easy movement for posing and climbing within installations
  • Bring a smartphone tripod or selfie stick—staff can help position shots but having your own gives more creative control
  • The second floor tends to be quieter; explore there first if you prefer fewer people in photos

Good to know

  • Duration is typically 2 hours; arrive with time to explore at leisure and experiment with different poses
  • Two-storey building with stairs between levels; not ideal for wheelchair users or those with limited mobility
  • Located at the corner of Montri and Phang Nga roads in central Phuket; easily accessible by tuk-tuk or taxi
  • Most installations encourage physical interaction—climbing, lying down, jumping—so dress casually
