Why Visit This Place?
Art in Paradise offers a creative and playful break from the usual sightseeing. This indoor museum is filled with hand-painted 3D murals that create mind-bending optical illusions, inviting you to step inside the artwork for unforgettable photos. It’s perfect for families, friends, and anyone looking to laugh, pose, and interact with art in a way you simply cannot do in a traditional gallery.
What to Expect
Expect to spend your visit posing with giant sharks, walking over lava, or “climbing” into famous paintings. The museum has themed zones such as underwater, safari, fantasy, and classic art. Most visitors spend between one and two hours exploring and snapping photos. All exhibits are indoors and air-conditioned, making this a comfortable stop any time of year. Flat shoes are best for walking and posing.
