Hi there Finally to blog about another museum in Penang? If you're a teddy bear lover, you definitely must-come when you visit Penang.


The teddy bear is named after 26th President of the USA Theodore Roosevelt. In 1902 Roosevelt was out bear-hunting one day in Mississippi, when, having failed to capture a bear, he was invited to shoot an American Black Bear that had been rounded up by his attendants and tied to a tree. Roosevelt declined, claiming it would be unsportsmanlike, and subsequently the story served as the subject for a political cartoon that inspired Morris Michtom, a Russian Jewish immigrant to create a stuffed bear cub that he would call 'Teddy's bear'

Teddy Teddy Teddy. The Teddy Ville Museum, as the name suggests, is Malaysia's first and largest collection of Teddy Bears from various nations and eras as early as the 1900s.

Do you believe that ghost is exist in this world? This question looks lame! I should ask you have you come to GHOST MUSEUM before? Yeah. They are located in the not that busy street, it is an attraction in this street that for those who care as it features the horror and myth of ghost. They are not scaring people but the illustration and those stuff creates an atmosphere of fun. This will be a good spot of fun for older kids.



There are some pretty macabre displays but if you like to take some 'cute' selfies, the Ghost Museum offers some unusual and hair-raising backdrops for a spot of digital buffonerty.



The atmosphere quite real and the sound effect is (Y). Staff is friendly and nice. They also very willing to help us take photo and told us how to take funny picture. The tour was over in about 45mins and the tour guide is amazing.
