Batam 3D Museum. 


New entertainment and attractive place now comes in Batam. The name was Batam 3D Museum. This place was initiated by Mr Timothy Tarman as Chairman in Avava Group. This new attractive place was made as breakthrough to create a new entertainment in Batam.

This museum totally different from those in other country like Bangkok, Singapore and Korea. If in other country they used general theme, in this museum ( Batam 3D Museum ) used Indonesian Culture and Traditional theme. That is why the tagline was named as “ The Gateway to Amazing Indonesia “. Total there are 43 3D artwork or photo spot. You will found the famous 3D artwork from each Indonesia's province.

In each 3D artwork there have a note to tell us how to style in taking picture and from which spot to get the best view. If you taking picture in right spot, than the result will be like real picture. If you don’t know how to make a style you also can ask the staff there. Staff in this museum know well how to style and how to take the picture. In my opinion there are couple good spot to taking pretty nice picture like Welcome To Batam theme, Bali theme and Indonesian Food Fair theme.

Entrance ticket for Foreigners is :
Adult : IDR 150.000
Children : IDR 120.000

Harga tiket masuk untuk orang lokal :
Dewasa : Rp 80.000
Anak-Anak : Rp 50.000

After I visited and saw this museum I think that is the worth price.

Contact me for entrance ticket. There are discount for more than 10 pax.

As the CEO Assistant Ms Claudia Berlina told me, after this 3D Museum they will make Madame Tussauds in Batam. The other planning is Ice Rink, Air Rifle, Saung Angklung and new culinary tour in this area. Sounds good right !!
