Hello world, it has been quite some time since my last posting. Here I am back again on a new post! Well, I gotta share this new blog out as it is my favourite place in Penang. I have been revisited here once every year! It is TeddyVille Musuem! Located inside Double Hilton Hotel, it was opened since 2016 at Batu Ferringhi (famous tourist attraction at Penang). I personally enjoy outing day in Batu Ferringhi because it is like a little gem in Penang to hide away from hustle and bustle of city life. You will be able to see beaches, beautiful sunset with lots of water activities, hotels for you to roaming around during evening, and quite a number of romantic restaurants to end your day!
TeddyVille Museum in Penang is mainly a museum fulls of teddy bears, starts your journey with teddy bear history, followed by many sections that introduce Malaysia culture and festivals, famous tourist attractions in Penang, and tasty foods that you have to try when you are in Penang! You get to know more about Penang attractions and Malaysia festivals when you visit here. It is a place that not only kids can enjoy, adults can have lots of fun too! It is Beary Good and Cute till Bear Tahan (i.e. too adorable till can't hold it)!
Let's see, it is mainly segregated into the following sections. Let's have a map directory below to have a quick glance of what we have in TeddyVille Museum Penang. I have breakdown the museum into 4 main areas according to the color as highlighted below so it will be easier to see.
1. Gallery
Welcome to the Gallery of Teddy Bear where it houses the history of how teddy bear is made in this world and where the name Teddy came from? You can see how the "old time" teddy bear looks like in this area.
