Easy to miss as it is poorly signposted, it is across a footbridge directly opposite the Meritus Pelangi Beach Resort. We dragged our kids (6 and 9) there on a rainy morning. The grumbling stopped about 5 mins after we arrived and our 9 year old even said it was great. Startlingly given what is there, it is free. We... more

We stayed at the Casa Del Mar across the st and did not go here originally because it was free. However when we did go, we wandered around a mainly empty place until we bumped into Rodsy (sp?) who showed us everything! It was an amazing hands-on tour -- we broke open coconuts, put herbal plants directly onto our skin... more

The Rice Museum, however, provided hard, neat ledges for you to walk around on, to explore the paddy fields up close, but not too personally. They show various stages of growing rice, and the very structure of the building... more

I don't usually write reviews on attractions but this one surprised us because of the dedication, knowledge and passion of a member of staff, Rosti, who deserves a mention. We discovered the rice museum by accident but went in to the air conditioned gallery of exhibits and learnt a great deal. Rosti then took us for a tour of the... more

Not to be confused with the Field of Burnt Rice. This museum is directky opposite the Pelangi/Casa Del Mar Hotels at Pantai Cenang. Admission free (2007) The museum is an airconditioned building with displays of photographs, equipment, educational stuff relating to rice and rice cultivation. At the entrance the receptionist maintains a collection of aromatic herbs and plants which was... more
