    We visited this pace recently after covid 19. The first-ever wax museum in Kerala, "Sunil's wax Museum" is situated at Trivandrum, near the South Street of Sree Padmanabha Swamy Temple. The Museum houses 31 life-like and life-size wax models. The collection of models range from great rulers, leaders, freedom fighters, soldiers, sportsmen, politicians, film stars, etc. Except for a few The detailing are good for many statues. Its free for small children around age 2, the fees is a bit high and statues are lesser in numbers. Parking is not available, has to be done by paying and parking near the road. Overall a good tourist attraction for new comers.

    Entrance fee is bit costly as compared to all other places. But the work he had done is awesome. Hats off!! If you visit Kuthiramalika before this place, you can save 100rs. They will provide a coupon. Using that we can visit Wax museum for free.

    The museum's affordable entry fee of 100 per person was a great value for the incredible displays they had to offer. I loved that they allowed visitors to take photos and videos – it really made the visit even more memorable. The attention to detail in the wax figures was remarkable, making it feel like I was standing right next to some of my favorite celebrities and historical figures. The museum's ambiance was captivating, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, a must-visit attraction that offers a lot of fun and entertainment for the price!

    It was an amazing experience. The statues look so real. The detailing done on each statues shows the amount of time and perfection that has gone while making each one of them. The entry ticket fee is 100 INR per person. Highly recommend to visit this place. This museum is right next to Shree Padmanabhaswamy Temple's west gate.

    Indian version of Madame Tussauds wax museum. Good and only wax museum at Trivandrum. Don't compare the work with the Madame Tussaurds. The work and effort to set up the exhibition should be appreciated. Entry fee is Rs.100 per person.

  • 4/5 Varun C. 7 months ago on Google β€’ 160 reviews
    Sunil's Wax Museum in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, India is a museum that houses a collection of wax statues of famous people from India and around the world. The museum was founded in 2005 by Sunil Kumar, a sculptor and wax artist. Museum including statues of politicians, actors, musicians, sports personalities, and other notable figures. Some of the famous people whose wax statues are on display at the museum include Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Mother Teresa, Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Sachin Tendulkar, and Cristiano Ronaldo. The wax statues at Sunil's Wax Museum are made using a process called lost-wax casting. This process involves creating a mold of the person's body and then pouring molten wax into the mold. Once the wax has cooled, the mold is broken away and the wax statue is removed. The statue is then painted and finished to look like the real person. Ticket charge is over priced. 100β‚Ή per person. I think it's not enough for the money.

    Absolutely superb experience. Most of them are like real. You can see and take photographs with the wax models. The exact dimensions and shapes of the real ones are used for making models. You can see our great people and actors like real ones.

  • 4/5 Gautam H. 2 months ago on Google β€’ 340 reviews New
    Here the artists have created a wonderful replica of politicians, great men, movie stars, sports persons, poets etc personalities which are made of wax. Really salute to the performers. It appears like a copy of the great personalities. It is a helpful museum for both seniors and juniors. The child should be familiar with the people who are there? The shape or figure of a person can impress a lot or make us feel great admiration. It is a clean and A/C museum.

    My first visit to a wax museum. I was really astonished by the skin details and actual to reality. Completely mind blowing. It's really a gift by God to make such art. Wonderful.

    Cost 100 rs for adult and free for children. It's very near to Padmanabha swamy temple trivandrum. This is my first wax museum visit, so I'm very much impressed. Some statues are thin to real person's appearance but the attempt is too good. Not crowded, can enjoy with kids for 15 to 20 mins

    I had an incredible evening at Sunil’s Wax Museum in East Fort, Thiruvananthapuram! The collection of wax statues featuring prominent personalities like Sree Narayana Guru, Jawaharlal Nehru, Mannathu Padmanabhan, Sai Baba, Karunanidhi, Jayalalitha, Sachin Tendulkar, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Actor Jayan, Mohanlal, Mammootty, Rajinikanth, and more was truly impressive. The attention to detail and lifelike representations created an awesome experience, evoking real-touch feelings. A must-visit for anyone looking to be surrounded by the essence of revered figures in a beautifully crafted setting.

    The museum is good for a one time visit. The entrance fees of rs 100 is a bit costly. There are lots of wax statues of celebrities which include mohanlal, rajni kanth, mamokka, modiji, nehru ji, anna hazera etc. Can cover the place in 10~15 minutes. Pay n park facility available opposite to the museum which is also costly about rs 50.

    We would have heard of or seen wax museums outside India This one is a must visit when in Trivandrum There are about 28 wax models of famous personalities and are very close to real humans. I like the fact that they let people to take pictures with the wax models. β‚Ή100 is entry per person but I feel it is worth encouraging talented people like Mr.Sunil I was told it takes about 6months to carve out a wax model

  • 3/5 Nandhu 1 year ago on Google
    Sunil wax museum is the one and only wax museum in Trivandrum. they have absolutely nice wax statues of around 35 popular peoples . only thing i feel is the setting of the wax museum. very poor. the people who setuped this museum have no sense towards the art i guess.
