About This Museum
Did you know your brain can be tricked into believing you're standing on a ceiling? That's the kind of mind-bending fun waiting for you at the Museum of Illusions in Cape Town. It’s not your typical quiet art museum; it's an interactive playground packed with over 80 exhibits designed to confuse and delight. You'll find yourself laughing as you 'shrink' in the Ames Room or try to stand straight in the Vortex Tunnel. It’s a place where nothing is quite as it seems, making for unforgettable photos and a truly unique day out.
Collection Highlights
Don't miss the Infinity Room, a dazzling space of endless reflections, or the clever holograms that seem to float in mid-air. The Rotated Room is a classic favorite, perfect for a photo that defies gravity.
