The experience
Don't forget to add this mind-boggling adventure at the Museum of Illusions to your Philly itinerary.
Just an hour inside will leave you feeling inspired. Each unique exhibit inside the Museum of Illusions Philidelphia features head-scratching construction and graphics to keep you guessing – _"how did they do that?"_
Look for the Insta-perfect photo opportunity with prompts in each exhibit to maximize the optical effect. Strike off-the-wall poses in the Rotation Room, duplicate your best angles in the Kaleidoscope, and get trippy in the Vortex Tunnel. Feeling competitive? Challenge your friends and family to some gameplay in the Smart Playroom.
