What people say
"This is a fun little exhibition. It's a single floor, interactive experience, at the time of writing it was €21 per adult. (21 July 2026) The illusions inside are nice to experience, and offer descriptions in both Italian and English. Great way to get out of the heat for a little bit. I spent about 1 hour inside and got to see every illusion exhibit they have to offer. They have a good staff that will take photos for you if you go alone. It's a fun way to spend some time on your way to another location around the city."
