4. A Trippy Vortex Tunnel

We have all seen those sci-fi movies where the protagonists lead their expedition into a shaky vortex tunnel where they can find no clear footing. Well, you get to experience the same over here, the only difference is that the floor of the said bridge is completely stable, but the rotating cylinder makes one feel like they have no control over their body and often people have a hard time gaining their balance. Are you up for the challenge?

5. Anti-Gravity Room FTW!

Newton’s law of gravity has been one of the greatest discoveries in the world of science. But this exhibit will make you question them all. From balls rolling upwards to water flowing uphill, this room will make you question yourself, whether you’re standing on a slope or a flat surface. Who wouldn’t want to experience this for themselves!

6. A Game Of Cards On The Clone Table, Anyone?

Imagine this - you’re in a game of poker sitting across a group of your cloned selves. Sounds like a plot from a Netflix movie, doesn’t it? But this is exactly what happens at the Clone Table. At the circular table where you sit, it seems like you’re sitting on the table with 5 doppelgangers of yourself. In reality, the table is a circular clip reflecting a full circle in two mirrors at an angle of 60 degrees. 

7. Head On The Platter

The next exhibit takes the phrase ‘Head On The Platter’ pretty seriously. As you may have guessed, this illusion gives you the impression that your head has been served on a platter. But hey, as you already know, it’s not real, your body is hidden the entire time - *pheww*. Wouldn’t this make a great picture for your Instagram feed? We can totally imagine all the comments flowing in, already.

In the Ames Room, you can actually see your friend shrink as they walk to the other side of the room, giving you totes ‘Alice In Wonderland' feel.
