Oxford Illusion Musuem

Oxford Illusion Musuem

Date of Adventure: 30 Jun, 2025

Set over four floors, this place is an absolute trip! I’m not a huge fan of illusions, mainly because I feel quite nauseous looking them but I really enjoyed it.

Here’s some of our fave bits:

⬆️Upside-down room
🪞Mirror maze (this was quite hilarious!)
🔢Infinity dodecahedron
🪄Glowing wands
🕶️Upside-down glasses
🐰Rabbit hole
🧺Infinity picnic

There’s loads of other trippy pictures, spinning things and things that aren’t quite as they seem over the four floors but the above were our fave bits and we went through the whole place twice over two hours.

This is brilliant fun for the kids and something a bit different!

Fancy buying me a ko-fi?

Want to support my work?

Feel free to buy me a (strong!) coffee, it will help fuel my adventures near and far. Support can come in many form though: sharing my website in your school WhatsApp group or liking a Facebook post is equally appreciated.
