Upside-Down Room
The sofa is on the ceiling, the chandelier on the floor. Flip the photo and you're the one walking upside down.
Baku Illusion Museum
Don't trust your eyes.
Three floors and 20 illusion rooms in Baku's Old City, right by the Shirvanshahs' Palace.
In the heart of Baku, twenty rooms across three floors are waiting for you. Each one has a single rule: don't trust your eyes.
The trip starts at the first wall.
Two faces and a spiral meet you in the entrance hall. From here on, nothing is what it looks like.
Twenty rooms. Not one of them tells the truth.
Also inside: the Ames Room, the Infinity Room, the Mirror Maze, the Vortex Tunnel and the Perspective Rooms.
The Clone Table
Sit down alone and the table fills up with you. Counting yourselves is harder than it sounds.
3D Wall Art
The wall is flat, but on camera you end up inside the jar.
Bamboo Forest
One step and you're sharing the bamboo with two pandas.
3D Projection Hall
Jellyfish drift off the walls and swim under your feet.
