Explore Sofia’s Museum of Illusions for clever photo tricks, family fun, helpful staff, and an easy one-hour break indoors.

“Nice trip to the Illusion museum. Good way to escape the summer sun for 1 hour or so. First time there, and staff were friendly and approachable. We went in the afternoon, and though it was busy, we didn’t have any problems with experiencing some of the exhibits. I don’t think you can spend more than 1 hour here, as there’s not quite enough to keep you entertained and engaged.”
