Museum of Illusions® San Diego

Allow Museum of Illusions® San Diego to play with your perceptions and perform tricks on your mind.  

This mesmerizing collection of perspective-changing illusion rooms, enthralling installations and images will leave you spellbound. 

You’ll soon learn how what you see and what you think you see are two very different things! 

The Illusion rooms play with vision and perception and how the human brain processes these. Try to stay upright in the Tilted Room, spin through the Vortex Tunnel, and take an upside-down walk in the Reversed Room. 

The Installations exhibit is where you can hang out with your clones, swap noses with your friends and serve your head on a platter for hilarious photos. 

The Bouchet chair makes you grow and shrink down in an instant – nothing here is quite what it seems. 

In the Images exhibit, there are optical illusions that play with your perceptions, holograms that disappear and reappear and pop out of the frame and plenty of information about the hologram technology for the curious. 

The Museum of Illusions® San Diego is a visual, sensory and educational experience the whole family can enjoy together.
