    A special “museum” and “indoor” experience. The museum consists of around 40 stations that invite you to try them out. There are friendly staff everywhere who are happy to explain things or even take a photo.

    Went with my two boys 12 and 10 and we had a blast! Super cool exhibits and the staff helps you with understanding of the illusions and also with the best way to creat great videos and pics. You can easily spend 1.5-2.5 hours here.

    Fun little experience. Suitable for kids (ours 1 and 5 yrs). Short but funny and photos are nice. They have lift, so you can take you stroller. Stuff is very nice.

    If you're looking for an unforgettable and mind-bending experience, the Paradox Museum is an absolute must-see. From the moment you step through the door, you'll be transported to a world of mind-boggling illusions and mind-expanding concepts. The museum's design is simply breathtaking, with each exhibit carefully crafted to challenge your perceptions and stimulate your imagination. From the trippy optical illusions to the dizzying Paradox tunnel, every inch of this place is designed to keep you on your toes and push the limits of your perception. But it's not just about the visuals – the execution of each exhibit is equally impressive. The museum's staff have clearly put a great deal of thought and effort into every detail, ensuring that each experience is as immersive and engaging as possible. And speaking of engagement, the Paradox Museum is an absolute feast for the senses. The look and feel of the exhibits are simply awe-inspiring, with bright colors, intricate patterns, and mesmerizing shapes that will have you reaching for your camera to capture the perfect shot for your social media. But don't let the museum's photogenic qualities fool you – there's also a wealth of knowledge behind every exhibit. Each display is carefully curated to teach visitors about the science, mathematics, and psychology behind the mind-bending phenomena they're experiencing. In short, the Paradox Museum is the perfect blend of entertainment, education, and pure wonder. Whether you're a science buff, an art lover, or just looking for a unique and unforgettable experience, this place is sure to blow your mind. So grab your camera and get ready to be amazed!

    The museum itself is ok. Nothing to write home about. Many of the paradoxes are simple and can be found in any optical illusion book. Pretty touristy and aimed at them too. Good to have a fun time with your family but probably not worth paying 18 euros for.

    Soo much fun, exiting little venture in the heart of Barcelona. You can also find a little green club and get high before going in. Such a paradox!

    Creatively designed museum with many differently decorated rooms and some cool photo spots. The staff are very friendly, but you can easily walk through the museum yourself. It has 2 floors and is based on the theme of optical illusions. At the end of the museum there is a small shop with bric-a-brac. Definitely suitable for children and families =)

    Highly enjoyable for adults and children alike. The displays were all interactive, and gives a good knowledge of illusions and how we perceive and mispercieve.

    If you love interactive museums that bring a smile to your face, you HAVE to come here. This was some of the most fun I had in Barcelona. Awesome for all ages. My husband and I spent a long time checking out each exhibit, and Julio (staff) was amazing and helped us better interact with some of the exhibits and helped us get such cool photos! All the staff was really friendly, definitely come here if you're in Barcelona!

    We were looking to kill some time before an outstanding appointment and took a taxi for it. The reviews were good but I wouldn't recommend it especially not with a 5 year old. Some attractions were closed unfortunately. I find it quite expensive and also the kid rate is very high. Half the price would be more or less right for the entertainment

    One of the most amazing science based museums I have ever been too.. mirrors can do some crazy things and was fully immersive, with excellent workers, who were helpful at every portion of the walk through... More pictures will be placed... Great education for kids and hilarious for adults..
