Distorted Visual Perception - Puzzling World

Passing through the town of Wanaka on the South Island, it is a must-visit for tour groups, about 1 kilometer away from Lake Wanaka is Puzzling World. This is an attraction suitable for all ages, with over a hundred thousand visitors each year. Its exterior features leaning and swaying towers, which aptly represent the essence of this place. The facilities inside are all about bewildering your vision and senses, leaving you puzzled yet amused. The humorous ancient Roman wall paintings beside the restroom make for a great photo op, as if you're openly using the toilet with the ancients. Since 1973, Puzzling World has become a landmark attraction in the south, a unique world-class destination. Stuart Landsborough's Puzzling World is the only theme park in the world filled with quirky content! These bizarre and wonderful buildings are perfect models for your photographs. The unique café, maze center, and gift shop also offer a distinctive experience. The bathroom at the maze center is New Zealand's most entertaining public restroom, guaranteed to keep your camera clicking. All these facilities are open free of charge. The Illusion Room, which requires an admission fee, will surely bring you a surreal, dreamlike sensation. Every room you enter will make you feel as if you're in a dream, unable to distinguish reality from illusion. The Great Maze is also an interesting challenge, equipped with emergency exits for those with limited patience to enter and exit at will. It is the world's first 'modern style' maze, a true test of visitors' skills. Regardless of age or budget, Puzzling World is definitely the ideal choice for all visitors. Come and see the leaning towers - four slanted towers and another astonishingly inclined Leaning Tower of Wanaka at 53 degrees! Why not step into the Think Tank Cafe, where you can enjoy delicious food while challenging yourself with various intellectual games on the table. Then, don't forget to visit our restroom, where there's an extra room imitating an ancient Roman style bath - a perfect photo opportunity! How about experiencing the Illusion Rooms? Here, you can escape the gaze of Einstein, watch water flow uphill, see yourself shrink, and marvel at impossible art. From a brand new, fully immersive 'Fluorescent Room' to a room where the faces of 168 celebrities seem to follow you, a room where you appear to shrink or grow, and a room where objects seem to slide upwards, as well as a large exhibition hall filled with incredible illusion sculptures, these rooms must be seen to be believed and will challenge your perception of reality. The outdoor Great Maze is designed to encourage problem-solving, physical exercise, and fun. Puzzling World invented the modern style 3D maze, but don't worry, emergency exits are provided for those with limited time or patience!
