- Mirror Maze: The Mirror Maze is beautifully done with red arches continuing endlessly into time due to the placement of the mirrors. There are mirrored paths, surprising corners, dead ends, and continuous circles.
Adventure Sport

Museums

From the tiniest detail of preserving claws to having a collection of the dinosaur heads, this museum is a fascinating walk down the Jurassic era with over 219 dinosaur species fossils.

It is possible that you would have never imagined what Mona Lisa would look like in real life – but we at the museum give your imagination a lifelike visual of her. You can read with Shakespeare, sing with the Beatles, have a drink with Humphrey Bogart or even woo your favorite Disney Princess.

This museum is an attempt to exhibit the treasure of Tribal Art & Craft with its astounding diversity and beauty and to create community awareness about the way of the aboriginals live and still exist in the changing times.
- Oddities Museum: For the fans of Star Wars (and even people who have vaguely heard of it), Nutty Darth Vader and Boba Fett greet you at the entrance – made completely of nuts & bolts! What starts with randomly assorted Believe it or not facts, slowly grows into a very interesting expedition of nature & science.
