In their words
“Overall, the exhibits themselves are creative and worth experiencing once, but the poor organisation significantly affected our visit.”
“A few sections were quite overstimulating for me due to the intense visuals, lights, and sensory effects”
“Make sure you book your tickets well in advance! It's incredibly popular, and tickets can sell out months ahead.”
“the experience itself is even more impressive in person than in pictures.”
