This attraction newly opened this year in Tenerife. The island of Tenerife is one of the Canary islands, in the Atlantic, off the coast of north Africa, although its address is Spain because it is Spanish and Spanish speaking.
As for this delightful attraction, if you want something to visit in Europe, the owner has another one in the Czech Republic.
Absurdia in Tenerife starts with some classic optical illusions such as squares and oblongs which seem to be different shapes, or different from each other. Kaleidoscopes multiply images. You can stop to read the explanations and stand on the spots marked on the floor to see the illusions. My husband, being technically minded, liked this.
Fun For Families
I thought the attraction would interest only adults. However, a couple of mothers we saw had brought along toddlers in strollers. The little ones loved running from exhibit to exhibit and turning the kaleidoscope wheels. Spin, spin, spin. Create different patterns and colours.
Some of the exhibits involve stopping onto mirror floors. A scary moment, until you feel underfoot how solid it is. Looking down at multiple images is scary, looking forwards is amazing. Look around, up, down, multiple images of yourself.
I loved the colours. And for me, the best illusion was the series of books, a great backdrop for me as an author.
See my other posts on this attraction. I shall add more pictures later.
