ЛабиринтУм

Ever wondered what it’s like to step into a world of optical illusions and mind-bending puzzles? You’re in luck because we’re standing before LabyrinthUm, a unique interactive museum right here in St. Petersburg. LabyrinthUm isn’t your typical museum filled with static displays. Instead, it’s a playground for the mind. LabyrinthUm invites you to touch, explore, and engage with exhibits inspired by the works of Leonardo da Vinci. The museum’s main attraction, the mirror maze, is a disorienting but delightful experience. Don’t worry, you’ll be given gloves to protect the mirrors as you navigate the maze’s surprising twists and turns. Beyond the maze at LabyrinthUm, prepare to be amazed by plasma globes that respond to your touch, creating mesmerizing patterns of light. For younger visitors, LabyrinthUm offers a water play area where they can build dams and channels. There’s also a crawling maze to burn off some energy. Remember to take your shoes off before entering this unique crawling experience at LabyrinthUm. One of the most popular exhibits at LabyrinthUm allows you to create giant bubbles, some even big enough to enclose your entire body. The joy on children’s faces as they play with these shimmering spheres is infectious. LabyrinthUm also houses several optical illusions, including the “Cafe Wall” illusion. The lines appear slanted but are actually parallel. The Mirror Room at LabyrinthUm lets you view infinite reflections of yourself, making for a fun and unique photo opportunity. And be sure to check out the Archimedes’ Screw. This ancient device, refined by da Vinci, demonstrates the principles of water movement. Finally, no visit to LabyrinthUm is complete without a trip through the echo tube. Shout into the tube and hear your voice reverberate back in a fascinating acoustic demonstration. LabyrinthUm is a true hidden gem of St. Petersburg, offering a fun and educational experience for all ages.
