A few days ago, a space where art, science and magic lend a hand has been opened in Bulgaria's Burgas on the Black Sea coast. Guests of the new Museum of the Impossible are transported to parallel worlds to learn more about the universe. An anti-gravity room, a Big-Little Lounge, a space station and an Endless Room of Mirrors are some of the attractions that await young and old alike.

About a hundred different interactive installations are spread over two floors and 350 square meters. Everyone can touch the exhibits, take pictures and understand how perceptions can deceive us. The museum is not just entertainment - it also has an educational direction, and  there is a scientific story behind every exhibit. For example, visitors will see how the Penrose triangle works - this impossible shape that simply shouldn't exist, we learn from Ivaylo Radoslavov, part of the Museum's team, in an interview with BNR-Burgas.


The creators also have an idea for themed events related to various holidays such as Christmas and Halloween. 

"We can also react for Saint Nicholas Day - the holiday of Burgas. Our idea is to change the exhibits so that they are different. If a person visits us on Sunday, then next month on the same date, the museum will be completely different," says Ivaylo Radoslavov.
