You've planned your trip carefully, you've come to Belgrade so excited, ready to explore and walk a lot, eat delicious Serbian fast food outside with nice weather, meet people on the street. But... the weather forecast missed again -- it's raining! What to do? Here is a solution, and a good one: Museum of Illusions, or Muzej Iluzija!
It’s a place where you can evoke your imagination and have fun. Once again you can see how easy is to fool a human brain, or in other words, how badly a human brain wants to be tricked... So be careful after you leave the museum, maybe you won't see the world as it is.
Muzej Iluzija is situated in the city center, Nušićeva street. Branislav Nušić, was our great writer, and maybe it’s not only a coincidence that the museum is on this street. Nušić was a fantastic satirist, and for that you must have a lot of imagination. The street is short but full of content, for example after the museum you can drink some good coffee in Greenet.
