"Costs 300 kc for a family with 1 kid.
A bit small. It's not a mirror maze, more like a short mirror path and then a bunch of distortion mirrors.
It's a bit underwhelming.
But the stroll there is beautiful with the trees and greenery."

"Extremely disappointed with this attraction.
It is not a maze at all, it’s just a mirror walk through because it is so small. It took us all of about 10 seconds to walk through. We were all in shock when we got to the end and just couldn’t believe that was it.
It’s such a shame because the decor is good and could be so much better if they just made it a lot bigger and then it would be an actual maze where people have to find their way out, but as it stands it is so small and so easy to manoeuvre around as there is only one way to go so it’s definitely not a maze."

"Amazing place with a mirror Maze and some fun fair mirrors. At the moment the fanicular is out of action so it is a long walk all up hill and steps but worth the trek."
