From an albino alligator to a 3,000 lb piece of the Berlin Wall, a Swarovski-Covered Crystal Mini Cooper and three unbelievable human shrunken heads from Ecuador, the attraction features exhibits so bizarre they leave visitors wondering if something so outlandish could really be true.
Additional strange items on display include a magnificent portrait of Princess Diana made of laundry lint from a clothes dryer, a copy of The Last Supper painted on a grain of rice, the famous sweater worn by Marilyn Monroe during her last photo shoot on the beaches of Malibu, a mummified man, and a genuine moon rock.
Robert Ripley, the globetrotting creator of the Ripley’s Believe It or Not! cartoon in 1918, displayed his first collection of oddities at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1933, filling the exhibition hall with hundreds of genuine artefacts he had gathered from his travels to more than 200 countries. Today, his exotic treasures can be seen in 30 Ripley’s Believe It or Not! attractions worldwide.
Mirror Maze - tickets must be purchased on the door to gain entry
The mirror maze challenge provides family friendly entertainment that will appeal to children, teens and adults alike. The maze consists of a series of columns and arches surrounded by hundreds of mirrored reflections in every direction. The floor lighting enhances the “infinity effect” by giving the illusion of continuing hallways, when in fact you may be at a dead end!
