Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 7 reviews
A museum of "theater city" Dotonbori. Which replicates a 200-year-old theater. It have small revolbing stage. Revolbing stage was born at Dotonbori theater district in 1758. You can ride revolbing stage, and take movies or photos as if you are the "Kabuki actor". (Kimono in photo panels is real Kabuki actor costume! If you shoot in two dimensions, it looks like you're really wearing it.) Main exhibit is a 20minute time travel with audio plays in English, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. You can get the "theater city" Dotonbori Map, which is only available to visitors. The map is an excerpted representation of only the theater city's related facilities, and also shows the old times. It comes with coupons that offer discounts from certain facilities nearby.

We enjoyed our experience here. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. We watched a 13 minute video presentation about the history of theatre in Dotonbori while enjoying complimentary tea and sweets. We then watched a performance including magic and tricks. It was interactive (audience involvement) and lots of fun. We then tried out the revolving stage and had plenty of photo opportunities. Our children (aged 9 and 7) enjoyed it very much. Highly recommended for families seeking a quiet rest from the shops and restaurants.

A new amusement facility will be opening soon in MIRAIZA OSAKA-JO, the shopping and dining complex that opened in front of the Osaka Castle Tower in October last year. The Illusion Museum brings together magic, tricks, and illusions from all ages and cultures around the world. The highly popular MAGUS, the first Japanese in 20 years to win a Merlin Award, described as the “Oscars of Magic”, has acted as a consultant in the development of the museum. From exhibits of historical artifacts about magic and illusions from around the world to an area where visitors can experience the latest illusions first-hand, and even performances by illusionists right in front of visitors, this is a new, unprecedented type of museum.

The attractions on the museum are spot on, left out of there mesmerised by how many different ways the brain interprets the world.
