Mirror Maze in Petrin Park — Attraction in Prague

The Mirror Maze on Petřín Hill (Zrcadlové bludiště na Petříně) is a popular tourist attraction in Prague, located near the Petřín Lookout Tower. It was built in 1891 as part of the Jubilee Exhibition and was inspired by the famous Vyšehrad Gate.

What to Expect: • A maze of mirrors that creates optical illusions and challenges visitors to find their way through. • The Hall of Laughter, featuring distorted mirrors that create funny reflections. • A historical diorama depicting the Battle of Charles Bridge (1648), when Prague defended itself against Swedish forces during the Thirty Years’ War.

Visitor Information: • Location: Petřínské sady, Prague 1 (near Petřín Tower) • Opening Hours: Varies by season (usually 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM or later) • Ticket Prices: Around 150 CZK for adults, discounts for children, students, and families

The maze is a fun attraction for both kids and adults, making it a great stop while exploring...

We went to the petrin tower before going to the maze. We bought there two combination tickets for the petrin tower as well as the mirror maze. We did this with the thought that we wouldn’t have to get in line, since we already had tickets. Today was an extremely hot day and the queue for the mirror maze was AT LEAST 30 mins long in the burning sun. I asked politely whether we also had to wait in line, since we already bought the tickets and everyone else was waiting in line to buy tickets. The gentleman who was working there said we still had to get in line. We ended up not going and wasting money on this. I am not going to wait around 30 mins in the burning sun, just because the people in front of me have to buy tickets that I already had. They should start thinking about...

The mirror maze was a mayor let-down, the staff a bit grumpy and it all seemed more of a cash cow. On the outside it looks bigger but once inside you're gonna be disappointed by the short walk it actually is through the maze. Maybe 4-5 corners. There's even staff inside the maze directing you to the exit quick enough so you won't spend too much time in there. And don't touch the mirrors or the staff gets on to you! After the 'maze' you enter a room with about 10 funny mirrors but honestly, once you seen 2 you've seen them all. We spend not even 10 minutes in there and it's not really worth the money (200 Kč for 2 adults and 1child under 6 free of charge) We were wondering why the people coming out looked so unhappy. We found out the hard way....
