Paradox Museum in Knightsbridge is a self-guided, indoor experience built around more than fifty mind-bending exhibits exploring science, art and perception. You can float weightlessly in the Zero Gravity Room, vanish into a painted wall in the Camouflage Room, pose in the upside-down Reversed Room, lose your balance in the Paradox Tunnel, or strike poses above the Infinity Well. It suits visitors of all ages, lasts around ninety minutes, and is mostly wheelchair accessible, though the Zero Gravity Room and pram access are limited. Only service dogs are permitted, and food or drink cannot be taken inside. Located in Westminster, it's close to London Victoria station 0.9 miles away, with 778 bookable places to stay within 5 miles on BritStays for those planning an overnight visit.
