Imagine yourself in total darkness where your only way around is by using other senses – touch, hearing and smell. Interesting? Unusual? Or natural. Experiencing an hour of blindness could open your eyes to an entirely new world. The Invisible Exhibition in Prague is an unique way to “see” and learn more about an invisible world. You will be led by a visually impaired instructor who will lead you on a journey that is sure to enrich your mind.

Full Description
This is a unique concept which brings the sighted closer to the world of the visually impaired.
An hour in complete darkness changes your perception of space and forces you to rely on other senses. The exhibition accompanies visitors through a number of specially darkened rooms, where they can experience situations from everyday life. How they orient themselves, for example, in a busy city, but also in nature, or at a concert.
Our blind guides take care of a safe stay in the dark. At the same time, during each tour, your guide tries to show you that the world can be perceived in many different ways, not just with your eyes.
At the visible part of the exhibition we show you devices and objects used by the blind on a daily basis, you will get to know Braille, paint blindly, walk with a white stick and get to know other aides intended to help the visually impaired.
At the end of the tour you will find a pleasant cafe, also blanketed in darkness, where you can get a coffee or lemonade from your guide. So bring some change with you, the best are the coins so you can learn how to know the value of money without using your sight. Good luck!!
Let us show you how the world changes around you and how you yourself can change within it.
The exhibition provides the possibility of employment for the visually impaired. Your support and participation is much appreciated.
