Planning your visit

The Museum of the Impossible in Burgas combines optical illusions with interactive science installations, and its audience is largely the Bulgarian Black Sea coast's summer holiday traffic — Burgas is the gateway to Sunny Beach, Sozopol and Nessebar, and receives substantial family tourism.

The exhibits cover perception, physics and art installations designed for participation and photography.

Burgas itself is more pleasant than its reputation as a transit city suggests, with a long sea garden along the front, and the salt lakes north of the city are a significant birdwatching site on the Via Pontica migration route — a genuinely notable natural attraction that most beach visitors miss.

The museum offers an indoor hour when the coastal sun becomes excessive. Allow an hour. The main booking is an entry ticket. Current availability is listed below.
