WONDR Experience

MuseumPlaygroundTourist Attraction+2

What an incredible experience! There was so much to see and it was all very beautifully creatively made. The staff were really nice too! One of the employees kept asking to take pictures of the two of us and he made very loving photos along the way. The food is very delicious as well! Not overly sweet, which was surprising for me consider having a milkshake and cake. Overal, if you love taking pictures, then this is definitely the place to do so! 🩷

If not, just wait 3 minutes and push the button again. We had no problem with having as hot of water as we wanted. We used the campground bik

Very nice and spacey place to ice skate in open air. I can fully recommend for outdoor experience. We normally do ~15km in 1 hour session. There is a rental with skates too if you don’t have own skates or just want to try out. In my opinion it’s quite expensive entry and rental is for sure expensive specially for what you get. But that’s just an opinion. If you’re planning on skating, buy your own skates (it’s roughly cost of 6-7x renting it out). The 10 times entry cards is great. Ladies at the
