The Virtual Well

"Step up to our fascinating well illusion! Lean forward and gaze into what seems like an infinite depth. The secret behind this mesmerizing effect lies in an optical illusion. The well's cylindrical wall is cleverly sandwiched between two parallel mirrors—one on the floor and a special half-mirror on top.

The half-mirror reflects the brightly illuminated inside, behaving like a true mirror, while allowing light from the less illuminated outside to pass through like see-through glass. This creates a cascade of reflections, as the image of the well's wall bounces back and forth between the mirrors. The result? An apparent depth that goes on indefinitely, until the reflected image gradually fades due to transmission losses. It's an optical marvel that plays with your perception and adds a touch of magic to our well exhibit!"
