#ediinsider After we visited Edinburgh Castle, we took a walk at the nearby streets. It was during this walk when we discovered an interesting place called Camera Obscura & World Of Illusions. We purchased the tickets and off we went. There are five levels of Illusions in this building. Level 2 is Bewilderworld, Level 3 is Eye Spy Edinburgh, Level 4 is Light Fantastic and Level 5 is Magic Gallery. Not only you can see all sorts of Illusions, there is also a rooftop terrace whereby you can enjoy a panaroma view of Edinburgh. We certainly had great fun. Address: The Royal Mile, 549 Castlehill, Edinburgh EH1 2ND, United Kingdom
