Tricklandia –  STARÝ SMOKOVEC At first, we simply get the impression that what we see is real. Only later do we realise it’s a trick, once we give it a bit more thought. Trick-art artists try their best to “deceive” you – and you are going to want to identify as many of these tricks as possible. It’s exciting and entertaining for everyone!
