Invisible Exhibition - Free entrance for three days

We wrote an article about the Invisible Exhibition in Budapest a while ago, and two days ago I noticed a commercial in television about the Invisible Exhibition. It told that they would have free entrance to the exhibition from the 1st of January until the 3rd of January. Great news, isnt it? I could not see the information anywhere on the webpage of the exhibition, but I guess if they told so in a commercial at the television it is true! Use the opportunity, and get insight into the life of a blind person!

Another interesting addition to the exhibition is the fact that they invite their visitors to an invisible dinner, starting Thursday 29 January. After that they will arrange it every Thursday. This can only be joined if you pre-register by sending an email to info@lathatatlan.hu. More information can be about this at the webpage of the exhibition (information only exists in Hungarian).

The Invisible Exhibition

The title caught my attention and I wondered; what can this be? Reading on I realised that the Invisible Exhibition was giving an insight into the life of a blind person. It sounded very interesting, so I decided to drop by checking it out.

How does a blind play chess?
The question was answered in the start of the exhibition, in the visible part. Here we were shown several objects, tools and articles that help the daily life of a blind person. Among these were a chess table, a weight, a speaking computer and so.

How does it feel to be blind?
The first session was just a warm-up before being taken into the dark. No light sources were there, so you felt as a blind person yourself. Here you got the chance to visit the pub, walk in the city, visit a statue park and experience how it feels to be blind in several situations.

The exhibition worked as an eye-opener, giving a little insight into the world of the blind, and it was also special that the guide escorting you in the darkness was a blind person.

Would you like to visit the exhibition as well? If so you will find useful information about the Invisible Exhibition below. For those who want an English speaking guide it is recommended to contact the exhibition before to tell them you are coming.
