ZAGREB, 16 July 2019 – The popular Croatian Museum of Illusions has now opened its first museum in China.

The Shanghai museum is the 16th Museum of Illusions and the 14th opened internationally. It is also the first one in China. The museum opened three months after an agreement was signed between the Museum of Illusions and their Chinese partner, long-time promoters of Croatian-Chinese trade, Caija Yua. The agreement was signed at the 16+1 Summit in Dubrovnik in April.
