Over the past 25 years, Adrian and his 12-strong design team have created more than 400 full-size mazes across six continents and 27 countries, including hedge mazes for palaces, castles and chateaux as well as mazes for theme parks, zoos and wildlife parks. He designed the world's first-ever cornfield maze and has set six maze records as recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records.
Marvin B. Shaire, Chief Operating Officer of Nakheel's Retail Corp, said:
"Ibn Battuta Mall has been known for its uniqueness and the addition of this fascinating mirror maze will further contribute to the mall's popularity among visitors from across the UAE. Entering a mirror maze can be an intriguing experience, as from the inside a mirror maze seems up to six times larger than it really is. One sees impossible reflections and there seems to be choices in all directions, but most of them are just illusions.
"The design of the maze has the trademark Adrian Fisher class and brilliance, and blends perfectly with the overall theme of the China Court. Children and adults alike will find this mirror maze an absorbing experience."
The maze will remain open until February 4 and is open to the public from 10am to 10pm on all days of the week.
The world's first mirror maze was created in 1894, and during the first half of the twentieth century small-scale mirror mazes were popular attractions on piers and at amusement parks in Europe and North America.
