Dive down the rabbit hole for an adventure that'll make both casual viewers and the Alice interested. Let us walk you through this magical experience. This one is for the fantasy lovers and curious explorers： explore Alice's Won-derland at the Art Science Museum.

Get your hands on a map and fall into this fantasy land. Every map is different， and you could play as the Cheshire Cat， the Mad Hatter， the Queen or the White Rabbit. Take a minute to slot your map into the wooden panel on the second table and the icon of your character will appear.

Hallway of Doors

The journey doesn't begin until you pick a door.  We won't tell you which door leads to the next step. In fact， we strongly suggest going through all of them. Catch the beginnings of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland being penned into life， and Alice taking her first steps off the page and into the frame.

Looking Glass House

As the Wonderland heroine gets more screen time， special effects and props evolved to bring audiences closer to the world of riddles and impossible creatures. Marvel at film's advancements， peek through the looking glass and don't miss the Queen's dress standing at the centre of the room-the first to win an Emmy（艾美奖） for the best costume design.

The Pool of Tears

Let's take a moment to appreciate how this exhibition shows the multiple interpretations of Alice and the growth of film technology at the same time. We particularly loved admiring the illustrated slides used in magic lanterns， which is another name for early image projectors（投影仪）.

The Rabbit Sends in a Little Bill

This leg of the journey plunges you into the depths of Wonderland's darkest and strangest tales， with one of them being Czech filmmaker Jan vankmajer's interpretation， reproducing this childhood fantasy with unsettling surrealism.

The Queen's Croquet Ground

On the back of your map is where you can create your own toy soldier， the more absurd the better. Scan yourself into Sir John Tenniel's original illustration to join the rest of the soldiers on the Queen's croquet（槌球） ground.

A Mad Tea Party

Expect charming light dished out with spades of colour. Take it from us， tea will be the last thing on your mind at this party. As the clocks tick and the background turns into a breath of sparkles， this magical experience transports you to different worlds within seconds as the walls fall apart to reveal fantasy after fantasy... Also， tell us if you can solve the riddle on the wall！

Alice's Evidence

This was where it struck us： Traces of this enduring（不朽的） classic are almost everywhere， from references in the Matrix and Star Trek to a Simpsons remake. Watch as the representations of Alice change across different times， cultures and media-we bet you'll be surprised！
