My friend Mark Krawczuk recently discovered an under-appreciated attraction at San Francisco's Pier 39, Magowan's Infinite Mirror Maze.
In his latest newsletter (which is a delightful find itself), he describes it:
There's something about the atmosphere at Pier 39 that set me and my friend Julie on edge. Something about the ingenuous tourist trap consumer culture that they've been able to refine to its purest form. We nearly turned back before we got to this marvel. I'm so glad we pushed through.It's unlike anything I've ever been to before: it evokes joy, awe, glee, fascination and terror at the same time. It's premise seems so simple, but it truly blew my mind. I truly enjoyed my time there, but I have to admit I was glad when we solved the way out. I highly recommend it! And a bargain at $5.
