Judges’ comments

Puzzling World is a long-established Wanaka tourist attraction, using a sequence of illusions to confound visitors and show them that all is not as it seems. This quirky extension celebrates the illusions within, but provided many challenges for a construction team that worked through a heavy winter to achieve a stunning result. Many difficult issues were overcome by “the team” who worked in a true spirit of collaboration. A great result and a great addition to Wanaka’s tourist attractions.
