I recently visited AYA Universe, and I have to say, I was genuinely impressed by the entire experience. Having visited many similar attractions around the world, with the pinnacle being teamLab attractions in Japan, I felt this was easily in the same league. The venue offers a wide range of exhibits involving light, sound, motion, and music, which combine to create an environment that is mesmerising on every level. We spent around 90 minutes exploring the various zones, each offering something unique. We visited mid-week and the crowds were pretty low, which meant you could sit back and enjoy everything without feeling rushed. I’d 100% recommend a visit to AYA Universe; it’s fun, fascinating, and the atmosphere is fantastic!

This place is amazing and feels magical. Located in Wafi Mall, this place is easy to get to. The entire experience is impressive and very futuristic. Its area has its own unique vibe and beauty, visuals, lighting and sound. A great place for videos and photos. The staffs are very friendly, manured and always ready to help you take a perfect picture. This

A Mesmerizing Experience for All Ages! AYA Universe is a must-visit if you love lights, colors, and immersive art. The facility is divided into 12 unique zones, each more beautiful than the last. The Flora zone is incredibly colorful and magical, while the Drift zone offers a relaxing experience where you can lie down and watch the stars. It is fantastic for families—kids love the interactive elements where the floor responds to their steps! It takes about 1-2 hours to go through, and every corner is picture-perfect. Highly recommended!

Beautiful and unique experience!! You live in a world of visual illusion and manipulation for a while, which truly excites your senses ♥️ I would recommend it to people who love trying something different and unusual. The staff are mostly good. Some staff members seem a little tense and stressed when speaking or guiding visitors, but overall they are polite. The price is expensive, but if you have discounts such as Fazaa, Smiles, or any other offers, then the price is reasonable.
