Getting lost in a museum is easy, and aimlessly wandering from wing to wing is a nice, relaxing, not-at-all-claustrophobic way to spend an afternoon. Alternatively you could venture into The BIG Maze at DC’s National Building Museum, an on-site installation filled with winding paths, dead-ends, and a cool reveal at the end of the road…
From the outside, there’s no possible way to see what awaits within the perimeter, but a funny thing happens when the threshold is crossed. As the path gets closer to the center, the walls gradually get lower and lower, and then: Voila! You’ve made it to the very middle, you can see everything rise up around you, and (apparently) the exit route is clear.
