May 18th marks the World Museum Day. Have a look at some of the world's strangest museums.
Washington Banana Museum
Ann Mitchell Lovell really loves bananas. In fact, she loves them enough to not only run the Washington Banana Museum, which features almost 4,000 items related to the world's best-selling fruit, but to also upload photos of her favorite items from the museum online so those who can' t make it to the physical location can still enjoy the virtual Banana Museum.
Roswell UFO Museum
Exhibits include information on the Roswell incident of 1947, crop circles, other UFO sightings, Area 51, and abductions (劫持). Regardless of your personal opinion about UFOs, there's no denying that the museum has been quite successful: Since it opened its doors in 1992, it has outgrown two different locations, and now occupies an old movie theater.
Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum
The Ramen Museum is only an hour away and offers delicious, delicate ramen noodles from some of the top ramen restaurants in Japan. As you might expect, this is one tasty tour, as the museum allows you to taste some of the most famous noodles from throughout the country.
Beijing Tap Water Museum
One of the key ingredients(原料)you need to make ramen is water, so when you're done with strange museums in Japan, maybe you should head to China to learn more about tap water, specifically the history of the first water plant in Beijing. Here you can study over 300 items to better familiarize yourself with the 100 year-old history of tap water in China. The best thing about this museum is that any of its drinking fountains can provide you with a lasting gift of your trip.
