Tell me about all the quirky, unique places you visited or want to, please!
I've just been to Vagina Museum !
And I'm in love with my vulva again
Pretty empowering place. Apparently the only one of this kind in the world. There is a penis museum in Iceland I believe?
Your suggestions don't have to be sex themed. Just something out of the box, not from a usual tourist guide
Thanks |

"Tell me you had a plaster cast made of your vulva?!
I will have a think about this and get back to you.
Jo.Xx "
Haha there was a 1000 elements puzzle with vagina wall photo. Casts of different vaginas captured by an artist. You could get a poster too. |

I visited Surgeons Hall museum in Edinburgh where they have pathology exhibits (diseased body organs in jars and the like) and found it absolutely fascinating. It’s sort of connected to my job but I do have a love of the macabre as well. |

Palermo Catacombs in Sicily
Around 8000 mummified corpses all dressed and on display along the walls. Seems really creepy until you find out it used to quite traditional in Sicily to display your departed loved ones in this way, visit them, talk to them. |

"I went to an exhibition by that strange doctor guy who turned donated bodies into plasticised models.

Gunter Von Hagens. He was a real pioneer in preserving bodies and body parts. He has Parkinson's now. |

Believe it or not, I had sex in the Ripleys believe it or not on Hollywood Blvd. Its was late at night and not many people there. Kinda eerie and cool. They opened one in London and it had none of the atmosphere of the Hollywood one (or the hot Latino boys that worked there) |

I remember them like this in Rome when I was a kid, when I returned as an adult no bodies around. Asked the guide why and he said they have all had to be moved to the lower levels, as people were stealing bones on the tour |

Interested in this, only aware of Oradour-sur-Glane, preserved ruins for a very different reason. |

"Chernobyl"
My home country was one of those affected by this tragedy. I still remember my family being worried...and "strange medicine" we had to take. |

There's a penis park in Korea. It's basically just sculptures of penises. It's like the school book of a teenage boy was 'brought to life'."
I shall Google them all but this one first |

Oradour-Sur-Gleine
It wasn't evacuated
The SS suspected there was a resistance cell in the village
They locked the villagers in the church and set fire to it
The village stands as it was that day as a memorial to them |

"Berlin
Museum Der Dinge
Literally translates as 'Museum of Things'
It's just a collection of old tat, but it's oddly intriguing "
I've been to museum like that and I can't even recall where now.. it was something we passed on the way from holidays by the seaside and took a spontaneous turn.. lots of vintage items of various descriptions with no real cataloguing
Another lovely odd Museum was Hedgehog one! |

"Went to penis museum in Reykjavik x
Oh tell me more ! "
Just saw it last week, its just lots of decapitated animal penises with some colourful facts. Loved the scrotum light shades though and the cock coat hook. |
