🔗 National Transport & Toy Museum in Wanaka | Atlas Obscura

It’s impossible to describe everything that’s here: cars spanning the Morris Minor to a Ferrari 400I, Air New Zealand airplanes, almost every type of Lego set, a Barbie section, and vintage items like cast-iron banks and typewriters.

Not sure I understand how typewriters fit into the museums theme … but it continues to amaze how much stuff like this floats around New Zealand.

@JohnPhilpin whoa! It’s hard to imagine any kind of transportation arriving in these colors today. What an incredible place to visit.

@bradenslen I only found about it through Atlas Obscura - total news to me - and to Jax - who is a native Kiwi.
