I have to say this museum surprised me in a very positive way, I though it was a small one, but OMG they have tons of planes/cars /trains/vehicles/ & scale models, the museum is mostly directed towards aviation but includes other pieces related with transport. They have contributions from aviation professionals, hard-core modelist and artists. I was lucky to get a tour by the museum director, if you get the chance of talking with him, he will blow up your mind with amazing stories about the pieces of the museum and how they got them.

However, the big surprise was an incredible large collection of airplanes models. I don't remember precisely how many models of airplanes are shown here but are in the order of 10000. There is a fairly large collection of naval models that is really worth to see. So it's the right place to bring your kids. I can't conclude without mentioning another original section of this museum: a section of the silverware used in the commercial lines of over 50 country from the very early...
