Tropenmuseum, Amsterdam

With the beautiful expositions from this large ethnologist's museum, visitors are able to roam through several worlds; through Latin America, Nigeria, Bali, Thailand, Oceania and all of the other exotic places. It's the largest anthropological museum in the Netherlands. The very realistic reconstructions of local environments and attractively displayed exhibits draw you right into the daily lives of the people of the tropics and subtropics. You see how people live and work and even get an insight into their religion. The old meets new as modern non-western art is shown next to living traditions of world cultures and their history.
