The most equally wonderful and strange museum of San Francisco bears the name of Robert Ripley - American traveler, writer, artist and collector . Mr. Ripley traveled literally half the world and from everywhere tried to bring the most amazing, incredible, mysterious, and sometimes repulsive gizmos . As the official slogan of the museum says, this is the only place in San Francisco (and, I think, in all of the USA) where you can see the dried female torso, the mummified leg of the Egyptian mummy, the paintings made and from a tape recorder, and an elephant about two trunks .

Ripley Museum "If you want - believe, do not want to! "Is located on two floors and occupies a total area of ​​more than 1000 square meters. The exposition is divided into 17 thematic galleries and has about 400 artifacts. Here you can take a picture next to the wax copies of the tallest person on the planet and a three-legged musician, see the mummy of a mermaid from Fiji (in fact, it's nothing more than a monkey's head with a fish skeleton) and get into the technology of making dried human heads. And the Mirror Labyrinth and the Laser race will appeal to children.
