Summer is the perfect time to visit museums. Here at Xyza, we love museums and often have heated debates as to what constitutes a museum. After all, are pop-up museums like the Museum of Ice Cream really a museum? Some say yes—others say no. No matter which side you’re on, there’s one thing that most people agree with: there are a lot of cool and interesting museums around the world. From the traditional to the quirky, below are some of our favorite museums around the world. What’s yours? Send us a photo of your favorite museum and tell us all about it by emailing editor@xyzanews.com!
Digital Art Museum – Tokyo, Japan

It’s a museum unlike anything you’ve ever seen before, with art that dances on the walls around you. It’s an immersive art experience that invites patrons (that’s visitors like us!) to touch, create, and add to the art experience. Draw a picture of a sea creature and watch it swim on a large wall resembling an aquarium or draw an insect and watch it crawl on the floor. Or if you’d rather take a walk through a field of glowing flowers or bounce through a room filled with humongous balloons, you can do that too. No matter where you turn, you’ll find amazing art in motion, tantalizing your senses.
The Louvre Museum – Paris, France

It’s known for housing some of the most amazing artwork in the world, including the Mona Lisa, one of Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous paintings. As much as The Louvre Museum is famous for its impressive art inside, it’s perhaps equally famous for the actual structure of the building. Its signature pyramid-like glass dome is one of the most famous landmarks in all of France.
Pacific Pinball Museum – Alameda, California

Yep, it’s an entire museum dedicated to pinball machines! If you aren’t sure what these things are, just think about it as the father of arcade games before digital games came along. The Pacific Pinball Museum is just a short drive from San Francisco and people young and old are invited to check out the machines and play on them too!
Madame Tussauds – London, England

Chihuly Garden And Glass Museum – Seattle, Washington

The Spy Museum – Washington DC

National Museum Of Mathematics – New York City, NY
