    A fantastic place for adults and children. The kids can spend at least 2~3 hours here! You can play some toys on the top floor.
  • By Ann Stafford
    Very good. Not only shows toys from the past in glass cabinets but also has toys and games to play with as you go round. Quite nostalgic for some toys of my youth but there were also different toys from Germany. Lots of miniatures and dolls. Lots of many different construction toys. Lots for everyone.
