Istanbul Toy Museum, Istanbul

A museum with over 4,000 toys and miniatures from Turkey and abroad; many of them antiques, all of them collected by poet and writer Sunay Akin. They are housed in an exquisite wooden house. 

Some toys date as far back as 1700 and many of them tell a story. For example, there is the moon section dedicated to space toys and a section where classic toy trains are displayed. It’s refreshing for children from a digital age to see what children played with, in the past.
