The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures

Spanning 33,000 square feet, this museum holds the world's largest collection of fine-scale miniatures and one of the nation's largest collections of antique toys.

The move: Peer through magnifying glasses at the mind-bogglingly detailed, shrunken-down furniture and a 9-foot-tall dollhouse with working plumbing, then find the antique doll from the 1750s featuring real human hair.
