The Musical Instrument Museum, which opened in 2010, is the largest museum of its kind in the world. There are over 6,500 instruments from over 200 countries, from a guitar played by Taylor Swift to a nose harp to the still-working Belgian dance hall organ, which gets played every day. The Geographic Galleries are organized, as you might guess, by location, and then find the instruments, and some costumes, of celebrity musicians in the Artist Gallery.
One of the best features is the wireless headset you get when you enter, so when you come up to an instrument on display, the headset automatically switches to give you the audio for the looped video of that instrument being played. Plus, make your own music at the grand piano in the entrance hall or alongside kids in the Experience Gallery.
