    Great heritage
  • By e mezhik
    Models are of the local heritage houses (school, amusement park, grocery store, etc). Made by one of the locals.Great effort even though the models themselves are quite basic (comparing to big-city museums). $5 per adult, $3 kids, $12 for family of 2+2. Good playground by the side of the museum.
