Cenk Gümüşcüoğlu: As a fan of Bond movies I came running to this exhibition. Some of the vehicles Bond had used are displayed and some original storyboards. Not very rich in content and therefore a little expensive.
Cenk Gümüşcüoğlu: If you enjoy Sherlock Holmes mysteries and TV series like Sherlock and Elementary, you might want to visit this house. It's like a small theme park. Souvenir shop is rich. Entrance fee is overpriced.
Cenk Gümüşcüoğlu: A merchandise store for The Beatles, nothing historical or authentic about the place. There are some limited edition (and expensive) vinyls being sold and the rest is logo printed ordinary products...
Cenk Gümüşcüoğlu: Not only is the museum important for its collections but the building itself is interesting too. It's a spacey, industrial looking building and has a great bookstore. Should be visited in a rainy day.

Cenk Gümüşcüoğlu: A museum full of product and brand designs since the Victorian era. It's great to observe how the famous FMCG brands evolved in time. Must-see for agency people.(This museum is NOT about advertising.)
