If you think there's nothing exciting about traffic lights, the city of Utrecht might make you reconsider. This unique traffic light is one of several Nijntje spots all around Utrecht. Located at a rainbow crossing in the city centre, Miffy, a small white rabbit from a series of picture books created by the Dutch artist Dick Bruna, takes on the role of regulating traffic, adding a charming touch to Utrecht's streets. This will be by far the cutest way to cross the street during your visit to Utrecht.

This sprawling 30-hectare theme park lets you journey through China’s most iconic landmarks in miniature. Xi'an’s ancient Terracotta Army, the serene Leshan Buddha, and a winding model of the Great Wall are just a few of the sights you'll find here. It’s an ideal spot to get inspired to travel beyond the usual highlights like the Forbidden City and Temple of Heaven. But Splendid China Folk Village doesn’t just stop at landmarks; it brings China’s cultural diversity to life with full-scale villages that celebrate the unique customs of China’s 55 ethnic minority groups. You can catch traditional performances, taste regional snacks, and experience hands-on workshops, from craft-making to dance.

Moco Museum packs big-name modern and contemporary art into the 1904 Villa Alsberg, a townhouse steps from the Rijksmuseum. Since 2016, its intimate (if somewhat cramped) rooms have showcased Banksy, Basquiat and Kusama alongside rising stars, all sourced from private collections. The permanent Banksy exhibition shares space with rotating shows, while the gift shop peddles cheeky art merch. Expect queues for Yayoi Kusama’s infinity rooms or Warhol’s pop pieces; early mornings or late afternoons ease the squeeze. More accessible than scholarly, it’s ideal for art newcomers or those short on time.

The Johnny Cash Museum in Nashville, Tennessee honors the life and music of the country superstar often referred to as the Man in Black. Definitely worth a visit for Johnny Cash fans and music fans in general. The historic building contains the world’s largest and most comprehensive collection of Johnny Cash artifacts. The museum's owner and curator Bill Miller employs his personal friendship he once held with Johnny Cash to bring a personal touch to the collection. Special pieces like handwritten lyric sheets, marriage licenses, clothing, records, instruments, and stage props directly tied to the artist’s life can all be found here. Be sure to recharge your batteries at the coffee shop inside the museum. The menu features artisanal coffee, breakfast, and lunch. Food is served 9am–4pm.
