World Erotic Art Museum review

The world's capital of hedonism now has its own museum dedicated to erotic pleasures. At 12,000sq ft, the collection of sex toys, paintings and artefacts is the second largest of its kind in the world, spanning all periods (ancient Rome, Victorian, art deco) and ethnicities (from Chinese to African). The penis collection is the highlight - a mind-boggling array of phalluses in all shapes, colours and sizes. If you're not overwhelmed by the giant penis (over 6ft) then you'll be blown away (pun intended) by the wooden four-poster bed, where the four posts are, you guessed it, shaped like giant penises. Unsurprisingly, under-18s are not admitted. What is surprising is that the museum's owner/curator, Naomi Wilzig, is a septuagenarian grandmother.
