It is worth mentioning that each character was done nearly three months, according to the actual size of the artificial eye, teeth and natural hair using carefully prepared instruments.

This museum, when you enter it, you feel that you meet people you dreamed of meeting on the ground and live moments moving you from the past to the present as if at different times and pass through the long years with a glance this museum is located in the Lavent area in the charming city of Istanbul.

The museum consists of three main rooms, the first of which contains wax statues of famous historical figures such as Sultan Mohammed al-Fatih, Genghis Khan, Jalaluddin al-Rumi, Ataturk and other famous people of the era or the like.

The second room contains European personalities including the historical ones, including celebrities in art or drawing or literature and poetry, such as the world painter Leonardo da Vinci, French commander Napoleon Bonaparte and others.

The strange thing about this museum is that the hair of the statues and the beards are natural as well as the faces of modern celebrities and their hands are taken from the people themselves by doing handcuffs and legs for real characters

In this museum there are also clothes for sultans and historical leaders that the visitor can wear and take pictures of the memorial and can also work as handkerchiefs for visitors, hands and feet and keep them for a long time

It is interesting that this museum depends on the details of its characters on the fact that if the character is alive, take into account every minute detail of the person and if the person is dead and he will come out of his grave and examine all the details of it and if the details are not clear,
