WOW! What a find!
This place should be world famous! There is a green bus on the side of the road in Papatowai in The Catlins and in it is the most amazing collection of recycled junk mechanical art contraptions ever! It is a wonderland of bizzare and unique creations.
There are handmade automata and curios that are both artistic and very very funny. Be sure to go up the back into the garden/gallery/theatre where the artist keeps all the best stuff IT IS AMAZING!!

Great little museum, nice and quiet and not hordes of kids milling around.
Better than Te Papa. Well different anyway. Nicer atmosphere and not so overwhelming.

Te Papa is huge and really busy.
It is good but I prefer the little museum down the road (museum of city and sea).
