Ilsan Lake Park Toilet Museum
Are you having a crappy day? Or are you looking for something crappy to do? Well, the perfect remedy for you is to head to Ilsan Lake Park and enjoy the Toilet Culture Exhibition Hall---aka "The Toilet Museum".
The Toilet Museum? What!?
Yep. Korea has done it again. Korea does not hold back when promoting things that are generally not promoted in western cultures. In this case, they have built a small museum which is very informative about everything regarding toilets.
