Ripley's Believe it or Not Museum Amsterdam Highlights

Shrunken Heads

As one of the most recognisable displays at the museum, this Ripley's collection of shrunken heads numbers over 100. Genuine shrunken heads, known as tsantsa, were priceless markers of valour or success for tribal warriors. In 1923, a dealer in Panama City sold a shrunken head to young explorer Robert Ripley.

Vortex Tunnel

The Space Tunnel at Ripley's Amsterdam is a pitch-black, trippy tunnel that creates the impression that you are whirling through a black hole. Your senses will be put to the test in this revolving vortex tunnel. This makes you want to grab onto the walls as you pass through a corridor.

Micro Miniatures

William Wigan, from England, is one of the finest micro-miniature sculptors in the entire globe. His masterpieces are the size of an eyelash; they are so little that they may fit in a needle eye or in the head of a pin.

Ripley’s Warehouse

In addition to the exhibitions, Ripley's has a warehouse of its own. It has a tiny theatre where you may watch suitably bizarre videos. It contains a scream chamber that can make even the coolest kid scream, as well as an illusion photo booth where you can have your picture taken and altered.

The Jungle Room

In their "Jungle Room," Ripley's Believe it or Not! presents a fantastic exhibit. One can explore the rainforest to find authentic tribal relics, a real cave bear skeleton, the Padaung "long-necked women," and, of course, Ripley's famous collection of shrunken heads!

Optical Illusions and Games

The museum features a wide range of interactive exhibits that are intended to stimulate young minds. Optical illusions are common including ones that spring out at you to frighten you, and enormous games like wall puzzles, shooting ranges, etc., are all part of the Ripley’s.
