One Of The World’s Quirkiest Museums Is Right Here In Florida And You’ll Want To Visit

Florida has an impressive number of quirky roadside attractions. It stands to reason, then, that its museums would be just as wonderfully bizarre. In fact, if you head to Ocala, you can observe the largest collection of pink flamingos in the entire world. You won’t find any live animals here, but instead all sorts of items shaped like the quirky pink birds.

Take a look:

The Official Florida Flamingo Museum is located at 4901 E Silver Springs Blvd STE 701 Ocala, FL 34470.

The museum was started by Cindy Dunlow, who set the Guinness World Record for the largest pink flamingo-themed collection.
