Nobel laureate Orhan Pamuk built this museum to accompany his novel of the same name — and it's unlike any museum you've visited. Each vitrine represents a chapter of the book, filled with the everyday objects of 1970s Istanbul: cigarette butts, butterfly hairclips, salt shakers. You don't need to have read the novel; the museum is a love letter to the city's vanishing domestic life.
