Metropolitan Police Department Museum

The absence of anything relating to modern crime-fighting might alarm more than reassure visitors, and the most exciting-looking exhibit is an arcade-style gaming machine that, disappointingly, turns out to be a safe-driving simulator. Still, if you’ve been dragging your kids around designer boutiques all day, you might redeem yourself here: diminutive visitors can dress as mini officers, sit on a Kawasaki police motorcycle with flashing lights, peer into a helicopter and meet force mascot Pipo-kun.
