A place filled with memories
Avanos, a town in Turkey, is historically known for its production of pottery. However, it has become famous in recent years for a special reason—The Hair Museum of Avanos. Set up in 1979 by a local potter named Galip, this museum is located under his pottery shop, Chez Galip.
It began when a female friend of Galip was leaving to return to her home country. This saddened him so deeply that the woman cut off a piece of her own hair for him to keep as a memento. Many women who have visited his shop and heard the story have since given him some of their hair along with their names and addresses. Eventually, the museum became filled with locks of hair donated by female visitors from around the world.
Over the years, Galip has collected over 16,000 samples of hair. The walls, ceiling, and all other surfaces, except for the floor, are covered with locks of hair from different women. The Hair Museum of Avanos entered the Guinness World Records in 1998. The museum’s record seems secure, as women continue to donate their hair to this one-of-a-kind museum.

一個回憶滿載的地方
阿瓦諾斯是土耳其的一個小鎮,歷史上以生產陶器而聞名。不過,近年來它卻因一個特別的原因而出名 ── 阿瓦諾斯頭髮博物館。博物館由當地陶藝家加利普(Galip)於 1979 年創建,其位於他的陶藝店 Chez Galip 的下方。
故事始於加利普的一位女性朋友準備返回家鄉。這讓他非常悲傷,因此那位女子剪下了自己的一束頭髮給他當紀念。此後,許多去過他的商店並聽到這則故事的女性把自己的一些頭髮附上名字和地址送給了他。最終,博物館裡充滿了許多束來自世界各地的女性遊客所捐贈的頭髮。
多年來,加利普收集了超過一萬六千個頭髮樣本。牆壁、天花板和除地板以外的所有其他表面都覆蓋著不同女人的頭髮。阿瓦諾斯頭髮博物館於 1998 年被收錄在《金氏世界紀錄大全》中。博物館的紀錄似乎很穩固,因為不斷有女性向這座獨特的博物館捐贈頭髮。
