Potatoes also have a museum. China's first and only "Potato Museum"was completed in Yanqing County, Beijing. The history, current condition, development, promotion and application of potatoes in China are shown at the exhibition hall which covers an area of 3,000 square meters through precious photos and plenty of objects.
There are mini potatoes as small as soybeans, big potatoes as big as pillows, colored potatoes in red, purple and black, Shepody potatoes suitable for cooking French fries, Atlantic potatoes for cooking potato chips, and potatoes from Holland suitable for cooking dishes. At the potato museum, the most eye-catching one is the real exhibits. Visitors marvel at the dishes cooked using potatoes and the hundreds of new potato types that are displayed in the cupboards.
