Last time, we discussed the best romantic places for dating if you are an interracial couple. Today, we keep exploring unusual and interesting places in Brooklyn that can make your date a unique and unforgettable experience.
#1. Brooklyn Superhero Supply Store
372 5th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York
If you or your significant other likes all these superhero topics, then going to the Superhero supply store is exactly what you should do. Here, you can find all the equipment for fighting crime, such as mind-readers, particle guns, bottled black holes, and antimatter. In addition to the nice heroic atmosphere, this shop is a place where student writers can publish their works. The revenue gathered from sales is used to finance the writing center. Published manuals are available here in the manuals section.
#2. Robotic Church
111 Pioneer Street, Brooklyn, New York
Before this place was a Norwegian Seaman’s Church. But now it is being slowly filled with Robot art. When activated, robots become one futuristic orchestra. Robots are situated everywhere – on the floor, on the walls, near the catwalk. They come in different shapes (mostly, humanoid) and sizes. Controlled by a computer or their own programs, robots play the music and give an incredible performance.
#3. Wyckoff Street Mosaic
108 Wyckoff Street, Brooklyn, New York
This piece of contemporary art can have a different effect on people. It consists of all kinds of things, including shells, buttons, old CDs, and cups. The neighborhood fully supported this project by bringing materials. The mosaic can seem a total mess if you look at it closely. However, when you step back, you can see faces and patterns.
#4. Atlantic Avenue Tunnel
Atlantic Avenue and Court Street, Brooklyn
Explore the tunnel built in the middle of the 19th century under Atlantic Avenue. The tunnel was forgotten in the 1850s after a corrupt deal involving the death of a British man. However, it was rediscovered in the 1980s by Bod Diamond who found the notes about the tunnel in the local library and dug the way from the manhole to the tunnel. Walking through the brick-and-mortar ancient tunnel is an experience that not many cities can offer. So why not become Indiana Jones for a while?
#5. House of Wax
443-457 Albee Square W, Brooklyn
If you are tired of normal bars, go to the House of Wax. In contrast to a normal bar, this one has a huge collection (100+) of anatomical models and wax death masks. Many of the exhibits managed to survive two world wars. You can sit and wait for your drink to go down the bar rail while watching the collection.
#6. Deno’s Wonder Wheel
3048 Jones Walk, Brooklyn
This Ferris wheel is a smart combination of a traditional wheel with a railway and Chute-the-Chutes. This magical thing appeared on Coney Island in 1920, constructed by Charles Hermann. Though its history the Wonder Wheel has been a site of numerous proposals and has won the reputation as the most romantic wheel in the world. If you want to become a part of its romantic history, take a ride there with your significant other.
#7. City Reliquary
370 Metropolitan Avenue, Brooklyn
Under a colorful and funny canopy, the museum seems hidden from the eyes of people. If you don’t know about the museum, you can discover it only by accident. It doesn’t attract that much attention when you look at it from the outside. However, what you see inside will not disappoint you. The museum has a large collection of items closely connected to the history of New York. Small objects, such as coins, trinkets, postcards, and even rat bones, tell their stories inside this strange museum.
#8. Le Boudoir
135 Atlantic Ave, Brooklyn
In 2014, the owners of Chez Moi, a restaurant located on Atlantic Avenue, were renovating their building. Suddenly they had an idea that their restaurant was situated right on top of the sealed-off and abandoned tunnel. Under the basement walls, they found a hidden chamber. The room was turned into an underground bar called Le Boudoir. To get there, you need to pass through a fake bookshelf of the restaurant. Sipping an exquisite cocktail in the interior recreating the Versailles atmosphere, you will have a truly nice date.
#9. The Smile Face Museum
228 Boerum Street, Brooklyn
A funny date idea in Brooklyn will be a visit to the Smile Museum. This yellow grin has been known to everyone since the 1960s. And in this museum, you can find all the possible objects with a smile on them – mitts, clothes, rugs, posters. And all of them together will definitely make you feel happier as well.
