While you probably wouldn’t guess that the world’s largest public display of yo-yos, yo-yo memorabilia, and related contest awards is tucked away in Chico, you can find the National Yo-Yo Museum hidden in plain sight at the back of retail shop Bird in Hand. The museum is open to the public, is always a hit with kids, and makes for a perfect selfie opportunity.
