Madame tussaud's museum of wax arts
London's number one attraction, Madame Tussaud's, has been visited by over 200 million visitors since it began 200 years ago. Currently, over 2.5 million people a year visit Madame Tussaud's, mingling with celebrities of all types, from sports heroes like Muhammad Ali to Hollywod celebrities like Marilyn Monroe to models like Naomi Campbell and politicians like Bill Clinton.
It takes six months, hundreds of precise measurements, 2,400 lbs of wax and $45,000 to make each of Madame Tussaud's wax portraits.
