80-year-old's farm museum idea a hit among tourists

A museum that displays over 40 farm tools, some of which are no longer in use, attracted quite a few unlikely visitors when it opened its doors in Sihui, Guangdong province, last Thursday.

The museum is the brainchild of an 80-year-old farmer named Tan Xiangli. All the tools displayed are part of Tan's own personal collection.
