The Bahamas Museum of Junkanoo sits within the Nassau Cruise Port. You can pick the building out by the vibrant display of handcrafted costumes visible near its entrance, often featuring elaborate structures of feathers, beads, and crepe paper. These intricate pieces are designed to be worn during the Junkanoo parades, and some weigh over two hundred pounds, requiring months of construction for a single celebration.
