Developers plan to open an International Spy Museum in Washington. Espionage, where fantasy overlaps with fact, is reckoned a crowd-puller by Malrite Company, which plans to open the museum early next year.
First World War spy Mata Hari will feature, as will the Enigma code-breaking machine of the Second World War,secret cameras used by the Soviet KGB and techniques of America's Central Intelligence Agency.
In a building just one block from FBI headquarters, the new museum will tempt tourists away from the White House, the Mall and Capitol Hill, Malrite says.
