The device Cheap Nike Air Max Thea , which has become a favorite of tourists and outdoor sports enthusiastic worldwide, has become a safety concern to visitors and artworks for many museums.
A staff member of Nanjing Museum said they have stopped visitors from using selfie sticks inside the museum.

Although the popular sticks are still allowed in most museums Cheap Nike Air Max 2017 , more are taking actions accordingly.
Several museums in Wuhan, capital of central China's Hubei province, have started to require visitors to check-in their sticks before entering. Those who ignore the message will be stopped during security check.

The Smithsonian museums in Washington banned selfie sticks last week. Cameras and pictures are still allowed, but selfie sticks, tripods and monopods are not.
