You ever travel and get to the point that you've seen enough art museums, and they're just not that different?

If all you do is visit art museums, then sure. While I lived in Thailand I saw:

-- The British cemetery for the POWs that worked on the death railway (The Bridge on the River Kwai) -- and saw that many multiples of Thais died for every western soldier who died -- The awesome canal boats, that stop to drop people off and pick people up in under 20 seconds. -- Malls with endless 5 foot and 10 foot shops -- MBK mall has 3,000 shops in it! -- More more more malls: MBK is across from Siam, which is next to Central World, which is across the street from Gaysorn, which is next to The Market, which is a block away from Platinum, and it goes on and on. -- Thailand's air and space museum, where they proudly display the remains of a U.S. plane they shot down in WWII, along with a bunch of their own aircraft. -- Amazing beaches -- of course. -- The Thailand Museum of Science and Industry, which was awesome. -- Street food, so much street food. -- Shops selling nothing but electric fans, shops selling ancient typewriters, shops selling vintage cameras, and oh so much more.

And so much more, of course. Every day was an adventure. I was there two years and I miss it.
