This puzzle is part 20 of Gladys' journey across the globe. Each part can be solved independently. Nevertheless, if you are new to the series, feel free to start at the beginning: Introducing Gladys.
Dear Puzzling,
My passport keeps filling up with new stamps. Hopefully I have enough pages left to finish the trip. Today I visited a museum detailing the history of an industry which has been especially important in this part of the world. I hope to write to you again soon.
The word borders in the crossword form a maze. Remember, every square is reachable from the start!
Wish you were here!
Love, Gladys.

All correct, nice job! Re: reverse order in 3a - I thought it was ok to change the order of the terms in formulations like "A <next to> B" as long as the indicator doesn't determine a specific order (before/after, over/under etc)?

@jafe I don't think I've ever seen it used in a clue before this -- I think general convention is that concatenation indicators are always left-to-right unless otherwise specified? But I could be wrong, and it could just be an uncommon thing.

Could you double-check 15-Across? I think I have an answer to it, but if it's right there must be something wrong with the wordplay...

@Deusovi, Hmm, I suppose you're referring to the first word of the clue? Rechecked the dictionary and the meaning is listed, but it does say "often with 'up' or 'over'". Does that mean that it's not really usable as a synonym on its own?

Nope, I just got the actual answer, and it's fine! Ignore my preceding comment.

@Deusovi 5th column, 2nd row should be a black square.

Yup, realized it shortly after my comment! (Was wondering why I was having so much trouble with that area...)
