Madurodam, The Hague

#mytraveldiary Madurodam is a miniature park, but don’t let the size fool you—it’s packed with charm. Famous Dutch landmarks, cities, and cultural icons are recreated here in perfect 1:25 scale. I felt like a giant walking among tulip fields, windmills, Schiphol Airport, and even miniature trains and boats that actually move. The detail is astonishing, and the stories behind each model make it educational too. Kids were fascinated, but I found myself equally captivated, spotting details I’d missed on real-life visits. It’s whimsical, interactive, and uniquely Dutch. A delightful way to see the whole country in an afternoon. #mytraveldiary
