🚞 I was able to visit Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg, Germany and I traveled through 8 different miniature countries in one day!
The scale and attention to detail were truly remarkable. Everywhere you look was full of surprises and the entire attraction was interactive. Two of my favorite interactive buttons were “Surviving the 9-5” (shown in the video) and the gondolas moving up and down in Venice, Italy.
Due to the travel restrictions around the world, this was the next best thing. I can highly recommend visiting Miniatur Wunderland once it is safe to travel again! Here are some interesting stats from the different cities and countries.
