Miniature City of Madurodam

The cold weather is still around. In fact it will drop to -16 Deg. C at night in two days time. That will be really cold. Most of the canals and lakes are already fully frozen with many skaters relishing the situation.

Some places especially those nearby to buildings or a bit secluded to the extreme weather only got thin ice developing at the top. And these are quite dangerous. The kids were wary of this and or so just tip-toe on the ice in front of Madurodam where we brought them today.

The last time we brought the kids here was when they were still small some 8 years ago. We always try to defer a visit to this place until we got a visitor coming over here.

Madurodam is well known to whoever are aware of what Holland or The Netherlands got to offer for tourists. In fact a visit to this place, which contains miniature models at 1:25 scale, will show you every single important buildings, structures, countrysides and places that could be found in this country. So it is a worthwhile place to visit. The details put into every single items are incredibly good and sometimes you really feel like a giant when standing overlooking all these models.
