INSPIRATION ATTRACTIONS This Unique Park In Brussels Lets You Explore All Of Europe In Just A Couple Of Hours Ingus Kruklitis/Shutterstock BY DIANA LOTTI/FEB. 8, 2023 1:14 PM EST Belgium is a remarkable nation that's too often an afterthought among travelers, despite its rich history, culture, architecture, and spectacular festivals. Brussels, its capital, is also known as the capital of Europe as it houses the European Parliament. Other impressive landmarks in Brussels include the Grand Place, the Galeries Royales Saint-Hubert, the Royal Palace, Mont des Arts, Notre Dame du Sablon, and the Atomium. The Atomium is particularly interesting as it is a structure meant to look like an atom. Per the Atomium's website, the structure was built in 1958 for the Brussels World's Fair and restored in 2006. It now receives hundreds of visitors yearly. Next to the Atomium is another unique landmark in Brussels known as Mini Europe. Mini Europe encompasses miniature replicas of some of the most iconic monuments, landscapes, and cities from all over the European continent, including the Eiffel Tower, the Colosseum, and the Brandenburg Gate. Not only is Mini Europe a unique park in Brussels that lets you explore all of Europe in just a couple of hours, but it is a great way to explore Europe's culture and history in a fun and entertaining way. What Mini Europe has to Offer Ingus Kruklitis/Shutterstock Mini Europe is a unique open-air park in Brussels with over 350 incredible and detailed monuments and landmarks in the European continent. All of the models at the park were reproduced at a 1/25 scale, so models like the Eiffel Tower and the Tower of Pisa are still as impressive as the originals. According to the Mini Europe site, the Eiffel Tower stands 42 feet (13 meters) tall, and Big Ben stands 13 feet (4 meters) tall. Travelers can also appreciate the attention to detail for each landmark and monument model created, such as the 6,000 figures placed one at a time in the Bull Ring in the Seville exhibition.
