Mini-Europe
Mini-Europe Review
In a 5-acre park next to the Atomium stands an impressive collection of 1:25 scale models of more than 300 famous buildings and sights from the 25 EU countries, including a chiming Big Ben and a steaming Vesuvius. The "Spirit of Europe" exhibit celebrates the European experiment with games and displays on themes such as diversity. From mid-July through mid-August, the park illuminates the models until 11 pm on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
