Experience the Dutch winter
Welcome to the Netherlands’ most charming little winter wonderland. The park sparkles from head to toe with tens of thousands of lights, cozy fire pits, and snow-covered towns. And look over there — our tiny Madurodam residents are busy shopping at one of the miniature Christmas markets. How many mini Christmas trees can you spot? 🎄
The snow must go on!
This winter outing doesn't just take place indoor: you can also enjoy yourself outside to the fullest. Wrap your scarf tightly and put on your gloves: prepare yourself for exciting outdoor adventures. Slide down the slides, jump over frozen streams in Rivierenland. Just like Hansje Brinker, stick your finger in the dike and save the Netherlands from an icy flood. Check right away how much cheese you weigh. Bet you can't lift three cheeses?
