"Nice place to visit if in Canberra, site is open paths are wide and spacious, few interactive displays with sounds and moving trains, there is a train that does loop of site which is nice ride around. As this was winter some of the park was closed off for renovations. Cafe on site. Tourist gift shop also available. Would be a place to take your kids if you had a free day. Also has a picnic and garden area available."
"This was a fantastic place to have a look at all the various models that are in here. There are so many different types of mini structures that are so cool to look at. Our personal favourite was the international place as there were so many infamous structures that looked so cool with this interpretation. The fact sheets about the facts of the country was really cool. A must come to if you're coming to Canberra!"
"We visited this place for the first time this Easter holidays and I must say it’s a fantastic place . Specially for the kids as they loved how the miniature figures and different symbolic monuments of different nations have been built . Amazing piece of work. A lot of effort has gone into each and every monument over the years. Ticket prices are reasonable . If you are taking your grand parents make sure to ask for the senior tickets as they are cheaper . They had a train ride which is quite fun for the kids."
"We went on a 20° sunny day and it was beautiful! More than expected, amazing staff and I have to say it was quite the experience. Knowing that all the models were made on site blows my mind and I absolutely loved the way everything was set up. I will definitely be re visiting because I didn’t know there was a train ride that does a lap of the Gardens! My highest recommendation for anyone and any age!"
"Amazed by the different types architecture all over the world. A little bit disappointed that i did not see China there. The flower and trees feel a bit lack of maintenance maybe due to the covid. The train is fun but maybe not really for adults. I would recommended the place for people have little kids. Will not really for repeat visiting if not live locally here. But it is fun for at least ones. The average cost is $21pp. We spend a bit over 1 hour here."
