This is a park in Japan that is filled with amazing models of famous structures and landmarks from around the world. The models are 1/25th scale, extremely detailed, and are outdoors! The models are populated by thousands of scale figures, and no two are alike. The name of the park is Tobu World Square.

A working model of the Japanese "bullet train" runs through part of it.
These are amazing-thanks for the refresh. I think Madurodam is also in that scale.
