Madurodam opened in 1952, and it carries two jobs at once: a miniature version of the country, and a war memorial. Arriving is the straightforward part of the day, since the tram stop and the bus stop are both a short walk from the entrance, although the distance quoted for the tram depends on whether you are getting off or boarding. Buying the tickets is where to slow down. Admission is tied to a day rather than to a person, and once bought, tickets cannot be exchanged or returned beyond the statutory return period the law gives you, so pick a date you are confident about before you pay for four of them.

OUR FAMILY ASSESSMENT

Why kids will love it
In a miniature park the usual proportions turn over. A child who spends every day looking up at buildings spends an afternoon looking down on them instead, and the scale does the explaining that a label never manages. When the looking runs out, there is more than one playground, with a cafe sitting between them, so the adults can keep a table while the children keep going.
