A look behind the scenes of the Miniature World
How nice would it be to walk hundreds of kilometres through Switzerland in one hour.
You can do that at “Smilestones”!
For both adults and children, the modern Smilestones Miniature World shows some of the most well-known landmarks in Switzerland, such as the Alpstein region, the Bernese Oberland, the Rhine Falls and many more. The modelled landscape resembles a three-dimensional hidden object with cityscapes, forests, vineyards and castles and offers a variety of little scenes and fun details to be discovered.
In addition, the numerous transport users travelling on the roads and railway tracks also provide a lot of movement. Indoors and open all year round, this is an ideal complement to a visit at the Rhine Falls.
