Wroclaw

Kolejkowo

Located on the first floor (that's the second floor for you Americans) of Sky Tower, this is the largest model train exhibit in PL, covering more than 335 square metres. The highly detailed 1:25 scale models are a clear labour of love for the artists that create them and include thousands of original hand-sculpted figures of people and animals, in highly creative and curious scenarios - nuns on bikes, farmers unloading hogs off a truck, sex workers waiting for clients, sunbathers, circus performers, skiers, hikers, and more.
 

Perhaps best of all, the exhibit incorporates easily recognisable landmarks from around Wrocław and Lower Silesia, including the townhouses of Wrocław's market square, the ul. Bogusławskiego train tressle, the PZU neon side on Plac Kościuszki (it works!), the old Świebodzki train station, plus Karpacz and the Śnieżka Weather Observatory. It's not just a great view, this exhibit is multi-sensory with fully illuminated displays, a day/night cycle (during which a short film is projected), a storm with real rain, city sounds, moving cars and more dynamic action activated by interactive buttons. Quite impressive in its detail and a joy for young kids, the amount of original work that has gone into this family attraction justifies its somewhat steep admission price.
