Mini-Europe/Мини-Европа

There is a park in Brussels named "Mini-Europe." It is a place where everyone can quickly get an impression about all the countries of European Union by looking at the miniature places of interest and reading (and listening) some information on what the country is famous for. It is a place where lots of schoolkids learn about the values of the EU from young age. And it's a cool playground too!

В Брюсселе есть парк, который называется "Мини-Европа". Здесь каждый может кратенько ознакомиться с достопримечательностями и особенностями каждой из стран Европейского Союза. К тому же здесь в миниатюре запечатлены достопримечательности каждой из стран. Дети здесь получают представление с малых лет об основных ценностях ЕС. Ну и тут есть с чем поиграть.

Many things on display here move around, boats go back and forth, there are many small fountains and other things for kids to play with. So the park is a popular family place.

Практически в каждой статической модели страны есть движущиеся части. Лодки плавают, фонтаны бьют ключом, поезда катаются туда-сюда, в общем это место где всей семье не будет скучно.



A recommended place.

Парк рекомендован к посещению.
