Italia in Miniatura is a theme park located in Viserba di Rimini, offering a unique experience through the meticulous reproduction of Italy's most famous monuments. This park, suitable for all ages, is particularly suitable for families and school groups interested in discovering the architectural and historical wonders of Italy in a smaller format. Also inside is a section dedicated to Europe, educational trails and attractions that allow for immersive experiences.
Attractions
The main part of the park is devoted to
300 miniatures of major Italian monuments, from the Alps to Sicily. The walk then continues into
Little Europe, an area that brings together some 30 of the Old World's most famous monuments. There are, then, some areas, which allow for an immersive experience, such as
Venice, where you navigate the Grand Canal aboard a gondola to St. Mark's Square in a 1:5 scale reconstructed city.
Italy Square, on the other hand, is a square animated by talking puppets that face the windows when children ring the bells, as well as being the scene of the shows and events that enliven the park in summer.
Esperimenta is the interactive science pavilion where young children can play with science. There are many opportunities to have fun inside the park, from
Cinemagia7D to
Castel Sismondo with its water games, from the
Driving School track to the
AreAvventura with its trails suspended among the trees.
Educational activities
The park lends itself to educational visits for schools of all levels, thanks to the presence of dedicated facilities and proposals. The
Palace of Knowledge welcomes young guests into themed classrooms from which they set out to explore the park. Among the proposals fielded by the park's Science Education Department are
Esperimenta, the park's science pavilion, the
Interactive Driving School, and
Pappamondo, the area dedicated to the world of parrots.
Where to eat
There are several eateries within the park:
Osteria Italia offers pasta dishes, pizza, piadinas, and some dishes for celiacs, while
Self Service San Marco offers meat and fish dishes. On the other hand, snacks, sandwiches, ice cream, and hot-dogs can be referred to the
Monterosa Bar, the
San Marco Kiosk, and the
Canoe Kiosk.
