  • Make sure you have at least 2 hours for this place. Located at the back of a giant shopping mall away from the center, Mini World Lyon is lots of fun when you get there. Amazingly detailed dioramas...

  • I'm absolutely obsessed with this place! In terms of square meters, it's not really that big. However, because the displays are made of miniatures, there's so much to see. I thought I would maybe spend 30-45 minutes here, but before I knew it, two hours had passed by. There are so many interesting and silly details to explore in the displays, such as someone hanging on for dear life off a derailed roller coaster cart and a murder scene in an apartment building. The mini Lyon feature is amazing. It has all the important Lyon landmarks, although some stuff isn't geographically correct, but who cares when it's all there and accurately depicted. If you're a local, the annual pass is totally worth it because it's just a hair over two times the cost of one adult admission. This is a family-friendly place, but adults will enjoy it as much as the kids will.
  • Beautiful day out. You would love this if you loved netherworld miniature world. And in short this is great for all ages. I loved the level of attention to details they gave in creating in this.
  • Great place to visit for kids and adults alike. You can spend hours looking for all the funny little things hidden all over the place, all the pop culture references, plus whatever is the current theme (Jurassic World right now so dinosaurs are sprinkled across all the scenes). And kudos if you manage to find all the Waldo's.
  • Great place to go with the kids, try to avoid the crowds for the best experience
  • Wonderful place, very detailed and realistic "worlds" are represented. The night and day perpetuum is well done, too. The kids also liked the "shows" (music, projections on the walls). Very small fixes are needed here and there.
