Ukraine’s largest model railway at 1:87 scale – a journey through a miniature country where trains and cars move and day even turns into night. Just let your eyes wander: 87 square meters of layout, more than 1400 “residents” and 137 authentically recreated buildings from all over the country. A place where kids explore the world and adults reminisce and dream.

Why visit

  • More than 1400 figures live on the 87-square-meter layout, and real trains run through it.

  • More than 6000 LEDs create the effect of day turning into night right above the miniature country.
  • Children aged 10 and over can visit the museum on their own, without parents or other adults.
  • Little ones under 4 get in free – the museum is great for a family outing in any weather.
  • The layout is full of lively details: a windmill turns, trains run, and real water flows in the rivers.

Miniland.UA has been open since November 2022 at the Blockbuster mall and recreates the authentic character of modern Ukraine at 1:87 scale. The 87 m² layout holds 137 buildings and more than 1400 figures – from station workers to tourists and locals – as well as pets and wild animals. The layout’s main feature is movement: trains run on 510 meters of track, cars drive along 95 meters of roads, a windmill turns, and day changes to night thanks to more than 6000 LEDs. Real water even flows in the layout’s rivers. The recreated sights include real landmarks from all over Ukraine: the railway station in Ivano-Frankivsk, old castles and churches, the canyon in Buky and Europe’s longest wooden narrow-gauge railway bridge. Tours about the art of miniatures are held for adults and children.
