Fodor's Expert Review Model Village

Built in 1937, this knee-high model of Bourton-on-the-Water took five years to complete. It is the only model village to have been given special historical status by English Heritage. As you walk down its tiny lanes, you'll see how little has changed over the past decades. The small exhibition at Miniature World shows miniature scenes and rooms; some you can make come to life. Particularly entertaining is the model village within the model village, which, much like an infinity mirror, is perpetuated to an increasingly smaller scale.
