Fascinating to think of the vision and technology that went into making this work.

Amazing video. I can't imagine the how long it took to make it work. How are they monetizing it?

Tourist attraction. Tickets, merchandise, food and drink vendors, etc.

This brought to mind a city we visited back in the '80's, http://www.madurodam.nl/en/, . It had a port complete with a ship that would "catch fire", and be extinguished by fire fighting boats.

Amazing. Having spent time in that country I learned that the Germans are serious about their playware. The Nuremburg toy festival is supposed to be the best in the world.
