Miniatur Wunderland Airport: An AvGeek Must See
ฝัง

- In this video, we’ll explore a bit of Miniatur Wunderland, the world’s largest model railway. We’ll spend most of the time watching the action at Miniatur Wunderland Airport, an unbelievable scale model of Hamburg’s Airport. Miniatur Wunderland Airport includes all of the action of the real thing, just on a smaller scale.
Miniatur Wunderland Airport took 150,000 hours of work to build. Miniatur Wunderland Airport has 40,000 LED bulbs, 62 miles of wiring, 50,000 lines of code. The cost to build Miniatur Wunderland Airport? Four million Euros. While Miniatur Wunderland Airport was not quite as expensive as the real Hamburg Airport, this is one serious exhibit!
Miniatur Wunderland Airport hosts around 250 takeoffs and landings each day. There are 787’s, A330’s, 777’s, 747’s, even Concorde! There are a host of support vehicles at Miniatur Wunderland Airport. Everything from a Miniatur Wunderland Airport fire department to catering trucks and super tugs, Miniatur Wunderland Airport has it all. Perhaps most striking is just how similar it is to the real thing!
Tickets for adults to enter Miniatur Wunderland are about 15 Euros, kids get in for half of that price. You can book your ticket online, which might help you skip the lines, which can get pretty long at certain times of the year. Oh, and by the way, this is NOT a sponsored video. I paid for my ticket.

Jeb, our foreign exchange student's family took us to see this treasure! The details are mind blowing! I stood for hours watching the airport and all the fantastic exhibits of the MiniatureWorld. I was completely mesmerized! My German family (Gerold, Kristin, and Lennard) are the best gifts in my life! I am so thrilled you showcased this amazing place. We also toured the Airbus facility... as an aviation geek, I could hardly stop smiling!
The funny car is an elefant from a famous German TV Show for kids🇩🇪
Kaff Produktions and it is a real vacuum cleaner, the H0 cars often have problems with dust.
Not only an avgeek’s paradise, but a train geek’s too!
Considering i am both. I should definetly visit.
Not only for geeks of any Kind but for people in general. There is so much detail to the animations, cars, figures and buildungs. Also the funny szenes. To truly discover every detail Will take more time then just 1 or 2 days!

Three of my favourite things
Miniatur Wunderland has the only airport where Ryanair can butter
*minture wonderland* spell it correctly first
@@yusufj4020 It's Miniatur Wunderland. It's German for Miniature Wonderland. So you actually spelled it wrong in English too :/
He's trying to defend ryanair! Seize him! Also, how do you try correcting somebody without using your brain? Like, "minture wonderland" What the Hellen Kellen. Also, danil is my handy man now.
@@campbellaviation7357 xD
danil karmadonov i did spell it right in english but im not german and also the youtuber put miniatur wunderland because thats how the germans say it but yes i got in english correctly
That miniature airport is seriously cool, I could watch it for hours and not be bored 😍
The millennium falcon can be seen flying at the airport too!
I just came back from my trip from Hamburg and the Miniatur Wunderland was absolutely mindblowing :)
Jeb isn’t wrong in the slightest. On my trip to Germany, we visited the Miniatur in Hamburg and it was incredible! Especially the mini airport!
The blue elephant is a vacuum cleaner, cause dust is death to the little cars
So it actually does serve the very same function as Nunu in Teletubbies! haha! That's hilarious and fantastic! I love it. I had taken a guess that it might have been serving a purpose like that, or, perhaps as a vehicle that can count and track the amount of visitors around each portion of the exhibits.
Its actually a waste cleaner because when you go to the toilet at the airplane the urine goes to pipes under the plane untill it finds containers where its stored untill the little elephant comes and cleans it up for the next flight
The blue car is an Kids TV Character in Germany.

Actually it serves as a vacuum to keep the dust of the road
@M Brieger No it isnt if dust was on the road how was the plane able to move dumb
@@alviyunitasari3737 It is made for cleaning. The cars are steered by small electro lines,which dont work if dust is blocking it.

This is a MUST to go to if you're lucky enough to visit Hamburg, Germany (a great place to visit anyway...), also the Airbus plant, of course. I'm way more into aviation than a model trains guy, but the world they've created (apart from "just" the Airport) is absolutely mindblowing. Attention and love to detail is beyond everything you'd dream of - let alone of what you would expect, even if you knew all the advertising. Your jaws will drop once you enter MiWuLa. It is vast and astonishing, the admission of 15 Euros is nothing short of a bargain for all the hours of awe. Adult or minor, you will never forget the experience. Unique in the world. One day they'll be able to reduce the size of the nosewheels and have working flaps, slats and spoilers on their planes. Just imagine rejected takeoffs and landings with spoilers deplpoyed. But those things are to be neglected for the time being as it is already amazing just the way it is and it IS a gift to the world. @MiWuLa.tv
Edit: typo
Unable to believe that it is a museum or real world . Unbelievable Creation.
Salute for such creation idea .
This is on my bucket list since I was 5
09rbgaming 775, me too, but now I’m 38.
Jeez
Dot Trail, you’re correct, dude. 🤪
Bwah! Jeb! I saw a Concorde! I saw a Concorde!(jumps up and down, clapping hands and squealing like a little girl) I could sit here for hours and never get bored! My father's side of the family is from Hamburg. Must put this on my bucket list. Oh, Jeb, if you could see my face right now, I have the biggest, most childlike smile!
Good news - I am almost finished with my cardio rehab. My doctors are saying perhaps I will be allowed to take to the skies again in March. They like my positive attitude, and that is has been a help. Keep fingers crossed! Have a wonderful Christmas!☺☺🌲🌲💖
I’ve been there. It’s absolutely amazing
Mind blown and officially on the Bucket List!!!
I dreamt of something like this when I was a teen, in the ‘80s, more so on the aviation part. So happy to see a similar mind acted on it!!
That airport is so cool and realistic, it’s impressive
You just put Hamburg on my list of potential European destinations! This place looks AWESOME! Thanks for posting!
Jeb, 15 euros well spent, this display is nothing short of amazing!!!!! Can’t wait to visit and catch the Concord take off
How did I not know this exists??? I used to live near HH and still visit every year!! It's on my list for 2020!!!
All I can say is "WOW" ABSOLUTELY amazing a definite bucket list item..
"The world's biggest little airport"
Me : confused screaming
Already scratch that off bucket list. Seen it 10yrs ago. It just you blow away. The airport still being built at time.
Now the airport works and they have added Italy and Venice (built separately).
I have never seen anything like this before. Amazing.
We allowed 2 hours when we visited a few years ago and it wasn’t enough! What a place!
I agree - If you are in Hamburg you should go to the Miniatur Wunderland at the Hafenstadt in Hamburg. As you said you can loose hours there watching to all the details...
Thank you, Jeb, for sharing your video with us.
That brings out the little boy in all of us.
The level of detail is really amazing! I love how they have the flying eye hospital there.
I life near Hamburg at the coast of the sea and it's always awesome to be in Hamburg or visit the Miniature Wonderland
Ive always wanted to visit this place since it opened
The blue thing cleans the roads from dust
Absolutely amazing !
Greetings from Boston...unbelievable..appears so real!!!
this is the nicest thing that a human hand ever built ...
So awesome! Thanks for sharing. I would sit and watch that for days! Lol
Very cool Jeb 😀👍🏻. On on my bucket list .
If anything, you undersold how cool Miniatur Wunderland is. Awesome
Would love that in my room
Same!
I will visit this museum the next time I am in Hamburg! I have sat in a Concorde at the museum in Barbados. The leather seats still smelled new.
Such a cool place. In the old docks of Hamburg! Nice Video!
I went here in 2016... And I can't wait to go back one day :)
This is literally the cutest and most funny thing ever. It looks so cool
Ryanair to use these airports across their service routes to cut down costs.
Hamburg Germany is definitely moved up notches on my bucket list after this video. I’ve always wanted to go the Steinway piano factory in Hamburg but now I’ve found out about this museum.
And visit Planten un Blomen, a park with botanical gardens. In the warmer season there are also water light organ concerts.
I remember going there a couple of times as a kid. Even when I go back there now I still have a lot of fun there, really a nice activity to do with the family and a MUST DO when you visit Hamburg.
Must be amazing to see! Never seen this on the channel!
being a model railroader and interested in planes, buses and trains, this is definitely a must see.. thank you thank you
I live in Hamburg and I don't visit the MiWuLa, short for Miniatur WunderLand (who would have thought), very often but it still amazes me every time, again and again. Even though I know it fairly well, I somehow still manage to get lost there. I'm very excited to see the new districts.
Ps: thank you for your videos, I really enjoy watching them and I hope you had a good time in good ol' Hamburg
I went there in July. Absolutely recommended.
Wow! You must be really lucky and grateful!
I will be visiting Hamburg in July. I cannot wait to get a preview of Miniatur Wunderland Airport on your channel :)
What an incredible experience! Thanks for sharing, Jeb!
I visited minature Wonderland In 2016 it was an awesome experience we even got a behind the seances scenes tour and we saw the mechanism that made the planes take off and land.
Wow!! That is so cool! Ugh, I’d love to visit some day!
Thank you for that treat!
Oh so very cool it’s all so real looking it’s stunning thanks for sharing
Yup its awesome, i love that place. Glad you could visit!
Oh man! I have planned a trip to miniatur wunderland summer of 2020. So cool that you found it. 😃👍
The blue elephant vehicle has a small vacuum Cleaner inside to clean the roads of dust. They just could have build it to look like a normal street cleaning vehicle but that's the Miniatur Wunderland humour. You'll find many funny things and jokes around the layout if you pay attention to all the details.. 👌
I’m fortunate to have traveled to Hamburg twice on a Princess Cruise ship. The first time we visited another part of the City - but upon reboarding the ship, we heard the raves from other passengers about Miniature Wonderland. The next time we visited Hamburg we walked from the dock over to this amazing place. IMHO this is a must-do in Hamburg!!!
If I ever go back - I guess we’ll visit the Airbus factory if possible. Thanks for the idea.
Hamburg is also: Cozy, very nice and also very intresting :) i was there 2016 with my dad! i totally recommend u Hamburg and Wunderland!
Awesome! I would spend hours there!!
Really cool. Didn’t even know this place existed. It is definitely on my list now!
I love both planes and trains equally and had so much fun here. Cool to see new planes landing like the Beluga that I didn't see in 2016.
Beautiful Jeb. Thanks for sharing.
Best thing in my city!
I'm in Awe Jeb!! Seeing you as " a kid in a candy store" and Christmas rolled all in one! Hamburg will be my first stop on my next Europe trip!
One of the most fascinating thing ever
Looks amazing, thanks for sharing Jeb.
stay long enough and see an emergency landing from a shuttle
or the Millenium Falcon...
@@CherryGS or a Bummel, a mixture of a Biene (bee) and a Hummel (bumble bee), which is related to Hamburg. Btw., the Millennium Falcon is even anounced as YT-1300 coming either from Death Star or from Hoth.
@@Astrofrank i know :-) and i'm looking forward to our next visit, hopefully in the oktober holidays.
@@CherryGS Hopefully the Corona crisis is not relevant anymore at that time. I want to visit the MiWuLa, too, as the five hours in 2013 were not enough.
I go there once or twice year it’s amazing
i've seen them the first time in a documentary back in 2009, amazing people who made that. Its also one of the most visited landmarks in germany. Great Vid!
It is on my bucket list. I have to see it.
That is AMAZING Jeb, you rock!!
I put that on my list as i visit Germany again...Amazing... i am fan of airports and planes...so this is a must watch for me.. thanks for the awesome video..loved it
Simply fantastic and amazing ...! Looking forward for more of these interesting videos on TH-cam again soon and thanks so much for this beautiful video. Regards.
I am so sad I’m in HKG airport and my flight boards in 2 hours so I won’t get to see the premier
Edit: in Kolkata finally watching this
4:31 that's a vacuum cleaner 😄
so awesome !!!! need to go I would be their for days !!!
Went here in September of this year and think we were inside for almost 5 hours, it was amazing! If anyone goes then I highly recommend you do the backstage tours!
Well done jeb!
Very cool. Thanks for sharing
Wow Jeb, another out of the park video. This has to be one cool place to visit. The attention to detail is awesome. You have trains and planes and your brother automobiles.
The Miniatur Wunderland has not only trains and planes, but also ships (which are not computer controlled) and cars. Many fire engines are made by Gerrit Braun, one of the founders.
What a work of art ,, absolutely fantastic brilliant cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧
Looks amazing. I live in LA and I love visiting San Diego miniature museum but I’ve added this to my list
Very Nice! Das Hamburg Miniatur wunderland!

That is really amazing.
The planes ✈️ even sound real
That place truly makes me feel like I'm 6 again, awesome vid!
I have been there several times! Great place! Regards from EDDF 😉
