It's not identical, but this reminded me of a little place called Gulliver's Gate, where you walk around (not on or through) 1:87 scales of many of the world's landmarks. It opened just a few months ago, and the model makers continue to work on new stuff, but it's absolutely breathtaking. For those who love small handwork, you'll be spending hours here. You do end up feeling a bit like Gulliver.

I just hope they make a model through which we could walk, similar to the carpet here, just with 3D structures like the rest of the exhibit.
