Here's a nice general view of the place... I think it's interesting that it was built in a sort of shallow bowl and then surrounded by trees. It blocks out the surrounding world in much the same way the berm does at Disneyland. My guess is that there are tall buildings all around it these days.
Check out this amazing miniature port, with berths for ships and boats of all kinds. There are cranes for loading cargo, and tiny trucks and vehicles, and even teeny-tiny people. One of the first photos I ever saw of Madurodam was in LIFE magazine (I think), and it had a man guiding a ship through the water very much like the soggy fellow in this photo. When no one is around he pretends he is the Green Gargantua.
More impressive details...
I'd like to see this place when it's been snowing!
