All technology is concealed in dikes that surround the miniature city, as well as underground. The very well-known story of Hansje Brinker comes to life in the evening. By using a combination of video and laser projection, computer-controlled light, colored fountains and sound broadcast through headphones, the city is transformed into a grand open-air spectacle. The actual dates en start times can be found on the website.
