Madurodam je známé nizozemské miniaturní město v Den Haagu, které představuje všechno, čím se Nizozemsko proslavilo ve světě, v poměru 1:25 na ploše 18 000 m². Je pojmenováno po George Maduro, studentovi z ostrova Curaçao, který se vyznamenal v době německé okupace Nizozemska v roce 1940 a zemřel v koncentračním táboře Dachau. Madurodam byl slavnostně otevřen 2. července 1952 a čtrnáctiletá princezna Beatrix se stala jeho první starostkou.

Miniatuurstad Madurodam werd in 1952 opgericht ter nagedachtenis aan oorlogsheld George Maduro ten behoeve van het inzamelen van geld voor goede doelen voor kinderen. Ruim 50 miljoen bezoekers hebben sinds de oprichting 'het stadje met de glimlach' bezocht en miljoenen euro's zijn aan goede doelen geschonken.
