About Mini Town in Durban
Explore Durban's Tiny Treasures at Mini Town. Nestled along Durban's vibrant Golden Mile, Mini Town offers a captivating, miniature version of the city’s most iconic landmarks. This delightful attraction, established over 50 years ago, is a charming destination for both locals and tourists.
At Mini Town, you’ll find detailed 1:24 scale models of Durban’s prominent buildings, like the City Hall, Durban Harbor, and the Moses Mabhida Stadium. Children and adults alike can follow the intricate network of roads, spot model trains moving across tiny tracks, and observe ships “sailing” through the harbor. It’s a wonderfully interactive way to appreciate the architecture and character of Durban.
Perfect for families, Mini Town provides an educational and fun outing. Visitors can enjoy learning about Durban’s history through the buildings on display, while younger guests will love the thrill of seeing familiar places transformed into a tiny world. And with its beachfront location, Mini Town makes a perfect stop on a day exploring Durban’s scenic coastline.
Whether you’re looking for a unique photo opportunity, a chance to teach kids about city planning, or just a bit of old-school charm, Mini Town is a must-visit!
