DUTCH DREAMLAND

1. Japanese and Asian tourists no longer need to go to Europe now that 80 theme parks are open in Japan. ‘The town of Ten Dutchmen’ has a network of canals with beautiful bridges, windmills and watermills. It has a shop selling large round cheeses. It could only be in Holland, but it is not. This town is in Japan, and it's the country's most successful theme park.

2. Last year four million tourists visited the town to experience this near perfect recreation of Dutch life. It is also growing in popularity with visitors from the rest of Asia. The reason for its appeal is simple — it gives visitors the opportunity to experience Europe without the difficulties of long-distance traveling.

3. This town is a development of the traditional theme park concept which visitors leave the real world behind as they explore a fantasy environment. Real Dutch people dressed in traditional Dutch costumes are employed to mingle with the crowds. Visitors can take a relaxed boat drive along the canals or stay overnight in one of the hotels.

4. Other theme parks in Japan offer a similar fantasy experience of countries like Russia, Canada, Turkey and Spain. Also, a medieval German town, Gluck's kingdom, has been created in the north of Japan. Visitors can explore a complete Swiss village where the mountains, at least, are real.

5. But the cost of creating these near-perfect towns is high, and park operators need to make a profit. There is also plenty of competition among parks in Japan to attract visitors, and they need to continually update their displays and add new sights. Creators of ‘The town of Ten Dutchmen’ have come up with their own scheme to remain profitable. They are now offering a chance to live in the town permanently. A complex of apartment buildings at the edge of the park has been built, and lots of new flats have been sold. The complex is also served by its own hi-tech ecological power station, and all cables have been carefully hidden underground. Even the water in canals is constantly recycled. Creators of ‘The town of Ten Dutchmen’ hope it will soon be a real community.
