  • André Rieu in Wonderland
    André Rieu in Wonderland A walk through the amusement park "Efteling" where this DVD was recorded. Version 1.4, Jun 2011 The Wonderland walk. Page 1 of 34 Introduction In the summer of 2007, André Rieu and the JSO recorded the DVD “Wonderland” in the fairytale park “Efteling” in The Netherlands. From several people we received requests for more information on this park. In this document we provide some useful information (how to get there, opening times, etc.) and a "Wonderland walk" through the park, passing by many places you will see in the “Wonderland” DVD. History of the “Efteling” Ask any Dutch person above the age of 40 about the “Efteling”. Ten to one they all give you the same answers: “the flying carpet”, “dancing red shoes”, “musical mushrooms”, the “trains” and “Long Neck”, to name a few. Below a picture of my brother and I in one of the little trains. I was about eight years old at that time (±1963). The other picture was taken recently (April 2008). I don’t know why, but it looks like those trains have shrunk quite a lot, but you still have to peddle like a madman to get around the track in a record time. And still no brakes, but good bumpers. But most important: all those popular attractions from the early days of the park are still there and in high demand! The history of the Efteling goes back to 1933, when a few people had an idea to start a sports park with a soccer field and a small playground.
