Here in Australia we have earths largest scale model of our solar system.

There is a Wikipedia List (German) [1] of quite a few of those (in Germany and in other countries). I stumbled upon it, while trying to find a link to the one in my home town I have wandered quite a few times, as I lived between Neptun and Pluto (it was built before Pluto was demoted), very close to Pluto. It ran the street I grew up in and was built to scale (1:4 bln scale) by a teacher who was a full blown astro nerd and in his free time taught quite a few of the local youth about space, planets, the science behind it, but also built rockets with us and let them fly.

I so fondly remember him, as he was one of those people being a massive inspiration to my life.

Edit: Added scale.

That looks really cool! I've visited scale models of the solar system in Eugene, Oregon[1] and Norwich, Vermont[2], but neither one is anywhere near that size.

There is also one in Palo Alto, California! https://www.paloaltozoo.org/Exhibits/Solar-System-Model

We have one in Munich as well. Quite nice walk along the river

It is old, hence Pluto is still part of it

There is one in Corpus Christi (Texas) that I've seen.

Traverse City, MI has one on their bike trail system: https://traversetrails.org/solar-system/

There is also one in Zagreb, Croatia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nine_Views

That is awesome!

Wow. Such an awesome idea! Thank you, you made my day
