You can very well imagine the effort and patience needed to create a Lego structure. Well then, how about a map of a continent in Lego? No need to imagine it, for what you are seeing is actually a replica of the European map built with Lego bricks. The fantastic structure called the Euromap not only includes detailed color coded topography but even notable monuments in different countries.

The map along with the standing structures have been put together by Vanessa Graf, Tanja Kusserow-Kurth, Torsten Scheer, Bruno Kurth and Tobias Reichling. From planning to execution to completion, it took 6 months [April to September 2010] for the team to achieve the feat. Check out more pictures showing different stages of construction, close-up of the models and the exhibition at t-reichling.de
