This point has been described very beautifully several times already, and when I come here again today, it is just as wonderful. There are people swimming in the water and it really looks like paradise.

It's quite interesting when almost all houses are painted blue. Unfortunately, the Smurf figures are no longer there, allegedly due to excessively high licensing fees.

Funny Smurf village, whose house facades are painted blue, as the village was chosen for a Smurf film. A later vote by the villagers resulted in them keeping the blue color as the house paint. Some houses have paintings, and there is also a town map that points to the attractions.
