Photo TR: Bandao Culture Sports Park (March 14, 2015)

On March 14, 2015, I ventured over to Huizhou to visit Bandao Culture Sports Park. I found this park sometime ago and knew that it had a coaster. I didn't get to visit the park until this weekend.

For those who want to visit, you should go to Huizhou by train to Huizhou South train station. From there, take bus 6 directly to the park.

Bandao Culture Sports Park is a very nice park, although some sections of it are fade, others look like they were built yesterday. There are several basketball courts and other sporting facilities here. There are also three clusters of amusement rides. Two of them are very close to one another and feature mostly kiddie rides. Another section of rides has a coaster, paratrooper and some kiddie rides.

The coaster here is a jungle mouse coaster that is similar, but not identical to some of the others I have ridden. On this one, the drops are very gradual. Actually on most of them, the drops are gradual, but it is even more so on this one. The brakes made a funny squeaking sound and at times, I thought the ride would fall apart. Other than that, I enjoyed this coaster. It is one of 263 coasters I have found before RCDB or ACE, although it took me a couple of years to get over to the park and ride it. It was also my 205th coaster. Last week, I visit Chuangyi Future City Amusement Park in Shenzhen's Pingshan district. Both of these parks are three miles (5 km) away from each other and you could walk the distance between them in one hour or so.

In all, I had a great time at this park.

I am in Huizhou today to visit Bandao Culture Sports Park.

There are rides here.

A nice little merry go round is here.

This is a very colorful Ferris Wheel for children. I think they let adults ride too.

The train entertains children who visit Bandao Culture Sports Park.

This one of many kiddie rides here.

I thought this was a nice little ride for kids.

Pirate ships are popular at parks in most countries.

A paratrooper ride is here.

This is one of the games in the park. Who is up for some target practice?

A mouse coaster is here and it is similar, but not identical to other mouse coasters that I have ridden in China.

Once again, this is a very common sight for me in China.

The coaster even has a name.

Here is a shot of the lift.

Here is a side view of the lift. This coaster was easy to photograph from different angles.

Here is the mouse from another angle.

Here is one section of the coaster.

I will close out the TR with an on ride shot.
