Unfortunately this park is not near Lisbon. It's almost 300km away, if you visit Porto you're ok to go there (about 30km). In Lisbon The only park we had was closed 7 or 8 years ago and until today there is nothing. Cheers.

You bet i will, i expect to return there in July any modifications will be added. Cheers.

Finally, after 2 1/2 years the new Bracalandia is here! We were the 4th to enter the new park (not bad, LOL). In new location in Penafiel near Porto. If you ask me the new location is way far better that the old one, now it's outside city limits located in a small hill with a small valley with lots of trees and green spaces. It's perfect. As you will see in the photos there is lot's of work to do, but the administration never hidded that fact from us. 13th March is also the birthday of my daughter and the staff have prepared some surprises for her, as you will see. By the way they're awesome!!! In one or two years it will be a great place to invite Rob , Elisa and the rest of the team. Until then, nothing but wait. After almost 3 hours by car we 're arrived in the park and this is what hapenned... Finally we're here... This was not the view to expect from an opening day. Nice theming in the entrace. Here is something familiar from the old park. Now for the kids stuff. We have our own Eiffel Tower. Trash bin "Eu como o lixo" means "I eat the trash". Bon appetit... And now for some theming. Ferris wheel from the old park. The first coaster of the park, more are still to come. The medieval village. Mystery island. The pirate ship, which you could visit and see some scenes on it's inside. A detail from the mystery island Artsy photo... Haunted castle. Nice theming to a bar. Look, there's a dead skeleton. This is the Zambeze. Unfortunately it's was very cold to ride it. My wife after luch and a few beers after... A giant me... or a very small Eiffel Tower. Nice view from the Ferris Wheel As you can see there is lot's of work to do. Montanha Mágica means Magic Moutain, the old coaster with the old name. My family having fun in the coaster. A little birthday surprise my daughter's have. Great look, dude! Inside the haunted castle, i think it's not finished. Toillet nerd shot. A last photo before we go. Goodbye Bracas, until next time.

Beautiful park and great photos. This will be one of the first parks outside Portugal, Spain and France that i will visit.

It's a gentle water ride. Where you can fire you water cannon to people outside the ride and they can also fight you back with some water gun that are placed along the track.

It's very smooth indeed. Someday if you try it, you gonna love it.

Because in the several times that i ride superman, i saw few people entering the ride and go directly to the exit. But, i think, everybody should try it. Even i was amazed in the first time seeing superman right in front of me.

Thanks for your feedback. I heard that Coaster Express is a back-breaker or bone-breaker as you prefer but as matteocrepaldi sad it's a missed credit

Four days in the park and other very cool places. Check it out. One last shot. This was the time that my daughter start crying because she don't won't to leave... Forget Batman. Call the fireman. Don't fear! Batman is here to save the day. One more shot of the closed Express Coaster. We are not alone in the park! The first drop is great, great and great! What can i say about superman? Awesome! Finally. Superman... More people in the way ... This day was very crowded... See what i mean with great? Next day, more credits. Stunt fall it was great. And now some night photos of the park! At the end of the day we are back... The day that my daughter's cap stopped Tom & Jerry (just look at this guy's hand) AHHH! There you are... Wait! This is the batmobile but where is Batman? This was a great show with some cool effects. What?! I'm not in Spain? Yogui bear. The kids love it. Who's gonna help the police?? Police academy is a funny show. Believe me this day was hot, very hot. Here we go again! The vengeance of Enigma one hell of a ride. Great park viewing from top. More sexy curves. These curves aren't for everybody. This is what i'm talking about! Second credit of the day. Batman la fuga Great ride. Just now i noticed where my hand is... OMG what hapened to my new TPR shirt? Coaster Express was closed for maintenance It's bath time. It took me just 1 1/2 hours to dry. This day it was hot like hell! The good old west... First credit of the day. Corre Caminos Coaster. Good family ride. Kids favourite part of the park. This is indeed a beautiful park. Looking great... Chinchon a medieval village, just 5 min. by car from the park. First day, Toledo. Cool city.

Finally! After almost two years. The new Bracalândia is in the last stages of construction. For now is the fisrt half, with the old rides. Later will be the second half with the new ones and hoppefully the so long awaited, surprise roller coaster, that's what the park owner's are announcing. But now let's see the photos... I hope to make a Photo trip by second half of September. If the park open until then. This will be the park entrance. This photo was taken in April, now it's almost ready.

You're right i gess they don't want to waste much water.

This was the only theme park in Portugal and then in Septenber 2007 someone close it. To tear it down and construct some offices and a shopping mall But fortunately, someone took the rides and the theming. And started building it in Penafiel a neighbour city. Hopefully it will open again in this year. I'll be there and make another post to you. By the way the coaster was named Montanha Mágica or if you prefer Magic Moutain. Now let's get going... Montanha Mágica.wmv POV from Magic Moutain. It's time to get back to Lisbon After a great day nothing better than a rest. Look i'm moonwalking. No so great SPLASH... My wife and my daughter spinning round. Look it's the pirates... I wonder where is Jack Sparrow? The coaster view from the ferrie wheel. Help. My beard is on fire!! I love giant rats. Time to go on the mine ride. Let's camping... The Portuguese version of the small world. A green dino???? It's a chinese labyrinth A very unstable ferrie wheel How the hell did he get in there?
