So it looks like Holland is going to get a new 'themepark' for 2011! 'Adventure World' will be build in the Dutch city Almere.
It isn´t going to be a regular themepark, wich you´ll see for yourself if you check out their site
So it isn't going to get any 'real' rides yet, but the park will contain unique simulators that have been designed only for Adventure World. By the looks of it, the simulators are really unique!
At one of the simulators, The Deep Blue Adventure, you'll have to get in a swimsuit, you'll be wearing special 3D-video goggles, and you will go under water for the simulator! It sure sounds unique...
It'll be Europe's biggest indoor themepark, with 35.000 square meters, and the building will be shaped like an enourmous sting-ray. The park itself will be a €18,000,000 investment, the whole boulevard around it is going to cost €1,800,000,000.
But how great it all may sound, I'm not sure if it will be worth a second visit once you've been there. And sure, for now it's unique, but will it still be unique when the park has been open for a few years..?
I guess we'll have to wait, as nothing has actually been build, but we'll see how it works out!
