Photo TR: January 30, 2015: Seven Star Park

[The Angry Darren Mullins]

Yesterday, I work up in Guilin. It is one of the most popular tourist cities in China. I went to Seven Star Park. I knew there were two coasters there. When I got there, I looked at the map and found that there was an amusement park located in one corner of the park. I went to that part of the park and went on some of the rides. One of the coasters I rode was the bog standard jungle mouse that was like so many others I have ridden here in China. The other coaster followed the same layout as a wacky worm, but had a much steeper lift hill, no shallow dips after the lift and was partially enclosed. I left the park after taking pictures and enjoying the rides. When I got back to my motel, I learned that the two coasters listed on RCDB for Seven Star Park were not the coaster I rode. It seems there are or were two amusement areas at Seven Star Park. The area I visited featured coasters not listed on RCDB. The two coasters featured on RCDB are another mouse coaster and powered coaster. I walked very near to where these coasters were supposed to be. There was no amusement area listed on the current park maps where they should have been. I am not sure if I just simply missed this area or if the rides in that area have been removed. With the two coasters I rode here, I have now discovered 257 coasters before ACE or RCDB could find them. These two coasters bring my track record up to 888 coasters.

I have arrived at Seven Star Park.

This is near the center of the park.

This mountain is inside the park.

This waterfall is beautiful

This nice carousel is near the zoo in Seven Star Park.

I like the design on the outside of the Haunted House.

A mouse coaster is here.

This is very common in China.

This gives you a good view of the layout.

This was from my ride.

This was taken from the highest point on the ride.

This was one of the newer rides here.

People were riding the wave swinger even though the weather was very cold.

This coaster that goes in and out of a building is here.

Here is another look at the building.

This coaster was being repaired when I arrived. This was during a test run.

Here is another test run shot.

Here is one more test run photo for you.
