Photo TR: Rose Lake Park and Taihe Garden (April 12, 2015)

[The Angry Darren Mullins]

I went to the city of Wuzhou in Guangxi province on Sunday to visit a couple of parks there. I would visit the two parks I planned to visit and then find a smaller park that I stopped at.

 

Here is a rundown of each park:

 

Rose Lake Park: This park is built around a lake and a section of amusement rides has just been added in the past several months. The flume ride and Ferris wheel are still not open yet, but they will open very soon. There is a mouse coaster here and it seems to follow the layout of other mouse coasters in China, but it has a couple of differences. The drops are slightly larger on this coaster and the track is of a different design. This mouse coaster provided an intense ride. I really enjoyed it. I took some photos and then left because I had another park and I had a train to catch back to Guangzhou later that afternoon.

 

Taihe Garden:

 

This park has had rides for much longer than Rose Lake Park. The rides are scattered about in three areas here. There is mouse coaster that the layout was the inspiration for the Rose Lake coaster. I like these and that is good because there are so many of them here. I actually found this park a while back and alerted Duane at RCDB about it. There is also a powered Dragon coaster here that has curves that were banked wrong. The car I was riding in on it felt like it was loose and could come off the wheels.

 

Culture Square:

 

This park is in the south park part of Wuzhou. There are only kiddie rides here. I stopped to look around because I still had about one hour left to kill. I saw where they had a knock off balloon ride, so I took a photo of that and then left. It was a nice little unplanned side trip for the day.

 

In all, I had fun at the parks and they made a nice little outing for me. I have now ridden 912 coasters.

I have arrived at Rose Lake Park in the city of Wuzhou. They just added an amusement area.

This Frisbee was the first ride I saw in the park.

This ride was popular with guests on this day.

The Ferris Wheel has not opened yet.

The flume ride has not opened, but park employees were test riding it today.

Here is necessary carousel shot for this park.

Chinese people just love these.

I love the front of the walk through haunted house here.

A roller coaster is here.

It has cars that look like mice.

It copies, but modifies the layout of several mouse coasters here in China, but there are a couple of differences. The track design is one thing that is different.

The drops are a bit bigger. That is the other difference.

Here is a view of the coaster from another angle.

Here is an action shot of the coaster before I leave to head over to Taihe Garden.

I have arrived at Taihe Garden.

2015 is the year of the goat in China.

We will get the carousel shot out of the way early for this park.

There is a powered dragon coaster here.

It is a little bit different than others I have ridden.

I enjoyed this little ride.

Taihe Garden has a very nice flume ride.

The ride through haunted house was nicely done.

A mouse coaster is at Taihe Garden.

These are so common, but I like them.

This balloon ride is a knock off. I stopped at this little amusement park as I was going to the train station. Not much is here, but I thought I would check the place out. That will finish the TR.
