Photo TR: Dasin Galaxy Land (Aug. 1, 2015)

August 1, 2015:

 

Today I went to Zhongshan to visit Dasin Galaxy Land. It is a new park that opened about one month ago. The park opened as part of a mall. Part of the park sits on the ground on the north side of the mall and the other part of the park, including the roller coaster, sits on the roof of the mall.

 

There are several rides here including a drop tower, which is still under construction, a boat chute ride and the coaster. I think the coaster's name is Family Roller Coaster. It is very popular with guests, but I found it a bit rough. It clearly is an attempt by Golden Horse to make their own roller skater model without copying it exactly. I rode it twice. It was coaster #937 for me. In all, the park is very nice and has a lot of new as it is a month old. Locals seem to be supporting it and the mall too as both places were very busy. It is nice to see Golden Horse do something different now that nearly every park has a space car or spinning coaster model.

I have arrived in Zhongshan at Dasin Galaxy Land. The park opened about one month ago.

This ride greeted me upon entering the park.

Here is one of the rides at the park.

The monorail looks very nice here.

The boat chute is the biggest ride here.

A roller coaster is here.

It had a decent amount of attention from park guests.

It seems to be based on the Vekoma Roller Skater.

Here it is going over the lift.

This looks like it could be a fun ride, but it is a bit rough. This will finish off the TR.

^ That "monorail" looks suspiciously like a "High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Train Ride" Chinese knock-off!

(alright...it's not so suspicious...it's pretty damn blatant!)

 

Lots of color and RV details ripped off from someone at Dasin's Galaxy Land's trip to Orlando. Fun stuff!!!

Ha! I was thinking the same thing...

Another day, another incident of China making a farce out of intellectual copyrights.

Nice to see this park up close.

Came across it a couple of weeks ago and thought it looks fairly nice for such a small park in China.

Those little Golden Horse family coasters seem to be catching on too. Selling fairly well.

Complete with the original track beams from the original Sylvester McMonkey McBean's Very Unusual Driving Machine! They copied this thing in every way!

Amazing how they think copying designs is a form of flattery. Whatever helps them sleep well at night I guess. The one man band disco knock off looks cool, like something hard rock park would have put in had they been open more than a week.

That disko must look great at night, with all of it lit up.
