Rest of the World in general

Newest Review: ... There isn't a lot of thrill rides, with only about three that will satisfy thrill seekers, one of which is the Minetrain. The title of the park suggests something to do with sea life and it doesn't disapoint. The park has a marvelous aquarium as well as sea animals such as sea lions and dolphins. The parks center piece is its dolphin show which is held in a stadium to which the well trained animals perform belief defying tricks. The views from the cable cars are breath taking, and thats if your not scared of heights! The young are accomodated for with a minors section which includes merry go rounds and mild rides.

This little gem mixes the usual aspects of a theme park with attractions from a sea life center and more. The park caters for all ages and as per usual with Hong Kong the park is spotless in apperance.

Rest of the World in general: Duinrell - Wassenaar, Netherlands (119 words)

The site is an old amusement park with campsite, bungalows and hostel attached. The amusements are a bit primative by Disney standards but the swimming complex with multiple long slides, waves, rides etc is top notch. We stayed in the campsite - a number of camp companies offer the site. It was typically Dutch, clean well organised without the German regimented feeling.
