Window of The World & Little Stuff
Saturday, January 14, 2012
Shenzhen, Guangdong, China
Hey Hey and a Big G'Day toya,
What an amazing day I had today.
What I thought would be extra cheesy ended up being extra awesome!
Diminutive famous monuments of the world all found packed choc-a-block in one theme park located on the outskirts of Shenzhen city in the 'Overseas Chinese Town/Happy Valley’ area. There are another two theme parks located within walking distance of this one but I ended up having such a great time that I stayed for the evening performance.
WINDOW OF THE WORLD
The theme park contains over a hundred miniature replicas of famous landmarks and attractions from all over the world for example the Eiffel Tower, Taj Mahal, Pyramids of Egypt, the White House etc. Different festivals from around the world are also celebrated here throughout the year such as Christmas, the International Beer Festival, music performances and a spectacular large scale evening show is presented daily.
There is now no need to spend eighty days to tour the world as you can see one hundred and eighteen of the world's greatest attractions set up on different scales across forty eight hectares. It offers world wonders, historic sites, scenic spots, natural landscapes, folk dwellings and customs, and world-renowned sculptures and paintings. Main attractions are the one hundred and eight meter high Eiffel Tower form Paris, the Niagara Falls from Ontario Canada, the Taj Mahal from Delhi, Mahamuni Pagoda from Mandalay, Angkor Wat from Cambodia and the ancient Egyptian Pyramids.
Beers N Noodles toya…..shane
