World Carnival, the world's largest touring carnival entertainer
based in the UK, plans to build China's largest indoor amusement
park in Inner Mongolia's Manchuri, the northernmost city in China,
bordering Russia.
It is reported that World Carnival (China) Limited Company sent
a fact-finding mission to Manchuri. The company believes that
Manchuri, boasting a special geography and a 7-month-long heating
season, is consistent with their indoor amusement park strategy and
is a favorite candidate.
The proposed park would cover over 2.1 square kilometers,
integrating local culture, amusement park, tourism, and shopping as
well as Russian folk culture. It is expected to boost the local
real estate industry and economic development.
World Carnival is listed as one of the three leading
entertainment brands in the world, together with Disney and
Hollywood.
