This week, in our series on the world's most famous
theme parks, we are visiting The Window of the World

This certainly is a theme park with a difference. The
Window of the World contains over 130 replicas of the
most famous natural and man made sites in the world'
all squeezed onto about 480,000 square metres. Some ofthe replicas are the actual size of the sites while others
are smaller. In one afternoon, you can visit the Eiffel
Tower, walk around the Grand Canyon and marvel at
the Egyptian Pyran.ids. The Aclopolis is here along
with Niagara Falls.
'\{e want visitors to see aild erperience places and
cultures they may not be able to actually Set to inperson. Not everyone can visit every famous landnarkin the world in one lifetime and that is why this park is
attractive to many visitors, both Chinese nationals and

'We are waiting to go down the Colorado River by boat and
some friends of outs ate skiing in the Alpine Ski Resort,' said
one visitor. 'We actually come from Shenzhen and we thinkthispark is a great benefit for our region. We rvill probably never be
able to visit all ofthese places ourselves, so it is leally interesting
for us. Some friends of ours are visiting us next u'eek from the
