Window of the World, Theme park at Changsha, China
Window of the World is a theme park in Changsha spread across about 40 hectares with miniature replicas of landmarks from around the globe. The grounds feature roller coasters, a Ferris wheel, water rides, and bungee jumping to suit different tastes for entertainment.
The park opened in 1997 as part of China's growing interest in presenting global culture to its visitors. A major company took a stake in the operation years later and helped expand the attractions available.
Daily performances showcase music, dance, and crafts from around the world, letting visitors experience cultural expressions firsthand. These shows unfold at different areas of the park, showing how people in various countries celebrate and share their traditions.
The park operates year-round, so you can visit in different seasons and weather conditions. Wear comfortable shoes and plan for rest breaks since the grounds are large and you will spend much time walking between attractions.
You can walk from the Eiffel Tower to the Great Wall to Mount Fuji in just minutes, creating an unusual geographic experience. This proximity of far-flung landmarks allows you to compare different architectures and cultures in a single day, which real travel cannot offer.
