Happy Valley Chengdu, Amusement park in Jinniu District, Chengdu, China
Happy Valley Chengdu is an amusement park in Jinniu District featuring seven themed sections with more than 130 rides and attractions for families. The sprawling facility combines different experience zones with both modern roller coasters and classic rides designed to appeal to visitors of all ages.
The park opened on January 17, 2009, as the third Happy Valley location following successful launches in Shenzhen and Beijing. The expansion to Chengdu marked the chain's growth strategy during a period of rising interest in large-scale amusement facilities across China.
The park is owned by OCT, a mixed public-private conglomerate that builds a Happy Valley first and then residential districts on the surrounding land if the park succeeds. The Chengdu park cost about 100 million dollars to build and is the chain's third installation.
The park connects directly to Xihua Avenue station on Metro Line 6, making it easy to reach from downtown areas. Visitors should wear comfortable shoes and plan for a full day, as the sprawling layout means there is considerable walking between different zones.
Happy Valley Chengdu was built with an investment of 100 million dollars by OCT, a mixed public-private conglomerate that owns every Happy Valley park. OCT buys large plots on the outskirts of major Chinese cities, well served by transport, builds a park on part of the land, and then starts residential construction on the rest if the park succeeds.
