Geister Rikscha, Dark ride in Phantasialand, Brühl, Germany
The Geister Rikscha features 100 rotating gondolas carrying passengers through 250 meters of underground passages filled with mechanical figures and special effects.
Opening in 1981 as Europe's longest underground themed ride, the Geister Rikscha remains the oldest operating attraction at Phantasialand after 43 years.
The ride incorporates elements from Chinese mythology, including the death god Yama who determines riders' fate based on their karma through multiple scenes.
Located near other main attractions in Phantasialand, this high-capacity ride accommodates 3600 visitors per hour with three-person gondolas traveling for eight minutes.
Semi-transparent mirrors create the illusion of monsters accompanying passengers, while automated figures emerge through walls in an elaborate temple setting.
