Symbolica, Dark ride in Efteling theme park, Netherlands
Symbolica features multiple pathways through detailed environments, incorporating advanced technology with mechanical figures, sounds, and visual effects throughout its interior castle setting.
The inauguration of Symbolica in July 2017 marked a new chapter for Efteling, introducing an indoor fantasy ride with trackless vehicles and interactive elements.
The attraction follows Dutch entertainment traditions by combining storytelling elements with mechanical engineering to create an immersive family experience within palace walls.
The ride accommodates 1400 visitors per hour, with three different routes available for guests to experience different sections of the palace interior.
Guests travel in golden carriages through the palace, encountering different scenes based on their selected route while exploring hidden chambers and royal passages.
