Several years ago, the park's owners collaborated with Legacy Entertainment on an exercise to look at ways in which the classic oceanfront theme park might be reimagined. As part of this, a wide variety of architectural styles were developed for the main midway, as seen below. In the end, the selected option was a promenade comprised solely of beloved 'lost' architecture of San Diego buildings and structures which no longer exist.

In addition to the 'Animal Empire' park seen previously, China's DingLong / Loong Bay resort is also planning a large marine life park.

This was first proposed in 2018, and at that time this would have been true. Wales Online are the ones with outdated info.

That is correct, LEGOLAND Windsor is building this as we speak. It just shows how well people are doing their research.

Another possible attraction for the UK?

A huge theme park worth £300m could soon open if Blackpool Council can secure land for the major build.

The firm expected to dominate the site will be the Chariots of the Gods Entertainment Park which is an indoor theme and adventure park inspired by books from the 1960s and 70s by Swiss author Erich von Däniken, reports the MEN.

China's Ding Long group has announced plans to develop two theme parks at their Loong Bay resort on China's southern coast. One of these park's is Animal Empire- a large scale zoological park. Legacy Entertainment, the project's designer, has stated their goal is to design a park that is more sanctuary than zoo, and in which the animal enclosures are visually borderless, with their inhabitants able to roam through much of the property unimpeded.
