Just something to note. The latest edition of First Drop magazine has a bit about GCI president Clair Hain Jr talking about a wooden coaster from GCI going to Six Flags Dubai. So it seems the rides wont exactly follow the plans released previously (no surprises there though)

And a few more from Wuxi

The coaster from Premier has now been installed. Hopefully some pictures will appear soon.

The latest Z Press news letter from Zamperla says theyve sold a Thunderbolt to Robotland South Korea opening next year. Perhaps it is back on.

Is there even any sign of the Intamin coaster that's supposed to be heading here? it was put on lorries in Brazil months ago.

Updates from two long delayed Chinese projects

The S&S launched coaster at Sun Tzu Park looks like it's finally getting underway. Ground work is underway and the track is all on site.


Fuli Ocean Park on Hainan is also now properly underway. The footers for the Intamin beyond vertical coaster can be seen as well.

F1-X Theme Park looks like its back underway.

A mystery what if anything they'll be able to salvage from the coasters left in the desert for the last few years.

Excellent post by Micael listing the up and coming projects. I can add a couple of locations to that.

10. Wanda Chengdu Cultural Tourism City
Completion: 2018
Location: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@30.9586024,103.6103632,1755m/data=!3m1!1e3
Budget: $7.6 billion

11. Wanda Guilin Cultural Tourism City

Location: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@25.2296861,110.3106087,1131m/data=!3m1!1e3

12. Wanda Chongqing Cultural Tourism City

The Chongqing and Chengdu ones are accurate and the weird show buildings Wanda build to showcase the model at each park are present on the satellite image. Guilin is based on diagrammatic maps seen of the project and is approximate.

And in relation to Wuxi. The mall is well under construction but nothing vertical on the park yet


Coaster wise the expected lineup is
B&M Wing Coaster
Mack Blue Fire Launch Coaster
Intamin Impulse Coaster
Golden Horse Wild Mouse.

Forgot to include a source link for that image

Construction of the park is underway

yes it's to the left of the entrance.

The Mack launched coaster Capitol Bullet Train has finally gone vertical

The Chengdu park is still moving forwards. It is however quite a way out of the city in a different town that I believe is a bit of a holiday destination in China.
They have also announced their own park in Chongqing which will be to the west of the main city.

Both these parks are way in the future though. 2019 at the earliest from what I remember.

Despite the article below it seems construction is underway

I believe its somewhere along this section of coast.

no exact point yet though.

Sorry that last one should be Wanda Chengdu not Guilin.

I can try my best

Here's a list from the Wanda stuff at IAAPA.


Wanda Xishuangbanna (Opened October 2015)

Wanda City Nanchang (Opening October 2016)


Wanda City Hefei (Opening 2016)



Wanda City Harbini (Opening 2016)



Wanda City Wuxi (Opening 2017)


Wanda City Guangzhou (Opening 2017)


Wanda City Qingdao (Opening 2017)


Wanda City Guilin (Opening 2017)


Wanda City Guilin (Opening 2018)


Wanda Movie Park Wuhan has its own thread on here and is open and Wanda Changbaishan appears to be a ski resort rather than a theme park.

The actual plans suggest it's quite a bit smaller than the original concept art although perhaps this is just phase 1.

Close. It's a little further north than that on the same side of the river.

Possibly layout for the Nanchang Intamin was released by Wanda
