Is it known how much the gondola will cost. I read that it will only be available free of charge for those with park addition for that day (once they open), those with the 'parks' plan in there timeshare membership or those with timeshare/membership at the 'Estates' section to the hotel and for everyone else there would be a fee. I had a look on the app this morning and it just said there was a preview of one of the parks new attractions taking place and to talk to the concierge about the opportunity to ride it.

Vidanta SkyDream is now open! Luckily it seems that the gondola goes full circuit meaning that even though it doesn't stop at either of The Parks stations on the east side of the property it does pass through them so we should get good views of the Vidanta World construction just like Genting SkyWorlds.













Aimfair.com pointed out that the design of Vidanta World has changed as seen in this gondola route map, but this map may only highlight or exaggerate certain features of Vidanta World so it's difficult to judge if what is shown on the map is actually a new design or not.

In early schemes of the project's design, during which the entire resort was branded Cirque du Soleil, the main element of the initial phase was to have been a highly-unique Water Park. The entrance to the water park was the 'Temple of the Blue Flame'- a wooden evocation of a classic Cirque du Soleil 'Grand Chapiteau' (Big Top). Inside, visitors would have found Ticketing, Guest Services, Turnstiles, Retail, and Changing Rooms. As seen in this concept art, the temple was to have been animated by 'Flame Keeper' characters. The water park would have immersed guests in a fantasy realm inspired by elements of Aztec and Mayan culture, and was so richly-detailed that it even featured its own alphabet.

As has been widely publicized, early iterations of 'Vidanta World' explored the option of the entire project carrying the Cirque du Soleil banner. In this iteration, one themed zone was the 'Village of the Sun'- a boutique theme park zone which paid tribute to Cirque du Soleil and its most popular creations. This area was designed to serve as a hub with access to the resorts other attractions, including a water park and nighttime entertainment district.

In earlier schemes of the design, when the entire resort theme park expansion was branded Cirque du Soleil, this cluster of tents would have served as the primary ticketing zone. After waiting in a queue, a bell tethered to the host stand would ring, summoning guests into the next available tent. Tickets in hand, guests would have proceeded through the 'Court of the Chimes' structure which served as a covering for the park's turnstiles.
