Wanda Movie Park in Wuhan will open to the public in two days!

ITEC has been working with the Dalian Wanda Group, a Chinese conglomerate, on a mixed-use development in the city of Wuhan. It will include a movie theme park that will open later this year.

ITEC’s projects include a simulator filled with scenes of earthquakes and tsunamis, and a live theater production called Ultimate Energy.

Wanda Movie Park in Wuhan:

Here's the official site for Wanda Xishuangbanna International Resort: http://www.xsbnholiday.com/
ts mostly in Chinese but it is possible to navigate (I HATE sites which play music)

Took me a little while to dig out the actual park but if you can click through to the main page with a menu along the bottom its the third from the right.

Areas appear to be
Butterfly Kingdom
Jungle Adventure
Tea Horse Road
Fisherman's Wharf
and a water park.

I've taken screens of the concept art for people who can't be bothered to navigate a Chinese site.

Here's the concept art for the Intamin Water Coaster

(1/16/14) Back in November it was announced at IAAPA that Great Coasters International would build “The Viper”, their biggest wooded roller coaster ever at the Wanda (Nanchang) Culture Tourism City to open in 2015. (Stats: 50 meter (164 ft) tall lift hill and 1,500 meters (4921 ft) of track).

Earlier this month it was reported that the Wanda Group had purchased a new B&M Flyer Coaster for Xishuangbanna International Resort project.

Today I found an interesting bit of news on the Dynamic Attractions website that confirms that they are now in the midsts of building Dynamic’s very first “Generation II Flying Theaters” attraction for Wanda as well.
