Taichung kids have one
more great place to play, thanks to this creative new amusement
attraction which will remain in place until September 2. Already
drawing crowds with its enormous air-filled attractions, this instant
amusement park covers 2,600 pings of space and features about 20
balloon games that youngsters can climb up, slide down, jump around
and crawl inside¼)all without hurting themselves. Brought in from
America and elsewhere overseas, these attractions include the giant
bow of the Titanic, pointed skyward as it slips beneath the waves,
a big T-Rex dinosaur, rocket ships, alien ships and a castle. There
is also a water gun area, snack bar and rides on a train which circles
the site. All is laid out on a big artificial grass mat, with all
guests leaving their shoes at its edge. Tickets cost NT$200 per
child with accompanying adults paying NT$150 each. The best place
to park is at one of the big lots around Mitsukoshi Department Store.
