Billionaire Wang Jianlin's Wanda Movie Park in Wuhan, Hubei province, "temporarily" closed for "upgrading" on Sunday, Dalian Wanda Group announced, in a move made by the company just 19 months after the park opened.
About 400 visitors paid admission to enter the 100,000-square-meter theme park on its last day, the local Chutian Metropolis Daily reported.
The park was designed by global theme park designers Forrec Ltd and special effects teams that produced films Avatar, Sound and Furious and Transformers. It cost 3.8 billion yuan ($572 million) to construct.
