A travel hub for everyone
Comprising an ocean aquarium, a theme park, a water park, a knight-themed hotel and a spa hotel, the Europark Resort in Qihe county, Dezhou, Shandong province, is a comprehensive travel destination that is suitable for people of all ages.
Our first stop in the resort was the Knight's Hotel, which impressed us with its castle-like facade and charming medieval decorations within. Across the hotel is the resort's spa hotel which has a sprawling 2,000-square-meter spa area resembling a rain forest and a 1,100-sqm hot spring swimming pool.
The Europark's entertainment facilities are just as impressive. The venue boasts a collection of about 100 attractions, including the 1,200-meter-long Blue Fire roller coaster which was imported from Germany. The only one of its kind in Asia, this attraction ranks among the most popular in the park because of it speed - the roller coaster takes just three seconds to accelerate from a stationary position to 100 km per hour. While the ride may last only 53 seconds, guests can be sure that they would be left with an adrenaline rush that lasts even longer. Thrill-seekers should also check out the Big Pendulum and Canyon Rafting attractions that are guaranteed to leave their hairs on end.
