Featuring most varieties of modern water facilities, the park includes an outdoor area, a 33,000-square-meter indoor area and a sea-themed hotel with hot springs and salt water spa.

Ferris wheel park

The Ferris wheel park, located in the Wufeng Plaza in the north of the city, is designed for children and teenagers with many amusement facilities such as a Ferris wheel and merry-go-round.

Yanidey paradise

Yanidey paradise is a large amusement park that opened to public in October 2014 as part of the Mid City, a commercial complex in the south of Kunshan integrating shopping, eating and recreation facilities.

The 'paradise' consists of four parts: a desert-themed part, a forest-themed part, a children's park and an area for parent-child interaction.
