1. Chimelong Water Park - China.

Chimelong Water Park is opened in 2007 and is said to be the largest water park in Asia with almost a million square feet of water based fun provides numerous attractions. There is a fairy tale world of illusion in water - the Ice Age Tunnel displays cartoon features of animals.

A continuous “lazy river” more than 5 km in length is an excellent opportunity to take a tour along the park for guests.

2. Wet ‘n’ Wild Water World - Australia.

The famous Australian water park consists of a number of unique water slides. The park heats its pools and so tourists can enjoy the park year-round.
