Welcome to The A-Z of Theme Parks

Welcome to the A-Z of theme parks, your resource for all manner of information relating to the fun topic of theme parks. Throughout the world theme parks appear covering such diverse topics as Lego to King Arthur of the Round Table and, of course, Disney.

Theme parks are not just for kids, no, honestly, theme parks spend small fortunes in research to ensure that their rides and attractions are appealing to all ages from the very youngest children to the oldest veterans of the rollercoaster.

Of course the rollercoaster is the most famous ride to be found in both the oldest and the very latest theme parks but each year the boundaries of what is physically possible get stretched and the rides become more and more spectacular as each theme park competes with the other to offer the most exciting, and terrifying, rides.

Throughout the A-Z of theme parks you will find information and photographs of the worlds most famous theme parks and their rides. We will also take a look at some of the lesser known rollercoasters and other rides which we think worthy of a mention.

Even if you yourself do not fancy holding onto your pants as you are thrust through the air in a little cart, it is highly likely that your children will be thrilled to get the adrenalin pumping, even if they feel a little ill afterwards. For those who are not thrill seekers most theme parks now offer less frightening rides and other forms of entertainment such as cinemas.

One of the great advantages of the theme park is that it is one of the few places that offer a full days worth of family entertainment and many of the largest can take a week to fully experience the thrill of a themed vacation. Many now offer all forms of accommodation from the finest luxury hotels to simple chalets and caravan parks for those who prefer self catering.

We hope that you enjoy your visit to the A-Z of Theme Parks.
