Photos from rotting Chinese theme-park in Orlando
March 26, 2008 4:39am
I remember visiting that place back in 1997 during a trip to Orlando. We had to pick up some hotel vouchers from our travel agent, and the agent's office was actually in the park. The park was apparently making extra money renting out office space.
We wondered how exactly we'd get into a theme park without paying, but the ticket booths were abandoned and anyone who wanted to attend could just walk in. Not that that was helping. We were the only people there. We felt bad for the employees who standing ready to give tours but clearly never actually giving one.
I heard the manager sent from China to run the place was eventually returned to China and imprisoned because the place was such a failure.
