Reviews from Real Guests:

siganteng: China Dinosaurs Park takes a simply theme "dinosaurs" and embeds it into every inch of the park. The theme carries through to practically every ride with great success. The park's major coaster is Dinoconda, the world's third 4D coaster. The ride delivers just like its counterparts. Dinosaurs Mountain is an indoor Zamperla motocoaster themed to pterodacyls. The ride is a little dark, but who cares when you're riding a pterodactyl. Operations at the park are extremely show so plan to spend a lot of time at the park.

Maja V: This place is pretty cool and especially if you live nearby it is worth buying the seasonal ticket and spend the hot summer days there. The food inside is not fantastic, so we sometimes take our own, but there are optiond for drinks and ice cream. The pools seem to be well maintained, the water is clean and the children always enjoy it a lot.

Reviews from Real Guests:

Ramdan993: Salt Lake City Chinatown is a 5.7-acre Asian and Chinese themed shopping and business community, created with the sole purpose of bringing Utah’s amazing and rapidly-expanding Asian Community together, and to bring greater awareness of the richness of Asian cultures to Utah. It is located near the heart of Salt Lake City, on 3390 south, between State and Main Street. It is easily accessible from many points around the Salt Lake Valley and is in fact the first project of its kind in the state’s history. Chinatown spans an entire block, consists of 100,000 sq. ft. of shops, restaurants and retail stores, and a grand supermarket. Chinatown’s main entrance, on the State Street side, opens through a large, decorative traditional Chinese Gate, one that we have painstakingly designed to reflect the rich colors and architectural styles of China in a cosmopolitan setting. All of Chinatown’s buildings are specially crafted to fit this motif, and are accented on the by a colonnaded canopy that protects each storefront, walkway and entrance. Our ideal purpose for creating Chinatown in Salt Lake City is to share with, expose to, and educate our guests and patrons about the beauties of Asian cultures and traditions, and also to provide a welcome space for the Asian peoples of Utah to gather and celebrate those traditions. 

Yulia Hasto: I went there at the end of March 2021. It was when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and there were so many tourists. It should be regarded as the best cherry blossom viewing place in the country. The cherry trees are very beautifully large, and they are all about 30 years old. Japanese friends began arriving in the 1980s. It is not until after planting the blooming flowers at this time, thanks to the predecessor who planted the tree. I feel very good about Wuxi.
