Thorpe Park (Amusement resort near London)
Thorpe Park Resort, commonly known as Thorpe Park, is an amusement park located between the towns of Chertsey and Staines-upon-Thames in Surrey, England. It is operated and owned by Merlin Entertainments and includes rides, a themed hotel, live events and the UK's fastest rollercoaster Stealth.
After demolition of the Thorpe Park Estate in the 1930s, the site became a gravel pit. Thorpe Park Resort was built in the 1970s on the gravel pit which was partially flooded, creating a water-based theme for the park. It was officially opened to the public by Lord Louis Mountbatten in 1979. It has since grown into one of the major theme parks in the UK.
Major attractions include a large water ride Tidal Wave, a number of rollercoasters including Colossus, Nemesis Inferno, Stealth, Saw – The Ride, The Swarm, The Walking Dead: The Ride and dark ride Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon. Other smaller attractions include a water area called Amity Beach and an Angry Birds themed land. It also has on-site accommodation, the Thorpe Shark Hotel.
Thorpe Park Resort, обычно известный как Thorpe Park, является парком развлечений, расположенным между городами Чертси и Стейнс-на-Темзе в Суррее, Англия. Он управляется и принадлежит Merlin Entertainments и включает в себя аттракционы, тематический отель, живые мероприятия и самые быстрые американские горки Stealth
