Today was Chimelong Paradise...a nice park...not amazing like Happy Valley was, but a really nice, solid park.
It kind of reminded me of a Paramount Park before Cedar Fair came in, but with the Cedar Fair school of naming.
Everything had generic names...I mean EVERYTHING! "10 Inversion Coaster", "Dive Coaster", "Spinning Coaster", "Shoot the Chutes", "4-D Movie", etc, etc....
The coasters were all good too. This is probably the best collection of quality so far. Dive Machine was a SheiKra clone, which was fine because I love that ride and this one was equally as good. 10 Inversion of a clone of Colossus at Thorpe Park, but with less rattle. The Motorbike coaster, Half Pipe, the spinner and the kiddie were all good also.
Anyway, here's some photos....

| Orgiastic screaming everywhere! That's hilarious. Are the extremely generic names just translated that way for English, or are they really that lame even to the Chinese? I guess someone who speaks that language would know. KT looks like she got a bunch of "myspace/facebook" photos on the coasters. I have also wondered whether or not to count my Half Pipe credit as a coaster. Essentially it's just a large, fun flat ride to me. Oh, and it's nice to see a splashdown pool that doesn't look like a kiddie pool. Awesome update!

Or just from the orgy itself. "Orgiastic screaming" is not allowed in U.S. parks, with the exception of Led Zeppelin: The Ride.

Awesome update, I was looking forward to seeing some pictures from this park! I love the Cedar Fair names for everything! Dive machine doesn't look like an exact copy of SheiKra from the pictures though, the segment between the immelmann and the mid course seems different to me (although I could be wrong, but the rest of the ride looks the same).
Thanks for the update!

^Yeah, it doesn't have the post-Immelman helix Sheikra has.
Either way, it looks like a kick-A$$ ride, and I'm jealous . Jealous of the whole trip really, China's a place I'd love to see. Boo!

Believe it or not, it could be orgiast.ic screaming.
I had a high school english teacher that was very fond of that word. You could be screaming in celebration of an or.gy on that ride... you never know.
This park is the reason I considered going to China. Well, this park and all the cultural stuff.

The photo quality on he China trip has gone downhill. It is appalling. Hanno needs to go on every TPR Trip.
Seriously, keep up the good work you sure are getting these mini-updates posted in record time.

I love Chimelong Paradise... They did a good job in such a short period of time! It is just 2 years and they already have amazing rides and coasters.
These chinese updates are awesome! =D
Orgiastic screaming...
