The story of the appearance of the name of the water park - “Lagoon of typhoons” is also interesting. The creators of this entertainment complex came up with a legend that says that once a powerful typhoon hit a beautiful tropical lagoon. And to make the legend look authentic, we designed the water park accordingly: surfboards and fishing equipment were stuck on the tops of palm trees, fragments of yachts and the remains of deck chairs were scattered in some places, and a dilapidated schooner found its last refuge on the top of the volcano. And such a legend works great, visitors to Typhoon Lagoon are delighted not only with entertainment, but also with design.

But in order to feel like in a real resort in a water paradise, you need to look only for a unique place. Where is it?

The largest water park in the world, the one that is recorded in the Guinness Book of Records, was built in Japan. It is located on the small island of Kyushu. And it is on it that there is a popular vacation spot for literally all Japanese and numerous tourists - this is the resort of Sigaya. The resort occupies a gigantic territory of seven hundred hectares. And the whole territory is truly unique. The whole beach is covered with amazing artificial "sky". Under a kind of dome is an artificial ocean, in which the water temperature is constantly maintained at the same level - twenty-eight degrees Celsius. And the most important highlight of the resort is the water park-rekodtsman called “Ocean Dome” or “Ocean Dome”. And why is it considered the largest and what is this water park famous for?

The Ocean Dome is actually a grandiose structure of this type. In the park at the same time can be up to ten thousand people.

On the brink

In 2001, the largest water park in the world almost had to close. The fact is that at that time the resort had accumulated a huge debt of two and a half billion dollars. And this despite the fact that the entrance to the grandiose structure is worth a lot. To swim on a covered beach with perfect weather costs from fifty to one hundred dollars. In fact, at the beginning of the new century, Japan’s infrastructure was not going through the best of times, there was a big decline and interest in the water park, even if it’s so unique, faded away. Moreover, next to the indoor water park there is another, quite ordinary, and no less popular beach. For seven years, the company - the owner of the water park tried to make ends meet. Nevertheless, it was possible to overcome the crisis, so the beach and water park are now thriving again.

The Ocean Dome today is not just a beach, but a real paradise. It has everything to relax with both soul and body. In the water park there are beaches of pure white sand (it is changed every week, by the way), splashing water in the ocean with artificial waves (this is especially for fans of surfing), there are water cascades that look like real waterfalls in the jungle, slides for any age and taste, as well as small pools for children, a Jacuzzi for those who want to relax, spa pools, and a whole sea of \u200b\u200bvarious water attractions. On the territory of the "Ocean Dome" for visitors erected restaurants and bars, discos and cinemas.

Well, the most fabulous time here comes late in the evening, when a beautiful enchanting show is organized on the water surface of the water park. Therefore, it is impossible to leave indifferent from the water paradise, the "Ocean Dome" attracts like a magnet, so visitors come back here again and again. By the way, the Japanese authorities plan to attract even more tourists to their country with the help of water parks. They plan to build similar structures on other islands.

Tropical islands

Another largest water park, but already in Europe, is called "Tropical Islands" or "Tropical Islands". This covered area contains a rainforest with the bewitching name "Flower World".
