Ocean Park Hong Kong The Summit — Attraction in Hong Kong

For my recent birthday, my friends surprised me with an adventurous day out at Hong Kong's famous Ocean Park. From the moment we arrived, I knew this would be a birthday I'd never forget!

The excitement began as soon as we entered the park and saw the colorful balloons and festive decorations. I immediately felt like a kid again, eager to explore all the rides and attractions. We headed straight for the thrill rides and screamed our heads off on the hair-raising rollercoasters. The 360-degree loop-de-loop on the Dragon coaster will be permanently etched in my memory!

After catching our breath, we tried our hand at the carnival-style games. I somehow managed to pop enough balloons with darts to win a giant panda plushie that I just had to take home. We got our fill of cute animals at the panda habitat and the shark aquarium as well. For lunch, we dined on delicious dim sum while watching a hilarious sea lion show.

The best part was that Ocean Park is so conveniently located, just a 100-meter walk from the MTR station exit. We were able to get there easily from downtown Hong Kong. With transportation so seamless, we had more time for adventures!

Overall, my birthday at Ocean Park was absolutely unforgettable. The parks' exciting rides, skill games, animal encounters and shows gave me a day filled with fun and laughter with my best friends. I couldn't imagine a more perfect Hong Kong...

Opened on 10 January 1977, Ocean Park became popular, but 28 years later, it was unprofitable and widely expected to close due to the new Hong Kong Disneyland. However, the park responded with a HK$5.5 billion development plan that saw it expand to over 80 attractions and rides, and steadily grow visitor numbers to 7.6 million in 2014, making it the world's 13th most visited theme park, and one of the largest theme parks in Asia. The park is separated by a large mountain into two areas, the Waterfront and the Summit, which are connected by a cable car system and a funicular. The Summit, which consists of several hills, has an outdoor escalator that was previously the world's longest. The theme park has various attractions and rides, including four roller coasters, and also animal exhibits with different themes, such as a giant panda habitat, rainforest, and polar displays, as well as an aquarium featuring the world's largest aquarium dome. Between 1979 and 1997, Ocean Park was most famous for its signature orca, Hoi Wai. The park has housed giant pandas since 1999 and was previously home to the world's oldest male and female...
