It's a total mess. You start with chaotic parking, then under thundering bad music you enter a triumph of bad taste. Not only will they try to forbid your camera if they think it is too 'professional', I wouldn't take it for its safety anyway.

The lighting and landscape design are especially beautiful at night. It’s a great spot for a fun family evening out.
There’s no entrance fee to access the park area — you only pay for the specific activities or...
