        Of course, the king of all family parks, without which it is impossible to imagine the global entertainment industry - Disneyland in Florida. His "Magic Kingdom" is annually visited by more than 16 million people -. So impressive number of people is comparable with the population of the metropolis.Even the most popular park in Asia - also at Disneyland.

        However, the scope of theme parks is not limited to the world of Disney characters and roller coasters. Classic European parks offer guests to immerse themselves in the world of fairy tales, intricately decorated roundabouts and miniatures of famous landmarks in the world.

        Developed Asian countries do not want to lag behind the West: the new entertainment complexes appear annually in the capitals and resort centers and expanding existing ones. They attract crowds of dizzying rides, water parks and green gardens.

        Below are the best amusement parks in the world - with the most interesting thematic areas, stunning costume show, amusement-champions and playgrounds.

The first attraction that invented by our ancestors, we can assume survived the swings and slides for rolling. So, swings and ice slides were favorite entertainment in Russia as in the common people, and at the highest nobility.

        In the XVII - XVIII centuries widespread such entertainment as water games (Comic fountains). The jets of water suddenly erupted from the ground, participantsokatyvaya fun.

        The real breakthrough in the entertainment industry can be considered as the invention by Russian scientist engineer AndreyNartov "mechanical roller coasters" in the middle of the XVIII century to Peter I. This arrangement worked for many years, but commercial production has been established only in a few decades. The French called the attraction "Russian hills". version of the "roller coaster" is used often in our time in Russia.

        Also become very popular with carousel horses. Gradually modernized, and they become a classic entertainment. Soon these carousels are provided with mechanisms to create a sense of race and exclusion of the risk of falling.

        Initially mechanical rides set in motion by means of gravity, either manually or using animal. Then, in the US the first "steam carousel", driven by a steam engine.

        From America to Europe began to receive a variety of attractions. At the same time, from Europe to America went woodcarvers, who founded the workshops where wooden figures were made for roundabouts.

        In 1884 in the United States (New York) there are the first motorized roller coaster rails and special carts on rollers. Soon a similar attraction set in Japan (1897).

        Today primitive attractions (swings, roundabouts, slides) are present on any playground. Increasingly popular amusement parks.

        With the development of large supermarkets and shopping centers is growing market of small attractions for indoor. For example, children's carousel "Fairy Tale" or "Chapiteau". Placed in a building, attractions are not dependent on the weather.
