Ramayana water park in Pattaya – the first in size in Thailand, the second largest on the Asian continent and closes the dozen largest in the world. The highlight of the water park was the design and engineering idea to place a water entertainment complex on the ruins of a mysterious city. There are picturesque ruins, ancient artifacts, rock paintings, and unique natural and man-made objects. The centerpiece of Ramayana in Pattaya is a natural lake, and entertainment is lined up around it. Tourists are attracted by the park’s diversity, service, originality and safety.
What is a water park?
The Ramayana water park in Pattaya contains about fifty entertainment facilities, “sea” and “river”, some of them are developed according to separate special projects and are no longer found anywhere else in the entire Asian part of the continent. A state-of-the-art filtration and purification system is used here, which guarantees high water quality. Service and safety are provided by 350 employees, a third of them are qualified rescuers.
Ramayana in Pattaya was opened on May 6, 2016, occupies 18 hectares of territories among natural landscapes. It took almost 5 years and $ 46 million to build, and was designed by a company that specializes in creating amusement parks like Disneyland.
The name of the park, which is reminiscent of the famous Indian epic, actually has little to do with the idea, but serves as a beautiful attractive sign. The architecture of the buildings, according to the idea of landscape designers, contains motifs of Thai, Khmer and Indian orientation, which helps to join the culture of Southeast Asia.
The Ramayana Water Park is most suitable for families. It has 2 children’s areas – for toddlers and older children, where there are interesting game structures, themed figures, as well as cars for riding. There is even a small attraction for six-month-olds.
The popularity of Ramayana in Pattaya is such that the flow of tourists does not dry up, and even some attractions have to stand in line. According to visitors, this circumstance is quite understandable and incomparable with the pleasure received.
Another advantage is the large territory and the fact that the slides are not located as compactly as in other water parks. Many argue that this is much more convenient.
Slides and attractions of the park
On the territory of the Ramayana Water Park in Pattaya, there are more than 2 dozen water attractions. There are more than 50 water activities in total. They are divided into two groups – family and extreme. The organizers of Ramayana assure that all of them are designed and manufactured from high-tech materials from trusted suppliers.
