It is very suitable for taking photos and checking in. In fact, there are many collections, and it is worth a slow visit. Although the paintings of Leonardo da Vinci and Van Gogh have been returned to France, I saw paintings by Picasso and Monet, as well as many exhibits from China.

Qasr Al Watan

It can be simply described in one word: luxurious. Blingbling. Tickets can be purchased and used at any time, very convenient, just scan the QR code.

It&rsquo;s fun to play a day. There are several roller coasters. The fastest and most exciting ace pilot roller coaster is too scary. It&rsquo;s fun to print photos. It&rsquo;s a bit expensive. The restaurant inside is also expensive, but it&rsquo;s fun. If you like to play roller coaster, you can play for a day.

From the exciting Ferrari Park to the Warner Bros. Studios that recreates memories, to the Atlantis-like underwater world, it is a great place for family travel and a great place to reminisce about childhood and dreams.

The roller coaster is super exciting, but it really makes your legs weak when you get off. There are not many places suitable for children who are too young to play. Warner is more suitable for children. They are all indoors, and it is also very comfortable to play in summer. The queue time is not long compared to domestic amusement parks, which is good.
