#4 Diggerland: Having Loads of Fun with Excavation Equipments
There isn’t probably a time in your life that you weren’t dreaming of operating heavy machinery, right? So where to travel for that ultimate dream of yours? To Diggerland, U.K.! Here, all of your excavation dreams will come true! Ride on a massive JCB, hit the tracks with a dumper, steer the wheels of a mobile bulldozer or more interestingly, watch all of these perform dance numbers and staggering stunts! Diggerland has plenty of construction vehicles to keep you on your toes! But before you get too excited, bear in mind that all rides and attractions in this weird theme park are kept under strict supervision — a safety precaution so you won’t end up getting dumped in the wrong places!
#3 Stalin’s World: The Glummest Park on the Planet
Where to travel for that highly educational yet exceedingly dreary “amusement” park? To Dzukija National Park, Lithuania! This park’s theme revolves around the Soviet occupation of Lithuania for fifty years. That means a lot of emphasis on education and less on amusement. This park is a two-mile hike along wooden walkways, surrounded by barbed wire fences and soaring guard towers for that prison camp ambience, making it a hugely bizarre theme park. To further solidify such reputation, eighty-six statues of people who influenced the Soviet occupation in Lithuania are scattered all over the place and each of these has an attached placard with extremely long reads about oppression, deaths and other atrocities. Very amusing, don’t you think?
#2 Suoi Tien Cultural Amusement Park: A Fun Reminder for the Sinners
This beautiful yet weird theme park located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam has it all — go-karts, water parks, rides and parades. But its theme somehow revolves around something more sacred, and that’s Buddhism. Of course, there is nothing wrong with that but what’s quite disturbing about this amusement park is that there is an exact copy of what will happen to you in the afterlife. That’s if you’d be able to escape all the 12 torments of hell! This ride features all levels of hell and you will be reminded of the nasty things that’ll happen should you decide to become a gambler, drug addict, adulterer or any other type of sinner. Indeed, nothing could ever compare to the feeling of being reminded by your inescapable death and judgment while enjoying their hair-raising rides.
#1: Bon Bon Land: Take the Nastiest Rides of Your Life
Wondering where to travel for all that yucky stuff? Head over to Bon Bon Land! To put it in a nutshell, this place is full of the gross visual gags guaranteed to make guests sort of puke. The theme of this bizarre theme park revolves around a candy maker who makes sweets out of animal dirt and mucky objects, and all of these lovely characters inhabit this nauseating world. Take a ride on the Dog Fart Coaster where you actually get farted by a massive dog sculpture using the latest developments on fart imitation! There are also loads of other cute characters exposing themselves or puking which would make guests extremely happy — assuming that they are not in their right minds, of course!
