Vietnam Day 3 - VinWonders Phú Quốc

15 Sep - Today is theme park day and we visited VinWonders Phú Quốc which is located just next to the resort where we are staying. The theme park has an area of nearly 50 hectares, divided into 6 large areas with 12 themes related to famous fairy tales and legends in the world and interesting civilizations such as Europe, China, Wild West, warrior villages and aquarium castles. To me, the whole setup seems to be a rip off from Universal Studio and Disney theme parks, not sure if they have the copyrights to do so or not.

We came at the right day and time. Weather is hot and sunny (Thank God for the weather) to allow us to fully explore the park. Our entrance ticket came with a 150,000 dong food voucher, so our lunch is more or less settled. Overall, the park is not that fantastic per say but given the price of the ticket, I don't mind visiting it again, The turtle aquarium is a good place to escape the sun and chill, and the night final show at the castle is interesting as they project pictures on a water wall, together with music, fire and water jets.
