The United States is well known being home to some of the best amusement parks in the world. Disneyland for instance is a household name for almost any child. However, in addition to this world renowned park the USA is also home to several other amazing amusement parks.
A list of the best amusements parks in the United States of America is objective at best: what's great fun for some may not be for others. But one thing is certain - the best amusement parks in the USA tend to be some of the most popular!
The distinguishing element regarding the best amusement parks in the USA is FUN. And that means variety. Check out the following:
Disney World in Orlando: The Magic Kingdom in Orlando, Florida tops the list when it comes to being one of the best amusement parks in the USA. As the park continues to grow it becomes more and more of a challenge to spend just one day at the Magic Kingdom. Needless to say, the choices are nearly endless. If you are looking for traditional rides and Disney characters, or the world of tomorrow at EPCOT, or maybe a taste of Hollywood, Disneyworld has it all. Visitors can either visit the Walt Disney World Central Reservations at Lake Buena Vista, Florida to make their reservations and plan their trip or just visit the site and make their bookings online.
Hershey Park: Hershey is synonymous with chocolate, so what better way to spend your day than in "The Sweetest Place on Earth." In addition to over 60 sweet rides and attractions, visitors to Hershey Park can lose themselves in the Hershey Museum or nibble on chocolate at Hershey's Chocolate World.
Legoland California: So many small blocks, so little time to put them all together! This is a great holiday idea for families with small children as every ride and attraction in Legoland is made-to-order for children under 12. Here, traditional amusement park rides have lost out to more kid-friendly action and adventure that depends more on the imagination, fantasy and good old make believe.
Mount Olympus Water and Theme Park: This unique "Greek-themed" amusement park boasts six roller coasters and nine go-kart tracks which allow visitors a chance to feel the wind in their face and the roar of engines in their ears. There are also 37 waterslides, a mini-golf course, and an artificial beach with a gigantic tidal wave pool.
