In addition to the 200 sq.m rink, the park has also launched an “ocean world” with 2,000 kinds of sea animals including sharks, rays, seals along with corals and rare marine plants.

Construction of the 1.7 trillion VND (90 million USD) park was started in 2005 and so far, most of the 34 entertainment facilities within the park have been completed, welcoming thousands of tourists, local and foreign alike, every day.

The other entertainment facilities include a safari park, a modern 4D cinema, a 2,000-seat convention hall, a restaurant and theatre and a tennis course./.
