In Carnival Festival, you will be taken on a journey past 15 different countries and 270 different dolls at a speed of 1.8 km/h. The ride is 240 metres long and takes 8 minutes. Occasionally the ride will be stopped for a few moments to allow a disabled person on. The ride passes through 9 different regions, each represented by typical scenes and variations on the music. Netherlands The first land the ride passes through is the Netherlands. Scenes of singing frogs, birds, fishermen, tulips, wooden shoes and farmers represent the Dutch cultural icons.Belgium, Monaco and France After a short scene of Belgium the ride jumps from the Mediterranean to Paris, portrayed by can-can dancers in front of the Moulin Rouge United Kingdom Next in line is the British capital, London. Scenes here show the Underground, Buckingham Palace and the changing of the guard. The Scottish Highlands are also present. Germany and the Alps This region is represented by a Oktoberfest, where everybody is happily drinking beer, including a group of Monks. Some mountain scenes from the Alps conclude this part. Italy Here we see Venice, Pisa and a reference to Rome’s imperial history. Japan and China This scene opens with a tunnel decorated with Japanese Noh stage masks. After that we see some Geisha women, sumo wrestling and a Chinese Shadow play. China is portrayed by a large scene with a dragon. The Arctic This is a scene with an icy world filled with igloos and Eskimos and a lot of penguin-sized, snowman-like creatures. After this scene the ride goes through a tunnel where lots of these creatures stare down on the visitor through holes in the ceiling. Africa Here we see large trees as well as a giant monkey and hear jungle-screams Mexico and Hawaii Little donkeys transport Mexicans, of course with sombreros and maracas; guitars and trumpets. Hawaiian Hula girls bid us a farewell. |
