Amusement park is the generic term for a collection
of rides and other entertainment attractions assembled
for the purpose of entertaining a large group of
people. An amusement park is more elaborate than
a simple city park or playground, usually providing
attractions meant to cater to adults, teenagers,
and small children. A theme park is a type of amusement
park which has been built around one or more themes,
such as an American West theme, or Atlantis. Today,
the terms amusement parks and theme parks are often
used interchangeably.
Most amusement parks have a fixed location, as compared
to travelling funfairs and carnivals. These temporary
types of amusement parks, are usually present for
a few days or weeks per year, such as funfairs in
the United Kingdom, and carnivals (temporarily set
up in a vacant lot or parking lots) and fairs (temporarily
operated in a fair ground) in the United States.
The temporary nature of these fairs helps to convey
the feeling that people are in a different place
or time... |
