Traveler reviews
Maya
★★★★★a year agoVery beautiful park with a lot to see. The park is quite long, so I would recommend renting an electric car. Definitely bring sunscreen and a hat — the weather can be intense, and shouldn’t be underestimated. We walked around the park for three hours without a car, and it was exhausting. There’s a wide variety of attractions to see, from the Eiffel Tower and Lincoln statues to Lord Hackfresse, pyramids, and more.
