Beto Carrero World: Madagascar rapids

[Sam]

Interesting little park in Brazil, that seems to be an odd mix of the kind of ghetto amateur efforts that we're used to in South America, and really impressive theming, almost worthy of a Universal park.

My friend André has been and said it's pretty good.

Anyway, they've just opened a Madagascar themed area, featuring a rapids and a show. It's impressive of them to get such a high-profile IP!

I think the rapids is a retheme though, I'm sure I've seen it in photos of the park before. More photos at this Theme Park Review thread.

No word yet on what they're doing with the Batman & Robin: The Chiller ride that they currently own and that is sitting in pieces in the car park!

Even a "ghetto" (your word, not mine, Sam) park in South America can do better than Chessington's sorry efforts.

How many Madagashcar themed areas does the world NEED?

Looks good though, certainly one of the better looking IP efforts...
