MEXICAN JOURNEY (2008)

Overview

 We created a tribute to our mother land with this project. The theme park has many firsts in the industry. It is the first theme park, where the Parking Lot is an attraction, because guests will “fly” to Mexico City airport in a mini plane. The park itself is divided into three “lands”, North, Mid-Country and South. Each land has unique attractions based on the main cities and events that occurred.
