Macao's newly opened theme park logs 110,000 visitors
font size    

Fisherman's Wharf, the first ever themed park in Macao, has attracted over 110,000 visitors since it opened here on Saturday.

Macao Daily News, the leading local Chinese newspaper, Monday quoted sources from the park management as saying that at the peak time on the New Year Eve, around 40,000 visitors flocked into the wharf.

Located in Macao's outer harbor, the wharf with 40 percent of its area standing on a patch of reclaimed seashore covers an area totaling one million square feet.

The project costs a total investment of 2.6 billion patacas ( 325 million U.S. dollars).

Fisherman's Wharf offers a fancy spewing artificial volcano, Chinese fort, faux Colosseum and a variety of borrowed miniature landmarks from Babylon, Miami, Lisbon, Cape Town, Amsterdam and other world tourism attractions.

The would-be opened second phase of the park will cover a giant casino and a hotel.
