Chimelong Paradise
Chimelong Paradise is one of China's most popular amusement parks — a large-scale theme park in Panyu District, Guangzhou, that consistently ranks among the highest-attended parks in all of Asia. Opened in 2006, it forms the entertainment centrepiece of the Chimelong Tourism Resort complex alongside the Safari Park and Waterpark, offering a comprehensive resort experience within the greater Guangzhou metropolitan area.
The park features more than 60 rides and attractions spread across multiple themed zones, with a particular reputation for high-intensity roller coasters that draw enthusiasts from across China and beyond. The Behemoth Box Coaster — a distinctive inverted coaster design rarely replicated elsewhere — and the Speed Coaster are among the headline attractions. The park also produces elaborate live entertainment including acrobatic shows, large-scale parades, and seasonal spectaculars that reflect Chimelong's considerable investment in performance production and visitor experience.
As part of the broader resort complex, Chimelong Paradise benefits from comprehensive on-site accommodation, a wide range of dining options, and retail infrastructure, making multi-day stays straightforward and well-catered. The park is most comfortably visited on weekdays outside public holidays and school breaks, when queue times for major attractions are significantly shorter. It is easily reached from central Guangzhou via metro at Hanxi Changlong Station on Lines 3 and 7. For families and thrill-seekers visiting southern China, Chimelong Paradise represents the country's theme park industry at its most ambitious, polished, and entertaining.
