A Theme Park for Murcia

The new Terra Natura Theme Park in the Espinardo area of Murcia will cover an area of 13,000 square metres and cater for up to 3,500 daily visitors.
Of particular interest will be the parks replica of the Masai Mara Game Reserve, where visitiors will be able to take land rover rides through the ‘African Savannah’ to see the animals as they might on a real safari. The 400 animals will include: lions, hippos, giraffes, wolves, deer, zebras, bears and many others.
The park will also feature: an area replicating Iberian flora and fauna; a water park area, with water slides, swimming pools and a solarium; an aviary; a wooden bridge 7 metres high and 142 metres long; two cafes; three restaurants, and 5 small shops.
Although the park will be completed by the end of this year, it will not open to the public until next May, giving the animals some time to get accustomed to their new surroundings. The park, which will employ around 100 people, is expected to attract up to 250,000 visitors annually.
This is bound to be somewhere adults and children alike will thoroughly enjoy.
The cost of a ticket is expected to be around 12 euros.
