Fake Chinese Disneyland (cont.)
So the other week I found an article about a fake Disneyland park in China with Disney characters used illegally (the best quote? "Shouldn't others be able to use those characters besides Disney?") (See News: China's Counterfeit Disneyland).

After that I found the Beijing Shijingshan Amusement Park official website (See Beijing Shijingshan Amusement Park).

But sadly, it was in Chinese. And my Chinese is just a hair worse than my Arabic.

My Arabic? Virtually nonexistent.

So finding out more about this park seemed a long shot. Until my wife figured out that you can get the website in English.

Check it out.

Yep, she's a clever, clever woman, my wife. And that's just one of the reasons I married her.

Anyway, the website doesn't reveal much, or, at least, I haven't found much of interest, but I totally missed the English site altogether, so I'm sometimes a little slow ...
