INTRODUCTION

ENTERTAINMENT
 ENTERTAINMENT IS A FORM OF ACTIVITY THAT HOLDS THE ATTENTION AND INTEREST OF AN AUDIENCE,OR GIVES
PLEASURE AND DELIGHT.
 IT CAN BE AN IDEA OR A TASK,BUT IS MORE LIKELY TO BE ONE OF THE ACTIVITIES OR EVENTS THAT HAVE DEVELOPED
OVER THOUSANDS OF YEARS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE PURPOSE OF KEEPING AN AUDIENCE’S ATTENTION.
 ALTHOUGH PEOPLE'S ATTENTION IS HELD BY DIFFERENT THINGS, BECAUSE INDIVIDUALS HAVE DIFFERENT PREFERENCES
IN ENTERTAINMENT, MOST FORMS ARE RECOGNISABLE AND FAMILIAR.
 AN IMPORTANT ASPECT OF ENTERTAINMENT IS THE AUDIENCE, WHICH TURNS A
PRIVATE RECREATION OR LEISURE ACTIVITY INTO ENTERTAINMENT.
 ENTERTAINMENT CAN BE PUBLIC OR PRIVATE, INVOLVING FORMAL, SCRIPTED PERFORMANCE, AS IN THE CASE
OF THEATRE OR CONCERTS; OR UNSCRIPTED AND SPONTANEOUS, AS IN THE CASE OF CHILDREN'S GAMES. MOST FORMS
OF ENTERTAINMENT CAN BE OR ARE MODIFIED TO SUIT CHILDREN'S NEEDS AND INTERESTS.

ARCHITECTURE AS ENTERTAINMENT
 ARCHITECTS WHO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES OF DESIGN OR CONSTRUCTION SOMETIMES CREATE BUILDINGS THAT ARE
ENTERTAINING BECAUSE THEY EXCEED THE EXPECTATIONS OF THE PUBLIC AND THE CLIENT AND ARE AESTHETICALLY
OUTSTANDING.
AMUSEMENT PARK

 AMUSEMENT PARK AS AN AGGREGATION OF THEMED ATTRACTIONS,INCLUDING ARCHITECTURE,LANDSCAPE,

RIDES, SHOWS, FOODSERVICES, COSTUMED PERSONNEL, AND RETAIL SHOPS.

 THESE PARKS ARE EXTREME EXAMPLES OF CAPITAL INTENSIVE, HIGHLY DEVELOPED, USER ORIENTED, MAN
MODIFIED, RECREATIONAL ENVIRONMENTS.

 AMUSEMENT PARK IS A PLACE WITH ATTRACTIONS MADE UP OF RIDES,SUCH AS ROLLER COASTER AND WATER
RIDES.THEY USUALLY CONTAIN A SELECTION OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF RIDES,ALONG WITH SHOPS,RESTAURANTS AND OTHER
ENTERTAINMENT OUTLETS.

 THEME PARKS CAN BE ENJOYED BY ADULTS,TEENAGERS AND CHILDREN.

 MANY ARE THEMED TO A PARTICULAR AREA, THEY ARE,

 WATER PARKS

 PARKS MODELED AFTER TOYS

 PARKS MODELED AFTER MOVIES

 WHY AMUSEMENT PARK?
 ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT REASONS PEOPLE VISIT AMUSEMENT PARKS THESE DAYS IS BECAUSE IT OFFERS A SHARED
EXPERIENCE THAT ALLOWS FOR THE CREATION OF NEW, ONE-OF-A-KIND MEMORIES FOR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS. IT'S A
DIFFERENT WAY FOR PEOPLE TO INTERACT WITH EACH OTHER IN AN ENVIRONMENT DEDICATED TO FUN. SCREAMING
TOGETHER ON A ROLLER COASTER REALLY DOES BRING PEOPLE CLOSER TOGETHER.

 ANOTHER TOP REASON PEOPLE VISIT AMUSEMENT PARKS IS FOR THE SAFE THRILLS. NOT EVERYONE IS GOING TO GET TO
FLY A JET, AND NOT EVERYONE WANTS TO JUMP OUT OF A PLANE, OR GO WHITE WATER RAFTING, OR DRIVE A RACE
CAR. ALL OF THESE EXPERIENCES CAN BE SAFELY REPLICATED AT AN AMUSEMENT PARK.

 THERE ARE MANY OTHER MORE SPECIFIC REASONS FOR VISITING AN AMUSEMENT PARK. SOME PEOPLE GO FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO INTERACT AND ENGAGE WITH THEIR FAVORITE CHARACTERS AND BRANDS. OTHER PEOPLE GO FOR
CONCERTS, SPECIAL EVENTS AND SEASONAL CELEBRATIONS. SOME PEOPLE VISIT BECAUSE THEY ARE PART OF A GROUP
(CHURCH, SCHOOL, COMPANY) WHILE OTHERS VISIT JUST TO MAKE THEIR KIDS HAPPY.

 ULTIMATELY, AMUSEMENT PARKS AND THEME PARKS ARE MASS MARKET ACTIVITIES THAT APPEAL IN SOME WAY OR
ANOTHER TO THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE IN A GIVEN COMMUNITY. WHILE NOT EVERYONE WILL VISIT EVERY YEAR, IT IS A
SURE BET THAT MOST PEOPLE LIVING WITH A CERTAIN RADIUS OF THE PARK WILL VISIT AT LEAST A FEW TIMES GROWING UP
AND THE AGAIN ONCE THEY HAVE KIDS OF THEIR OWN.
ABSTRACT OF THE PROJECT

 THIS PROJECT AIMS TO DEVELOP AN AMUSEMENT PARK THAT WILL NOT ONLY ACT AS A SPACE OF
RECREATION BUT ALSO INTRODUCING A SPACE FOR LEISURE STAY, FOOD,ETC.,HOSTING VALUES OF
SUCCESSFUL PARKS SUCH AS QUALITY, SECURITY, FUNCTIONALITY, UNIQUENESS AND ESCAPE.
