Top Amusement Parks in India for Families to Enjoy


Over the last couple of decades, India has become a major economic force with substantial influence on the world economy. A consequence of this is the increased movement of people to and from the country to places all over the world. This has put the spotlight on India as a premier tourism destination and this is evident by the presence of some of the best amusement parks being setup in the last few decades in this country.

Wonderla
Amusement parks are places meant for families to come in and have a good time. Wonderla is one of those amusement parks that understands this and has many rides which are designed keeping in mind the entire family. The amusement park is a mix of water based and land based rides. It is almost built like a resort, allowing for stay facilities as well. This allows those who couldn’t get enough of the rides to continue having the fun the next day as well.

Ramoji Film City
Mention India and it is impossible not to talk about the movie culture in the country. If you have always wanted to experience firsthand how movies are made then you have to visit the Ramoji Film City. Originally constructed as a movie set extravaganza, this place is now a full-fledged movie studio and also a family amusement park destination. Visit this place to experience a lot of movie sets ranging from action movies sets to fantastic themed settings used to shoot those grand romance songs. Don’t be surprised if you run into any movie crews and some of the most popular stars in the world at the park.

Essel World
This is the oldest amusement park that is still in business in India. As with most amusement parks in India, Essel World is also a mix of water and land based park rides. Over the years, a number of additions have been made to this park with the more recent additions being an aqua themed dance floor, ice skating arena and bowling alley. If you are visiting Mumbai, this is a must visit place for you.
As a family visiting India, you can expect every possible assistance from the lavish hotels in India. If you are visiting here with toddlers, you have hotels offering you cribs for the baby. Many hotels also have arrangements with the local babysitting companies which provide for such services on a short notice. Almost all hotels go to the extent of arrangement for rooms with a basic kitchen or at least a loaded refrigerator which is essential for families with babies. The concierge at the hotel can also make arrangements to visit the nearest amusement parks.
