When will Siam Park Tenerife open?
WikiAnswers asked (and so have lots of other people), but nobody answered. The latest rumour was that Siam Park was to have opened before the summer on May 1st, but the official site still says it's coming soon. The unofficial site says, "we have been advised by the parks administration that the park WILL open this summer".
Exactly when is still anybody's guess, it seems.
The Proyecto Siam Park blog (in Spanish), maintained by students at the University of La Laguna, seems to have the most up-to-date information.
And Steve Race, writing in the Evening Gazette in the north of England, speaks of the impending opening, saying, "On a big hill, just north of Las Americas, there?s a huge beacon pointing to the change. It?s called Siam Park, a water adventure park which, it?s claimed, will contain the widest variety of rides in the world."
Indeed, various descriptions of the park's forthcoming rides and attractions involve superlatives such as first, biggest, widest, etc. By the time it does open, it will have also set the record for the longest ever case of ma�ana effect. :)
Mike Souter has a photo of Siam Park, Tenerife, nearing completion here. We can't help noticing, if you look closely at the detail in the foreground, that it confirms this opinion, that it's basically made of cardboard stone.
My opinion is that folk too stupid to discern the difference between Thailand and Tenerife (yes, both start with the letter T, but after that, the similarities end) hopefully, won't ever leave their country of origin. 70% of package holiday Brits never visit modern tourist attractions such as a water or theme parks, so that just leaves the 30% of you who do. Obviously, you know that this is not representative of Tenerife, but you'll enjoy the rides. One day!
