China: the chocolate world
(European News)
China continues to amaze tourists with openings of new unique attractions. Not so long ago in Hong Kong was opened the largest amusement park in the Disneyland, and now was presented new concept of a theme park, which promises to be a novelty for the tourism industry. China launched the only of its kind chocolate theme park.
From December 16, 2011 to February 19, 2012 in the Himalayas Art Museum in Shanghai visitors will be able to see unique exhibition - World Chocolate Wonderland. On the area of 3500 sq. meters visitors will be presented over 200 works of art made from chocolate. The exhibition is timed to the move of the Himalayas Art Museum into the new building.
Chocolate Wonderland, which will be launched in Shanghai, is a traveling exhibition. For the first time this unique exhibition was presented in 2010 in Beijing. According to CNN, during two and a half month the exhibition was visited by nearly half a million visitors.
It should be noted that chocolate is the only theme that unites exhibits of the Chocolate World. After all, it is hard to trace connection of the Terracotta Warriors with Louis Vuitton handbags, if only they are chocolate copies of the existing things. Among the exhibits are also chocolate copies of Transformers, Chinese sites, chocolate sushi, Chinese porcelain and other.
After Shanghai the organizers of the unique chocolate exhibition do not plan to stop. It is planned that trip of the World Chocolate Wonderland will continue in another major metropolitan area of China - Hong Kong. However, the exact dates are still unknown.
