We are going to talk to you about the amusement parks in Burgundy. Actually, there is not a lot of them in our region... For example, the two most “famous” amusement or zoological parks of Burgundy are the “Parc de l'Auxois” and the amusement park of the “Combes”.
Actually, both are located in Burgundy but the “Parc de l'Auxois” is located in Côte d'or (our department) and the amusement park of the “Combes” is situated in Saône-et-Loire.

Let's talk quickly about these two parks. The “Parc de l'Auxois” is a zoological park with about 500 animals of 90 different animals species ! But there are attractions too but rather for the children... But ! And this is what I prefer (even if I never go over there), there is an aquatic park ! With (sure) swimming pool and slides ! ♥ Moreover, to eat, there is a cafeteria. But this park is not really famous and consequently not really... “developped”. So it's not really cool because there isn't a lot of attractions ! Actually I think that this park is especially for young children. On the other hand, if you want more informations you can go on this website : http://parc-auxois.fr/.
Now, we are rapidly going to present you the park of the “Combes”. I think this is the most famous park of... Burgundy ! In this park there is a lot of attractions : some for the young children but there are “attractions of high sensations” (do people say it like that ?) too : fast, high... There is a train too, which takes you into the “heart of the nature” ♥ (because there is the forest around this park). To eat, there is picnic areas and restaurants. Unfortunatly it's just open from March to November. There is a really cool princip (unlike the fun fair), indeed you just pay at the entrance and then you can do all the attractions you want (well, it's more complicated, actually you have to pay a kind of “pass partout” but I'm not going to go into details...). I think there is a very famous attraction in the park of the “Combes” which is called the “Boomerang”, this is “russians mountains” ♥. If you want to see what people see when they are in... the wagons of these russians mountains, you can go on this website : https://translate.google.com/?hl=fr#fr/en/wagons. To conclude, once again, if you want more informations you can go on this internet site : http://www.familiscope.fr/sorties-famille/parcs-de-loisirs/parc-touristique-des-combes/#acces. Moreover, on this video you can see all the attractions and it present you the park of the “Combes” : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiYfanBbajw.
However, there is a very famous amusement park near Burgundy, about 1h30 from DIJON, and we really wanted to talk you about this fabulous park !
So, this amusement park is one of the three most famous amusement parks of France : after Disney Land (that all of you certainly know) and the “Asterix's park”.
This park is situated in Dolancourt. He was founded by two brothers. Someone told us one day that a little fun fair (of Dijon) went bankrupt. Consequently two brothers bought all the fairground attractions and they found Nigloland. (But I think it's a legend / an anecdote.) These brothers were called Patrice and Philippe Gélis. This amusement park dates of 1987. This park has a very famous mascot which is a kind of hedgehog. It's called Niglo. Furthermore, the name of th Park Nigloland is from the name of this mascot. This park welcomes more than 500 000 people by season. This is really impressive ! There is 37 attractions ♥ ! (https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigloland)

Nigloland is separated in four parts / four themes : the Canadian village, with, for example, the “Canadian river” and the “Grizzly”, the swiss village, with for example the “bobsleigh running”, the rock'n'roll village and, finally, the wonderful village, with for example the enchanted river.
The most recent fairground attraction is called the Alpina Blitz ! This is just awsome and wonderful ! If you want to see what you see if you do this, you can watch this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9FX-hf7PHQ . Impressive, isn't it ? The speed is 83km/h.
This is the best attraction of this amusement park ! The second best attraction is the “spatiale experience” (well, this is the Péroline's ranking, because she went a lot of time in this park ! ♥). This is russian moutains in interspace ! Well, it's russian moutains in the dark (very sensational !) and you can see kinds of planets in the “sky” ☺. Since it's in the dark, I can't show you a video because you wouldn't see or feel the attractions ! ;)
Then, once again according to Péroline, the third best attraction is “air meeting”. It's really really hard to explain... You're like a pilot, you are “in the sky” and YOU can choose your path. As I said, it's complicated to explain... This video explain better than me : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSQZbQxCIpo.
To finish, the “Grizzli” is a very good attraction ! It's hard to descibe. It mesure 100m long and 15m high. It's “revolutionnary seating system” ;) . Here is the video of this attraction, you will understand better xhat I try to explain : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ChJfZLsy5o.
Péroline's notice : I think that the Park Nigloland is a very very good park ! Indeed, each time, that was really great ! Moreover, there is not a long waiting line so it's cool ! To conclude I think it's one of the best entertainment park (in which I went...) ! ♥
You know now all about the entertainment parks of Burgundy, especially about Nigloland ! ♥
