In operation since the end of May, there is a new space that promises to delight all the kids: the “Pinocchio” theme park. Located in Jardim Soares dos Reis, in Vila Nova de Gaia this is another place to consider when it comes to providing moments of fun for the little ones.
With this inauguration, the municipality of Gaiás presents its second space of this kind. This after completing its first theme park last year “Around the world in 80 days” in homage to the literary work of Jules Verne.
“Pinocchio”: the goal
This theme park is the result of an investment by Vila Nova de Gaia City Council of around 411 thousand euros. As already mentioned, this is the second space in a project that will include a total of 12 thematic units.
According to its official website, the municipality of Gaiânia stresses that the aim is to implement a distinctive recreational and leisure network, with an innovative and intergenerational character.
What will you find there?
Painted in shades of blue and red, in the “Pinocchio” theme park you can climb, slide and even reach a viewing platform.
In the green space surrounding the infrastructure, there are “36 excerpts from the story” of the famous character, with the aim of demystifying the figure of Pinocchio.
Around here, you’ll also find a message, almost as a ‘moral’ of the story, which serves to kids but also adults:
Your parents can show you the way, but it’s your decisions that will dictate your future. The easiest way is rarely the best.”
