China's first adult theme park never able to open
The first sexually explicit theme park to be erected in China will never welcome its first guest. The park was torn down because of criticism from public officials. In particular, the artwork was a bit much for the politicians' sensibilities.
Love Land, as the park was to be called, was scheduled to open in Chongqin in October. The park would have offered exhibits on sexual history and workshops for guests on how to improve their love lives.
The lack of subtlety, I suspect, made things difficult for Love Land. The sign at the front had a woman's legs – with a red thong just above – straddling the park's name. Over the weekend, city officials ordered the park's destruction, calling it "vulgar, ill-minded and misleading."
