The North Duisburg Landscape Park was originally a large mining and smelting base. Due to the changes of the times, it has become a park that showcases the industrial history of Germany. Many of the factories and equipment of the time are preserved here, and modern landscape design is also added. The two are very harmonious and beautiful.

Duisburg Zoo is one of the famous zoos in Europe. There are about 2,150 animals in the zoo, covering about 280 species, including dolphins, koalas, lions, tigers, bears, penguins, etc. Among them, dolphin performances are popular projects, and the performances are wonderfully arranged. The zoo pays attention to ecological protection, and the environment is beautifully designed. There are large areas of towering trees, which provide shade for tourists and create a natural atmosphere. Some exhibition areas imitate the native environment of animals, such as providing a vast territory for large animals, with mountains, water and waterfalls, and many rockery and tree trunks are built according to their habits. There are many restaurants and snack stands in the zoo, providing a variety of food and drinks, but the prices are high. In addition, there are children's amusement facilities and a canopy playground, which are suitable for family tourists. There is free parking around the zoo, which is convenient for self-driving tours.

Movie Park Germany offers a fantastic mix of Hollywood immersion and high-thrill rides. The Star Trek™: Operation Enterprise coaster and the Movie Park Studio Tour are absolute highlights, beautifully capturing that cinematic nostalgia. The live stunt shows are incredibly high-energy and fun for the whole family.The only reasons it misses a perfect score are that a few of the older attractions feel a bit rough, and the in-park food can get quite pricey. Overall, it's a must-visit for film buffs and theme park fans!
