I love amusement parts and water parts, so this concept of having a giant getaway in Jordan is wonderful. I love how Jordan of all places is going to be installing an amusement/hotel that has over 2,000 rooms and tons of attractions. I wonder if the location is going to get enough business from the community. Bringing such a huge attraction to the community will cause a dramatic increase in tourism and economic growth. From the computer rendering in the article, the water park seems to be high tech and futuristic. I love how the slides go through the pool and it looks like an environment that any person would want to play in. I also found a rendering of the layout of the entire complex and it appears to be huge with modern architecture. I would enjoy visiting this place, but I don't think I'll be in Jordan anytime soon.
