Busch Gardens Williamsburg August 1998 (Part 8 of 10)

Hello all and welcome back!

We are back for another day at Busch Gardens Williamsburg!

Today and tomorrow we will be continuing our look inside the Land of the Dragons section of the park as it appeared in August, 1998. If you missed our first day looking at this section of the park be sure to check it out here!

Up first is the water play area of Land of the Dragons. This area contains a ton of small fountains, water falls, geysers, and sprinklers that help children stay cool during the very hot and humid Virginia summers. 


For anyone that follows Theme Park Review somewhat religiously, I am clearly signifying above that this was an unacceptable amount of wetness!

And our sendoff for today...


My little brother Steven hanging out in front of some photo opportunity dragon eggs! Kids (and parents) could climb inside the eggs to look as though they were hatching out of them.

The eggs above reminded me of this great PlayStation One game from the 90's. Here's another clip of one of those pesky egg thieves here

To the best of my knowledge these eggs and much of what you will see from me covering Land of the Dragons still exists today. The only attraction removed from Land of the Dragons was Riffle Rapids, which was relocated to the Sesame Street Forest of Fun and rethemed and renamed Bert and Ernie's Loch Adventure.

Alright folks! That's it for today! Be sure to stop by tomorrow for our last day looking at Land of the Dragons and our second to last day looking at Busch Gardens Williamsburg!
