Amongst the main attractions within the park Blue Bridge Tower is perhaps the notable one that links the east to the west of the park. On crossing the bridge you will come across the funicular railways that will take you for a short sightseeing of Beijing. In the eastern side of the park you will find a shooting gallery, bumper cars, desert race cars and carousels and 3 kiosk-like cafes. Walking over the bridge will take you to the 4D cinema, which is also one of the highlights of the park. Apart from the usual three dimensions that you are used to, this 4D cinema will make your seats jerk and throw water on your face according to the motion picture track’s sounds.

To cover all the attractions you would need 2-3 days to spend. Though the admission fee is 10 Yuan, it is better you bring in 200 Yuan extra as every ride needs about 20-50 Yuan or more extra. You have to wait for your chance to get on the rides.

If you are hungry, you can eat from one of the many restaurants that are located within the Shijingshan Amusement Park.
