Siam Park City is an amusement park in Khan Na Yao District of Bangkok. The park is spread over 100 acres, divided into a water park and an amusement park. The water park includes seven attractions, including a 13,600-square-metre wave pool certified as the world's largest by the Guinness World Records since 2009. The amusement park contains around 40 rides, including Vortex, one of the largest suspended roller-coasters and Giant Drop, a free-fall ride.
The park was constructed by a group of Thai elites and later established by the real-estate developer Chaiwat Luangamornlert.
Siam Park City was opened on November 19, 1980 under the name of "Suansiam" as the first water park in Thailand. The park began with a water park and a few rides, but it was later expanded and the slogan was changed to "World of Eternal Fun and Happiness". The park now has two million visitors a year and has some of the largest rides in the region.[citation needed]
Siam Park City is not only the first park opened in Thailand, but it is also the longest-running park in the country.[citation needed]
In the fourth quarter of 2019, Siam Park City was rebranded as Siam Amazing Park, although locals still refer to it by its original name.
The world's biggest wave pool with cascading waterfalls and numerous rock pools.
The 75 feet high slider that was recorded as the tallest water slide in the world in 1970.
4 integrated spiraling slides at varying levels.
The flowing river moving throughout the water park.
The health spa club with original Thai massage.
Largest wave pool
On 30 April 2009, Guinness World Records adjudication executive Talal Omar formally recognized the 13,600-m2 (146,389-ft2) wave pool at the Siam Park City leisure park in Bangkok, Thailand, as the largest on the planet at a ceremony hosted by Veerasak Kowsurat, President of the Board of Directors of the Tourism Authority of Thailand. Kowsurat and Chaiwat Luangamornlert, owner and Chairman of Siam Park City Co., Ltd, received the official Guinness World Records certificate at the event, which took place alongside the sprawling wave pool. According to Siam Park City representatives, the wave pool has sometimes been called Bangkok’s inland sea for nearly 30 years and is a very popular attraction in the park.
Outstanding Performance for Recreational Attraction and Entertainment On 27 September 2010, Siam Park City received an award for outstanding contribution to the entertainment business by the Tourism Authority of Thailand.[1][2]
In October 2007, one women was killed and another six were injured when the Indiana Log Slide ride malfunctioned due to an electrical shortage. This ride has been removed by the park.[6] In March 2008, 24 children were injured when the Super Spiral Waterslide collapsed when a joint broke loose.[7]
About two decades, a railway circled the area of the park. This railway is now out of use, but the trains are still kept at the former roofed storage sidings.[citation needed]
