    The statue at 30:00 might look weird, but it is actually rome's version of the Nativity scene, depicting Romulus and Remus being raised by the capitoline Wolf

    This park has so much potential especially with some of the best overall theming iv'e seen at a park in Europe and the many shows / entertainment they operate. The closed Wooden Coaster needs to be turned into an RMC that would be a good start, this park could potentially be another PortAventura with some investment and the addition of a couple Major Rollercoasters. A B&M Hyper would look amazing amongst the mountains and views over Benidorm or a B&M Dive Coaster.

    You both are lovely, I have enjoyed the video a lot, as always.
    Some things about the park:
    -When it opened in 2000 they wanted it to be a direct competitor to Disneyland Paris when it comes to theming and inmerdive attractions.
    -The piramide used to be a dark ride, a kind of weird elevator with many technical issues. Years later they made a pay-scare maze and now a days is a bussines meeting zone wich you can rent it and make events.
    -The walkthrough used to be a boat ride (dark ride) with a worker sitting on each boat telling you the storie. Years later they changed the boats to circular ones like the rapids and then they close it.
    -La furia de Triton used to have a waterfall yes, and soundtrack through the tunnels.
    -Magnus colossus was the roughtest and nore uncomfortable ride I have been on.
    -The SLC used to be in the Iberian area and was called Tizona.
    -Yeard ago Aqualandia (the waterpark in Benidorm) bought the patk but they are struggling. Parques Reunidos wanted to buy it.
    It used to be my favorite park but unfortunately I saw how they killed it with the years. My dream is that a big company (or at least Parques Reunidos) comes and invest money on it to make it great again. It has got SO MUCH potential on the right hands...
    Grettings to both of you, I love your channel and your positive energy...

    Having watched the whole vlog now, I distinctly remember an odyssey themed boat dark ride (edit: googled it, it was El Rescate de Ulisesor in the Islands area) or at least general greek myth themed, I remember the guy trying to push a boulder up a hill and my dad explaining what myth it was from, and there was all sorts of other things and it was a little scary at that age but also really cool. The second time I came here it was sectioned off behind a separate paygated area and now I’m guessing it’s been removed entirely which really is a shame. It was a quality dark ride

    This park holds a special place in my heart, since that wooden coaster is the very first coaster I have ever ridden! I was very scared of coasters, but my brother convinced me to ride Colossus and I fell in love. The hanging coaster was my second coaster, went on immeddiately after the woody. You can actually see where it used to be at 28:22, there is a clearing behind the drop tower. That’s where it was. Thank you for sharing this vlog. Brought back so many memories. Amazing.

    This brought back massive memories, from when I was about 3 (I’m now 26) my mum and grandparents took me here every summer for around 10 years until we stopped going to Benidorm, this park started my love for theme parks due to how heavily themed it is and now travel the world to see the best theme parks out there, I remember how busy it is used to be and how painful colossus was which is probably why it’s closed. The shows were always great and the pyramid used to be a scare maze. Thanks for covering Terra Mitica, will need to go back again soon for the memories!

    The wooden coaster is SBNO for a good reason. I rode it many years ago while at Uni. To say it was the roughest, most painful ride I've ever experienced is an understatement. It actually had permanent medical staff present to deal with neck and back injuries. Sorry to say but you didn't miss much with it being closed.

    Magnus Colossus was great, the double down was a blast albeit a bit painful from what I can remember.
    There is a strange ride in the Pyramid building which may still be there.

    This park seems to have so much potential. Personally, I'd put in a Mack Hypercoaster like DC Rivals in Australia, as the views from the top would be breathtaking, and the park seems to be large enough to build a ride of this scale. I'd also like to see maybe a highly themed B&M Dive coaster with some terrain work, as I think the park could theme it really well. There's just so much potential!

    It's lovely to see you guys vlog this park, as it's a rare one. I visited here back in 2005 just for a day and the 2 rides I remember are the drop tower and Magnus Collosus. I hadn't been to many theme parks then so these were my first woodie and first drop tower. I remember loving Magnus, it was fast and forceful, but I do also remember the banging headache I had once I got off, so it must have been a boneshaker! Not quite Coaster Express level though... 😂😂

    I don’t know if it still does it but, when it opened, because of the trackless system, the dark ride had it where, depending on how well you were doing at the ride, the ride path would be change throughout, emphasising how it was supposed to be a labyrinth.

Titande used to be Tizona with the queue under the temple bits which was better than it is now, they also used to have two family coasters mirrored like a bull chase through a hedge maze which was awesome. It's sad to see the parks decline but am so happy to see it's still going and hope so much for a bright future!!

    Correction Shaun, the Boneshaker at Terra Mitica is in fact the one from Alton Towers. Surprised you didn't catch that in your research, would have added a little extra to your ride!

    I used to live in Benidorm so had season passes to TM. Colossus was a painful rollercoaster to ride. Even 10 years ago this park was never really busy with many of the food places never opening. At one point you had to pay separately to go to the side of the park with the observation tower and the rapids which I don’t think help with crowd levels. We found that food options were limited. The inverted coaster used to be at the other side of the park and then moved to its current location-it was fitted with VR headsets at one point but always suffered from tech issues. We always found it clean and was a nice afternoon out to cool down on the water rides. THere also used to be paddalos in the lake at the entrance. Such a shame this park obviously has funding issues-I don’t think nothing new has been added for at least 5 or 6 years. The scare walk through used to be a very boring water ride type attraction. Looking forward to the Benidorm vlog on your other channel.

    I love your videos, but to say that the dark ride was "Absolutely fantastic" and "One of the best dark rides in Europe" made me chuckle. I've been on travelling fun fair dark rides better than that, it was embarrassingly bad. Each to their own though, loving the videos. Keep up the great work.

    Spanish park with 200 guests and day and zero queues- "welcome guests, we are open longer than you guys can stay awake"
    UK parks with two hour queues on everything- "it's 4pm guys shouldnt you be in bed, get out"

    I rode the wooden coaster which was stunning, the park stayed open until midnight!! So several night rides. Sadly they were having financial trouble back then. It looked stunning at night especially the lagoon. But without the big coaster it has lost its attraction. It could be so much more

    Shawn you should look into tivoli world in Spain. The park shut in covid but some contact law does not allow the staff to leave so they go in still now to maintain the rides in the hope one day it will open. I'm sure they would show you round as they want to get their situation in the press

    An SLC and a Zacspin... this park could really do with a Volare to complete an unholy trinity! Or more sensibly, I could see a single rail coaster fitting in well here, or a new Vekoma... you just wonder where and when the next investment is coming from though. But it's a great location!

    Fond memories of this park, it's one of the reasons I fell in love with theme parks, we used to visit every year whilst on holiday when I was younger but not been since about 2013. It honestly has so much potential with the right management, shame to see it so quiet in such a popular holiday destination.
    Sadly one of my worst theme park experiences came when I was about 13 and so fixated by magnus colossus watching it go round through the wooden fencing, I failed to realise that the queue was moving, my family went on the ride without me not realising that I hadn't followed them in the queue, I got lost on my own for ages and never got to ride. Would love it to reopen so that I can get the credit and complete the redemption arc 😂

    I have been twice, once the year after it opened, the other about 11 years ago. At first it used to be at least 20% bigger, the theming from the start was always EPIC, and they had planned a lot of large queues and space to expand. But it was never busy, too few rides, very hilly and was always quiet even at peak season. 2nd time, with the reduction of part of the park to a villas. The castmembers were joking about how that was a ghost town. Still didn't draw the crowds. As much as Colossus was supposed to be the Big draw, it was very VERY bumpy and rattly. Way to uncomfortable so never was the big draw ride. All the others rides, which weren't enough of them and good enough, couldn't draw the tourists off the beach. Surprised it still is running.
