Theme Parks

Amusement parks offer endless opportunities for fun. Yet, for the best experience, you will need to do some planning ahead.

Disney may be the most famous park, but it’s not the only show in town. For top-notch thrills and fun, check out these five incredible theme parks.

You save up for a theme park trip expecting thrills, entertainment, and a few unforgettable memories. Instead, you spend half the day staring at your phone, trying to grab virtual queue spots, navigating crowd-control checkpoints, and watching ride reservations disappear before you can claim them. It's a situation that has left plenty of visitors wondering the same thing: if these new crowd-management systems made the experience miserable, can you get your money back?

Old Disney stories never really disappear. Inside the parks, worlds where classics like Dumbo and Alice (from Wonderland) lived are waiting—sometimes as rides, sometimes as mazes, sometimes as shows that surprise you delightfully.

Uncover 11 of the biggest and best malls in the world. From Olympic-sized ice rinks and indoor theme parks to hotels and spas, these megastructures are one-stop vacation spots all on their own.
