THEME PARK AS A SOCIO-CULTURAL ENVIRONMENT AND ARCHITECTURAL

INTRODUCTION
An amusement park is a park that features various attractions, such as rides and
games, as well as other events for entertainment purposes. A theme park is a type of
amusement park that bases its structures and attractions around a central theme,
often featuring multiple areas with different themes. Unlike temporary and mobile
funfair and carnivals , amusement parks are stationary and built for long-lasting
operation.
The amusement park evolved from three earlier traditions: traveling or periodic fairs,
pleasure gardens and exhibitions such as world fairs.
Theme park as an aggregation of themed attractions, including architecture,
landscape, rides, shows, foodservices, costumed personnel, and retail shops.
A theme park is a destination in its own right, which combines entertainment, food
and beverage and shops, and an environment that is different from that found outside
its gates.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
As more and more visitors enter the park each year, the total number of guest within
the park has exponentially increased.

The main problem resulting from the increase in park attendance is overcrowding.

MOTIVATION
Marx implies that culture is everything humans created in responding to all
nature has created. It is the complicated totality of information, belief, art,
moral values and all other abilities and habits that humans achieved as a
result of community life.
Culture is not only the heritage of society that is transferred from
antecedents to descendants by accumulation but also a characteristic of
societies.
Communities have their own way of life within their culture which is different
from one society to another.
Clothes, foods, music, visual arts and habits are some of the tangible cultural
products.
