Bakken, a unique amusement park with a wooden rollercoaster, Ghost Train and Viking Ship Dragon...

The attractions I wrote in the title and many more can be found at the world oldest amusement park - danish Bakken. The wooden roller coaster made a great impression on me. Most of the structures, apart from the tracks, are made of wood, which looks spectacular from the outside, and you can hear specific noises while riding.

It also creates a special atmosphere, especially when, like me, you go to Bakken when it's dark.

When you come to Bakken, you will notice that there are no big brands or neon signs as they are banned because of the historical value and unique location. Instead, you will be greeted by colourful wooden structures, small independent shop owners, quirky stalls, and free entrance. But, as you will discover, the main attraction is still the park’s many rides, including the 82-year-old wooden rollercoaster.

There are many places in Bakken where you can win something if you show your dexterity. Some are very strange, e.g. here you sit on the toilet and aim water at the figures taking a shower ;)

I think there is something for everyone in Bakken - there are cars to race in, houses of fear, what I wrote about a moment ago - places where you can win something. You can also ride carousels. Some spin very fast. I tried this one with a friend and I thought that I could not stand it.

There are a lot of lovely restaurants. We tried some asian meals and vaffels. I don'r recommend you to eat vaffels there, they were too sweet. I like sweet things, but for me it was too much. Other things I ate there where - like that asian meals, were awesome.

This attraction was also funny, after throwing a ping-pong ball with a painted funny face into the hole, you could win a packet of chips. Unfortunately, I was not lucky and did not win anything.
