AQUA PARK

Water is one of the most powerful tools a designer has to work with. People are drawn to it. It plays to all of our most basic emotions and it fills us with a gratification that exceeds the delight of the senses.

The magic of water:-

As landscape architects, water has always been an important element in our work. Whether it’s a reflecting pool at resort, the focus of a urban park or a splash fountain in a a playground or plaza, we like water’s ability to change the way people experience the places we create. Besides being peaceful and refreshing, water is also recreational – it is possibly the world’s first playground. Water is constantly changing in form, mood & color. It is beautiful & delightful.

In our early work, we felt satisfaction when we saw people playing in our water features, even when they weren’t supposed to. From then on, it was a natural progression for us to start designing Waterparks, then to make it part of our core business and finally to become leading Waterpark innovators.

Waterparks certainly have come of age, from a time in the late 1970s when pioneers like George Millay couldn’t get their ideas taken seriously, to today, when outdoor Waterparks dot the landscape and are regarded as must-have sister facilities to amusement parks. Indoor Waterparks, meanwhile, are popping up everywhere. Now, Waterparks are conquering a new frontier: destination resorts.

A Waterpark or Waterpark is an amusement park that features water play areas, such as swimming pools, water slides, splash pads, spray grounds (water play grounds), lazy rivers, or other recreational bathing, swimming, and bare footing environments. Waterpark is more current states of development so be equipped with some type of artificial surfing or body boarding environment such as a wave pool or Flow Rider.

Department of Tourism, Government of Assam, the agency responsible for promoting tourism in Assam has been at the forefront in attracting large number of tourists to the state. Being ranked as the fourth most popular destination for tourism among states of India, the number of tourists visiting Assam (both international and domestic) are increasing over the years.

The State has decided to bring tourist activities under the priority sector and has come out with a host of new plans including inviting private companies to establish resorts and privatizing the managements of government guest houses. The Government has been actively creating infrastructure in tourist places so that entrepreneurs could open resorts, hotels, amusement parks etc. One of the major attractions offered to entrepreneurs was to make available government land in all places barring in Cities, at 20 percent of the market value for opening resorts/hotels and for carrying out tourist related activities.

While a Waterpark can be either privately owned or municipally owned, success is often measured differently in the public versus the private sector. For municipally owned Waterparks, a successful park is defined as one that earns enough through revenues to cover the daily operating costs, provides a surplus to fund expansion, helps fund other facilities within the city’s parks and recreation system, and/or funds the repair costs of existing municipal pools.

Park formats are broadly classified as amusement parks, theme parks and Waterparks. According to the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA).
