Saint Cyr Golf France

The unique visible theme park, aptly named Parc du Futuroscope, spans over 130 acres of land dedicated to entertaining, and inadvertently teaching, the many millions of tourists that visit each year.  Built five miles north to the city of Poitiers, in France, Futuroscope was opened to public in 1987 and the park is celebrating 20 years of its existence in 2007.  With new exciting attractions added to the park’s already impressive range of visible themes, travellers are sure to have a delightful day when they visit.  

Being a French theme park, most of the attractions are in French but those unable to comprehend the language are catered through infrared interpretation headsets which are provided for free if you leave your ID at the desk as a guarantee.  There are some attractions that may only be enjoyed in French ; one is The Forest of Dreams, which, in fact, is a laser show so being in French only is not a problem, as dreams are comprehensible in all languages alike.  

The attractions use visible and audio affects to make you a part of the scene ; the powerful hydraulic jacks utilized in the dash for Atlantis take you thru the lost city at a high-speed and you are sucked into the experience with the dome formed screen around you, manufacturing a 3D world that’s made even more plausible with the employment of liquid crystal glasses that give the feel of an enchanting underwater setting.  

that is only 1 attraction though, Futuroscope holds at least 20 mind boggling, yet glorious shows that give you the sensation of movement while you experience different worlds, whether it’s your hazard on Akryls or the story of the Dance with bots, you’ll leave the ride feeling you’ve lived the sensations without having left your seat.  The educational side of Futuroscope not only aims at entertaining but also gives us a larger comprehension of lives we have not experienced and creates empathy as well ; a voyage into the Dark is one such attraction that lets you briefly live the life of the visually diminished who concentrate more on the other senses than visual, to gather a feeling of direction.  

Set right beside the Futuroscope is The Quality Alteora Hotel which, incidentally, is a {wonderful great~ good} place for those visiting the park to stay at during their visit.  At about fifteen minutes drive from the Poitiers airfield, and a short walk from the Futuroscope TGV train station, communing to the hotel as well as the theme park is straightforward and convenient.  The 100 rooms are spacious and offer all modern amenities with the added pleasure of a swimming pool.  Your food will be served besides the pool as well , by the La Piscine Resturant.  You may also enjoy a game of golf at The Saint Cyr golf Course which is not far either.
