Combining thrill rides with wonderful animal attractions, a day at Busch Gardens
will delight everyone in the family. Also known as "The Dark Continent,"
the theme park is divided into nine different areas fashioned after locations in
Africa. Morocco, at the park entrance, features shops, eateries and three theaters
presenting great live shows. The Great Ape

Domain, a three-acre
habitat of Lowland Gorillas and chimpanzees, can be found in Nairobi. The largest
collection of the park's animals can be found on the Serengeti Plain, where over
800 animals roam in a natural habitat setting. The highlight of Egypt, the newest
section of Busch Gardens, is Montu, the southeast's longest and tallest inverted
roller coaster. Timbuktu offers roller coasters and other midway rides, and Congo
is host to Kumba, the southeast's fastest steel roller coaster. Stanleyville features
two rides guaranteed to cool you off on a hot day; the Stanley Falls Log Flume and
the Tanganyika Tidal Wave. The Bird Gardens and Land of the Dragons, an adventure
play area for children, complete a tour of Busch Gardens.
