I would like a Soviet Park!

Bible Park

“The park, which developers say could draw 1.3 million visitors a year to a site northwest of Murfreesboro, would feature Colonial Williamsburg-like re-enactments of ancient life, theaters for Broadway-sized biblical musicals and a Disney-like “Bible Fly-Through Ride,” using an IMAX screen and seats suspended in mid-air to give visitors an overview of the Holy Lands.”

I, for one, would like to see a Soviet Park with the reenactments of May Day Parades, live queues to buy Romanian shoes, and Zhigulis and Zaporozhets’ zooming through pothole ridden streets. Yeah!

    Well the citizens of the former Yugoslavia have certainly made their nostalgia a business. There is even a theme park ‘Yugoland’. For more please click on the link from the IHT
