Parque de Atracciones

Now in its fourth decade, this lively park on the edge of the Casa de Campo boasts an enticing array of attractions aimed predominantly at youngsters. These include a toboggan slide, a carousel, pony rides, an adventure into outer space, a walk through a transparent maze, a visit to a jungle, a motor-propelled series of cars disguised as a tail-wagging dachshund puppy, and a gyrating whirligig clutched in the tentacles of an octopus named El Pulpo. The park also has diversions for young-at-heart adults, such as the exhilarating Montaña Rusa (roller coaster) and the American-designed Lanzadera (literally "launcher") which drops you 180 stomach-churning feet (55 meters) in a matter of seconds.
