Italy’s oldest theme park reopens after being derelict for eight years
Italy’s oldest fairground attraction, the Luneur Theme Park in Rome reopened this week to local fanfare and with a fresh makeover after lying idle since 2008.
The playground was a Roman favourite during its previous life spanning 54 years and was sadly missed when it closed eight years ago due to financial and legal problems. The Local reports that the new version Luneur – which is called after the EUR district of Rome where it is located – will particularly focus on catering for youngsters up to 13 years of age.
