A major investment
and opportunity The new park is being developed by Dutch company, Global City Holdings in co-operation with strategic partner Wund Unternehmensgruppe which currently operates four large water parks in Germany. Its most well- known facility is Therme Erding, Europe's largest indoor swimming pool with a removable roof. Therme Erding is also recognised as the second-largest thermal bath complex in Europe at 145,000 square meters (1,560,767 square feet) and around 4,000 daily guests. Global City Holdings is making the Park of Poland
project one of its highest priorities and expects the facility to create a new industry in Poland and employ 1,100 people. The features 15 of Polin Waterpark’s signature water slides, in addition to a tropical pool and large spa and wellness centre. The Park of Poland - with a budget of €180 million
(US$190.6) - is being designed to appeal to guests of all ages. Further investments will be completed in the next six years with additional entertainment options that - like Suntago Waterworld - will be open all year.
