With a regulated temperature constant no matter the weather, be sure to feel utmost comfort when exploring this hot- spot.


Visit Beijing Watercube Water Park!


Previously known as the Beijing Aquatics Centre during the Olympics back in 2008, what was a large swimming pool for professional competitors has now been renovated into a fun-packed leisure hub for the public. Built with a balance of safety and adrenaline in mind, this water park is a guaranteed crowd pleaser. Swim, Splash and Slide because you’ll never get tired as the largest water park in Asia features a wave pool, lazy river, spa area and 13 water slides and rides, including the Bullet Bowl, Speed Slide and Tornado.

Try the renowned ‘Aqualoop’ which features a 40ft drop of exhilaration as  your body swerves round loops and bends before you’re thrust back into the water.
