Godzilla ride in Japanese theme park

Jurassic Park-themed attractions might have a monopoly on amusement park big-lizard experiences around the world, but Godzilla is throwing its hat in the ring in a big way. At the Nijigen no Mori theme park on Japan’s Awaji Island, a Godzilla-themed area called “Godzilla Interception Operation” is set to debut in 2020 featuring a 65-foot-tall, 82-feet-wide monster. This will make the park the first place in the world to have a permanent, full-sized replica of Godzilla.

The area will have several activities available to guests, including a shooting game where you can battle Godzilla yourself, and a zip line that brings you right into the lizard’s mouth. Each activity is called a “mission” wherein visitors are enlisted to help defeat Godzilla.

“Godzilla Interception Operation” will coincide with next year’s release of Godzilla vs. Kong, the newest Godzilla movie.
