With the entry fee priced at Rs 250 for adults and Rs 200
for children for a one-hour memorable ‘freezing’ experience, Snow
World, the first ever snow theme park in the country, is all set
to enthrall the visitors and the denizens of Hyderabad from Monday.
Located at the heart of the city, beside the historical city’s famous
landmarks of Hussain Sagar and Indira park, the 17,000 sqft family
entertainment centre is constructed on a sprawling two-acre area.
But is there any skiing?
Besides housing a gamut of fun-packed features including fun rides,
games, snow-view restaurant, indoor go-carting(to be shortly added)
and other attractions, the theme park is designed to accommodate
300 persons at a time with a maximum capacity of 2,400 people a
day.

Gupta, the chairman, and M Venkateswara Rao, the managing director
of Ocean Park Multitech Limited, the promoters of India’s third
largest Ocean Park which was started in 1997 at Hyderabad, hoped
the same success with the new venture.
The Cryozone
Designed by renowned architect Nisish Roy, the snow dome area, which
is called the ‘cryozone’, features kids snow play area, snow wars,
snow tube slide, ice bumping cars, merry-go-round, ice skating and
ice sculptures.
The snow playground houses a 300-degree mountain horizon with snow
and blue sky. Artificial alpine huts, trees and animals placed around
the area completes the winter snow experience.
Visitors will pass through 2-3 zones with decreasing temperatures
before being introduced to the cryozone which has a minus 5 degrees
temperature for proper acclimatisation, besides being served with
hot soup and special suits, the promoters said.
