Phantasialand
Germany's top theme park in Brühl, just south of Cologne, with six finely crafted themed zones and highly rated coasters
Phantasialand sits in Brühl, about 20 km south of Cologne. Opened in 1967, it is one of Germany's most popular theme parks. The park is divided into six themed areas (Berlin, China, Mexico, Africa, Mystery and Fantasy), each with exceptionally detailed scenery. Highlights include the launch coaster Taron, the inverted Black Mamba, the Klugheim stone village and the F.L.Y. flying coaster. Tickets start at around €60. Buying online in advance is cheaper, and it's worth setting aside a full day. Take the shuttle bus from Brühl station, or combine your visit with Augustusburg Palace on the same day.
