Home of the famous Dragon Khan, this amusement park, possibly the most famous in Spain, is not so far from Valencia. You can reach it by train (with the Barcelona line, stops in Salou or Port Aventura itself) or in about 2:30 hours by car.

PortAventura World is divided into five thematic areas: Mediterrània, Polynesia, China, Mexico and Far West, as well as Ferrari Land, a theme park dedicated to the famous Italian racing team (separate ticket).

Among the most visited roller coasters are Shambhala, one of the highest roller coasters in Europe with a height of 76 meters and a speed of 134 km/h, and Furius Baco, which accelerates from 0 to 135 km/h in 3.5 seconds, making it one of the fastest in Europe.
