Ive posted a little about this in the small news thread but I think its time the park got its own thread as its fairly interesting.
This is a new outdoor park which is opening in Shaoxing, China. it is Phase 2 of the project which started with the indoor section of Oriental Neverland that opened in 2016 - https://rcdb.com/12769.htm

The original park opened with a Mack Spinner but this park seems to be going with a fully Chinese lineup.
The main thing of interest here is the BSA built Sitdown/Inverted racing coaster which has already gone vertical.
The park also already has a BSA built skyloop in place.
Opening should be sometime later this year.

Overall shot of the planned park - Fairly inaccurate but gives an idea. The original indoor park is housed within the big grey buildings at the back

BSA Advert for the model of racing coaster coming here. - The layout will not be the same though.

Some more recent photos from this project.
Coolplay1.jpg
A new mine train ride has appeared which threads through the BSA sky loop twice.

Coolplay2.jpg
The lift hills for the dueling sitdown and inverted coasters is going up. (the pic kind of looks like its single rail but it its just an illusion)

Coolplay3.jpg
Rapids ride in the foreground with the dueling coaster at the back

Coolplay5.jpg
A tangle of supports for the dueling coasters

Coolplay4.jpg
The park appears to be called Cool Play World.

Coolplay6.jpg
A fact which this sign seems to get slightly wrong. I wonder if Chris Martin knows about this :)

More pics and some terrible low res gifs of the park can be found here

They must have spent all the budget on the barrel roll(s) and run out for the first drop. :p

would be cool if I had any faith they'd ever run both tracks at the same time! (let alone dueling...)

I think we can unstick this thread seeing as the park has apparently been open for a year or so.

I mean... The invert looks better? Not good, just better?
Yeah, it looks like it has a halfway decent second half. Halfway, but better than the quarter way of the sit down.
