Reuse, Reduce and Recycle!!!


 

Wunderland :).  Wundering what made investor believe a former nuclear power plant would make a great amusement park :).  This is Wunderlanad Kalkar amusment park located in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.   This 'almost' nuclear power plant is now an amazing place to enjoy a crazy cooling tower swing or maybe climb up the outside of the cooling tower on it's rock climbing wall. 
The power plant never officially opened due to construction problems and protests, so why put this amazing place to waste.  Reuse it! Recycle it! Expand it!  And rumor has it that the park was purchased by a Dutch entrepreneur, Hennie van der Most, for a whopping three US dollars..$3.00!  Today is has over 600,00 visitor a year and is safer than ever.  I am thinking the locals are very happy now :).
