Dream Island, the largest indoor theme park in Europe, opened in Moscow on Saturday.

Nine theme areas with numerous roller coasters, food courts and shops on the so-called city promenade, and a scenic park were opened for guests.

"It's not just an amusement park, but a whole touristic cluster, as we have also built a city promenade, outside of the theme park itself, where any family member can find something to entertain themselves, including concert halls, cafes, bars and restaurants," said Dream Island board of directors chairman Amiran Mutsoev.

According to the park's press centre, Dream Island is on the same property as the abandoned '60th anniversary of the October Revolution' park, and covers 300,000 square meters, making it the largest indoor amusement park in Europe.

The main characters of all nine themed areas are taken from Russian traditional fairytales as well as famous Western cartoons. For example, the castle of the fairytale 'The Snow Queen' stands side by side with Hotel Transylvania, while Mowgli's jungle - with added dinosaurs - the neighbor area is Buratino's Village.

In total, 27 roller coasters, which "are unique in both Europe and Russia," are planned to be installed in the theme park, as its press centre reports.
