Basaran Ulusoy, Chairman of TÜRSAB; “Tourists’ life safety are not in danger”

Basaran Ulusoy stated that there is no extraordinary situation in Turkey that would put the life safety of tourists in danger. Chairman of Turkish Travel Agencies Union (TÜRSAB), Ulusoy mentioned that political and economic crises experienced in Syria and in the world had some negative effect on tourism in Turkey but still that it is foreseen the number of tourists coming to Turkey in 2012 will be about 32 million. What is the status of tourism of Turkey in the world? How has the tourism in Turkey developed in the recent years?

Despite political crises experienced in the Middle eastern countries in 2011 and economic crises experienced in the European countries, in particular in Greece, Tourism in Turkey exceeded 30 million

foreign visitors which was our goal in 2011 and reached 31 million 456 thousand 76. According to data issued by the United Nations World Tourism Organization for the year 2011, Turkey ranks the 6th in the world in terms of international tourist arrival whereas 11th in terms of tourism income. That is, Turkey is among the main leading countries in the world in terms of Tourism. The country has the potentials and capabilities to carry this status further in time. Why is “Turkey” a country for foreign tourists to visit? What kind of attraction does Turkey have for foreign tourists? In what matters we nationwide are ahead of other countries?

Turkey is one of the luckiest countries in the world with extraordinarily various development potential

H a v u z & S auna

with its natural assets and resources, historical heritage, cultural richness and other attractions. Even in its current status our country presents a rich product range with its touristic attractions and experienced, dynamic, developed tourism industry addressing any sort of demands in the world. According to the Tourism Statistics of T端ik for the year 2011 the distribution of expenses of foreign visitors visiting our country according to their types are as follows: Catering :%22.8 Accommodation :%15.8 Health :%1.8 Transport :%8.1 Sports, education, culture :%0.8 Touring Services :%1.3 Other goods and services :%24.7 Clothing and Shoes :%11.2 Souvenirs :%7.0 Carpets, Rugs etc. :%1.9 Other Expenses :%4.6 What kind of influence did the events in Syria have on tourism in Turkey? Are there really negative circumstances that would affect the security of foreign tourists?

The political crisis suffered in Syria and Iran as well as the economic depression suffered in the European countries have naturally had some negative influence on tourism in Turkey. There is no extraordinary status in our country that would put the lives of foreign tourists to risk. How has tourism in Turkey experienced the year 2012? Does it meet the expectations?

We have the official data issued by the Ministry of Tourism and Culture of the Turkish Republic for the first 6 months of the year 2012 regarding the tourism income and the number of tourists visiting our country. According to the data issued by the Ministry of Tourism and Culture of the Turkish Republic the tourism income made from foreign visitors in the January-June period of 2012 decreased by -2,2% of the same period of the previous year to the level of USD 6 billion 582 million 234 thousands. The income obtained from citizens living abroad, however, increased by 2,8% of the same period of the previous year to the level of USD 1 billion 793 million 666 thousands. The decrease rate in the total income is -1,1%. According to data by TR Ministry of Tourism and Culture the number of foreign visitors visiting Turkey in the period of January-June of 2012 shows a decrease by -2.33% compared to the same period of the previous year to the level of 12 million 723 thousand 978.

King Dragon to Rule New Beijing Waterpark

Worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest mall will include giant indoor waterpark with dragon themed water slide

H a v u z & S auna

Dragons rule in China. For thousands of years, in fact, the Chinese people have considered dragons to be a potent and auspicious symbol of power and fortune with special control over water, rainfall, hurricanes and floods. In historic times, the Chinese worshipped dragons as the rulers of moving bodies of water, too, from waterfalls to rivers and seas. With such a fitting backstory, then, it’s no surprise that the owners of a new indoor waterpark in Beijing have chosen a dragon as the theme of a major waterslide attraction. The waterpark, which is currently under construction, at the Great Mall of China (GMOC) will include a variety of slides and cover 23,000 square meters (75,459 square feet) and reach a height of 30 meters (98 feet). And while that in itself may sound expansive, the waterpark and its myriad features are only part of a giant complex that—when completed—will become the largest mall in the World. Shopping, Entertainment, Business and More The Great Mall of China is slated to be the world’s largest integrated entertainment and commercial shopping malls. (The largest to date is in Dubai.) Located in Yanjiao, a city in East Beijing, in the Hebei province, the facility’s plans comprise space for shopping and entertainment offerings that include a waterpark, two theme parks—one “extreme” and another for families—a theater and an aquarium. The site will also include two hotels, a convention hall, office towers and apartments. An indoor monorail will move people throughout the sprawling space. When completed, within the next five years, the complex will cover 5.6 million square meters (18.5 million square feet). Construction is being divided into several phases. Phase one, which has already started, will include the two theme parks and the waterpark. Mall management expect to finish phase one by October 2013. A major attraction of the two-level waterpark (the second floor will be glass-enclosed allowing mall patrons to view inside) will be the King Cobra waterslide, a signature design of waterpark supplier Polin (Istanbul, Turkey). Polin’s Marketing Manager Sohret Pakis describes the ride as “one of the most intense riding experiences in the industry.” Plus, she says, the waterpark’s owners were impressed with its visual impact and appeal. “By theming the slide as a dragon, it ties in perfectly with a powerful symbol recognizable to all Chinese guests who visit the park.” she explains. The core feature of the patent-pending King Cobra is its unique configuration. The ride enables two double tubes to race through a circular path of twists, turns and surprises. The heart-pounding ride continues as riders experience the drop of their lives and then race together before entering the ride’s basin at the same time.

Hav u z & S au n a

Apart from its unique ride path and design configuration, the King Cobra is also the first waterslide to offer its own fiberglass theming, Pakis adds. In addition to the Great Mall of China, the ride is being featured at Six Flags Great Adventure in the United States (Jackson, N.J.) (opening June 2012), Aqualand Frejus in France (opening May 2012), Crystal World in Turkey (June 2012), KermanShah Waterpark in Iran (September 2012), Bugs Waterpark in Indonesia ( October 2012) and Escape Waterpark in Malaysia (October 2012). Attractions That Appeal to Everyone In addition to the King Cobra ride, Polin is installing three other signature rides with special theming at the GMOC: the Space Shuttle waterslide, the Navigatour watercoaster and a triple Blackhole tube slide. Space Shuttle. This new adrenaline-pumping waterslide is available in fully open, fully enclosed and half-closed versions. Exits can be designed as either a pool or a run-out.

• Uphill Navigatour. Riders are accelerated along

this slide via hydro jets and water-injection propulsion. Capable of carrying one or two riders, the ride can be installed to take guests from floating queues in leisure rivers or from towers into steep drops.

• Blackhole. An enclosed tube slide, this ride features a variety of special effects including one of unique, changing color effects inside the slide’s fiberglass tube.

Additional attractions at the park will include two speed slides, three extreme slides, a racing slide, water-play structure, wave pool, Jacuzzi, leisure river, rapid river and relaxation pool. Specific attractions to be featured are: • Speed slides: The Freefall and Kamikaze slides feature a 28-inch by 40-inch (711-mm x

1,016-mm) slide with a 2,006-liters-per-minute (530-gallon-per-minute) flow rate that can handle 120 people per hour. Their differences: The Freefall employs one heart-stopping free-fall experience, while the Kamikaze features a slide path with multiple drops.

• Extreme slides: The Space Hole will provide nu-

merous sensations for riders, who will first fly through a 23-meter (75-feet) enclosed flume, then ride the centrifugal force around a huge open bowl and finally make a giant splash upon exit. The Space Boat combines features of the Space Hole and another Polin ride, the Black Hole, an enclosed 70-meter (230-feet) tube slide that features special changing-color lighting effects. The Space Boat uses tubes that accommodate single or double riders. The Turbo Lance puts riders first through a steep drop before being propelled vertically uphill. On the reverse path, they ride a bump before ending in a splash pool. In all, riders will travel nearly 34 meters (111.5 feet) along the Turbo Lance path.

• Racing slides: The Windigo begins in an enclosed Aquatube slide and transforms into a high-speed multiracing mat slide.

• Water play structure: The Aquatower 100, with

a pirate theme, gives little ones tot-sized waterslides along with valves, water cannons and other attractions to keep them busy. Pool depths range from 0.4 meters (1.3 feet).

The water-play structure is particularly important because, Sila Gokalp, Landscape Architect, Polin explains, “Children are considered the most important guests of the park.” Thus, the facility will also feature three zones focused on young ones. Each zone will have its own pool and kid-sized slides to ensure one area doesn’t get overly crowded. Throughout all three zones, more than 50 different water-play attractions will allow children to splash, squirt and spray. The facility is being funded by Berjaya Great Mall Co. Ltd. (Hebei, China). CEO of BGMOC, Kevin Tan says the waterpark is an integral part of the overall facility’s success. “I’m very excited about the project.” he notes. More on the Great Mall of China Berjaya Great Mall of China Co. is a subsidiary of Berjaya Land Bhd., a subsidiary of Berjaya Corp. Bhd. (BCorp). For more information, visit www.berjaya.com.

King Cobra Unleashed on U.S. Six Flags Hurricane Harbor becomes home to first King Cobra waterslide in the United States

The King Cobra may not be native to the United States. But the king-sized snake-themed waterslide from Polin Waterparks and Pool Systems (Istanbul, Turkey) recently slithered into a new home there in Jackson, N.J. On July 24, the extreme racing waterslide unleashed its venomous fury on guests at Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, enticing them with stomach-churning speeds and adrenaline-pumping drops.

Finding New Habitats

Polin—a world leader in the aquatics industry—installed the first King Cobra waterslide in Europe before exporting the massive serpent to Turkey and Russia. This year, in addition to the New Jersey installation, the company— which has designed, manufactured and installed waterparks in 80 countries around the globe— will create new habitats for the sinuous slide in Asia, Europe and the Middle East. Sohret Pakis, Polin’s Marketing Manager, said: “We knew that waterslide fans were greatly anticipating when King Cobra would be introduced in the United States. The ride had already gotten a lot of attention and interest from fans in other parts of the world. The question was, who would be the first to offer this unique ride in the U.S.?” Polin was pleased to work out an arrangement for Six Flags Hurricane Harbor to be that site. “We are very excited about King Cobra’s first U.S. installation,” Pakis said. “We are so glad and proud that it is Six Flags Great Adventure.”

Together, Six Flags Great Adventure, Wild Safari and Hurricane Harbor create America’s largest regional theme park. Hurricane

Harbor waterpark, located on 45 acres, features more than 20 high-speed thrill slides, a family water playground, a million-gallon wave pool and a half-milelong leisure river. A Menacing Impression

Polin’s supersized cobra version is no less threatening than the real one. Bold red, black and white scales provide an imposing veneer over the exterior and interior of the slide’s massive 50-foot (15.24-meter) height and 260foot (790-meter) length. The core feature of King Cobra is its unique configuration that enables two riders to race along a circular path filled with twists, turns and surprises. Water pressure of 3,875 gallons (14,668 liters) per minute catapults riders through open and closed tubes before they brave a heart-pounding plunge nearly 25 feet (8 meters) down a 50-degree slope.

The Twisted Racer is the latest in many additions that Polin has provided to Aqualand waterparks in Europe these past few years.
