Review:
Kings Island Amusement Park is the Midwest's largest amusement park, spanning 364 acres throughout the city of Mason, approximately half an hour north of Cincinnati. The park was opened to the public in 1972 and showcases more than 100 rides and attractions, including 14 world-class roller coasters. Its iconic Racer wooden roller coaster, which appeared in an episode of The Brady Bunch, is credited with sparking the revival of modern wooden roller coasters in the 1970s. Other major attractions include coasters such as Diamondback, Banshee, the Beast, and Mystic Timbers, which received Amusement Today's Golden Ticket Award as the Best New Ride of 2017. A ?-scale replica of the Eiffel Tower serves as the park's anchor attraction and can be ascended via elevator as an observation tower. Annual special events include the beautiful Winterfest celebration, which drapes the park in millions of Christmas lights.
