Ամբողջովին նոր աշխարհ. Disney Land-ի նոր Avatar Land-ը՝ բացառիկ ֆոտոշարքով

Lifestyle

Dailymail-ի փոխանցմամբ, այս տարվա մայիսի վերջին Walt Disney-ն ԱՄՆ Ֆլորիդա նահանգում գտնվող Disney Land զվարճանքների այգու Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom տարածքում կբացի Avatar Land-ը, որը կկրկնի «Ավատար» ֆիլմի տիեզերքը: Այս նոր այգու շինարարության ընդհանուր բյուջեն կազմում է մոտ 500 միլիոն դոլար:

Աղբյուրը տեղեկացնում է, որ Avatar Land-ն աչքի է ընկնում իր 3D հետաքրքիր ատրակցիոններով, լուսավորված անտառով, ատրակցիոններով, լողացող քարե կղզիներով և հսկայական կապույտ այլմոլորակայիններով:

Հատկանշական է, որ այս այգու այցելուները կկարողանան օգտվել Flight of Passage «Անցումային թռիչք» կոչվող ատրակցիոնից, որը հնարավորություն կտա «հեծնել» ֆիլմի հերոսներից մեկին՝ տեղափոխվելով ֆիլմի տիեզերք: Բացի այս, կգործի հատուկ հավելված, որի միջոցով այգու այցելուները հնարավորություն կունենան նախապես պատվիրել իրենց նախընտրած ճաշացանկը:

Disney World's new Pandora-World of Avatar land opens in Florida in late May at Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom. It cost a half-billion dollars to build

Fly high! The marquee attraction is Flight of Passage, where a 3-D simulator plunges riders into a cinematic world. Guests will feel like they're riding on the back of a banshee (pictured), a bluish, gigantic, winged predator that resembles something out of the Jurassic era

Wearing 3-D glasses and straddling what resembles a stationary motorcycle, riders are strapped in, then the lights go out, a screen in front lights up and they're swooped into a world of blue, gigantic aliens called Na'vi (pictured), with moon-filled skies, plunging waterfalls, jumping marine animals and towering ocean waves.

The enormous blue Na'vi aliens from the 'Avatar' movie appear sparingly, really just on Flight of Passage and a second attraction called Na'vi River Journey. Before going on Flight of Passage, visitors walk through a tunnel in a faux mountain until they stumble upon a laboratory that includes a Na'vi (pictured) floating in a tank

The ride provides an enchanting and intoxicating five minutes that touches all the senses. Blasts of air and spritzes of mist hit riders' faces

Animated land: 'The character is being portrayed and played by the place itself and that's different than a set,' said Joe Rohde, the design and production leader of Pandora -World of Avatar

Natural feel: Much of Pandora, at least during the daytime, is hard to distinguish from the rest of Animal Kingdom, Disney's almost 20-year-old zoological-themed park with lush landscaping, an emphasis on conservation and a Noah's ark range of animals

Almost lifelike: A lot of the plants were man-made but to the untrained eye that is nearly impossible to tell

A whole new world! At night, though, Pandora transforms into a sea of color with glowing lights on artificial plants and even in the pavement

The bioluminescent forest dazzles those hoping to explore the world

Overhead scenery on the Na'Vi River Journey also glow in the dark

'It's not as simple as a guy in a costume painted blue walking around out here,' Rohde said of the aliens. 'We know they are culturally present around us but we will meet them when we go on an excursion'

Alien food: Disney also is testing out a new way to order food at Pandora. Before going to the park, visitors can pull up a menu on the My Disney Experience mobile app, order lunch and go about visiting the park. When it's time to eat hours later, they can go to the canteen, tap on an app a button that notifies the cooks they are present. Several minutes later their food will be ready in a special line.

Disney has been building attractions themed on movies since Disneyland opened in 1955 with rides inspired by Snow White, Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland. Often, as with Pandora (pictured), the attractions open years after the movies debut

'We were trying to get as close as possible to fool the eye,' said Zsolt Hormay, a Disney creative executive

At the entrance, visitors hear a cacophony of bird chirps and animal cries. A circle of drums connected to faux tree roots allows visitors to drum and then get a response of drumming or pulsing lights. A water creature floats in a pond at the exhibit

Pandora-World of Avatar isn't tied to a narrative from the film but rather tells a story set in the future, after humans degraded the jungle through industrial folly and a resurgence of nature overtakes the human-built environment. That theme is a recurring architectural motif, for example with a beverage stand and cantina made to look like they were built for industry by humans but then overrun by plant life

Deception: The focal points are a 135-foot (41-meter) mountaintop where Flight of Passage is located as well as 'floating mountains' that appear to be suspended in air but are actually made of concrete

Getting creative: Engineers use tricks to make the park appear bigger than it is. The artificial foliage gets smaller as it goes higher on the mountain to give it the illusion of distance.

Lisa Girolami, Disney Imagineer and executive producer of Pandora - The World of Avatar poses in front of a map of the exhibit

Jon Landau, executive producer of the original movie, says he hopes Pandora does for visitors what the film did for movie-goers. 'I hope when people come to Pandora and their eyes will be open and they will look at the world a little differently when they go back across the bridge,' Landau said
