Gulliver, the journey for which you are famous would sadly be your last. You survived the seas and crawled upon land, only to rest your weary head a short while before the bulldozers rolled in. You inspired us to venture so far and though your life in the mountains was short, not even 10 years, the memories of your prone figure resplendent below the watchful gaze of Fuji will always remain.

RIP Gulliver's Kingdom, Yamanashi Japan - 2007

Arg! I always wanted to see that in person. C'est la vie.

I've been to Lilliput. It's a place in Czech Republic under the secret alias of Ceske Kurmov. It's where most of 'Hostel' was filmed. You should go and do that abandoned powerstation (which is kinda closer to Ceske Budejovice) ... NOW

It's a shame that such a stunning attraction is done away with. Nevertheless, it is a practical and logical step to take as there's no point in wasting more money and resources if the attraction is not doing well in terms of financial. I would love to visit the theme park if it opens up again though.
