Happy Valley amusement park's opening delayed

A rocky start for Shanghai's newest amusement park means that Happy Valley in Sheshan will be delaying its official opening until August 16th. The park opened yesterday for a limited amount of members and other "privileged" customers, but crowds ultimately left disappointed after numerous mishaps - including long lines and a severe lack of dining, first-aid and other facilities. In addition, the park's landmark wooden roller coaster was forced to stop seven times and several visitors were hurt when a sign fell on their heads. OCT Enterprises Co., the company which operates the park, has cited the approaching typhoon as the reason for delaying the park's opening. Source: Shanghai Daily
