Kunming, China, March 5, (THAINDIAN NEWS) In China’s Kunming Town a Dwarf theme Park has been let open for the visitors which is becoming one of the top tourist draws. More than 100 dwarfs are employed in the park who dress up like different characters to amuse visitors. These Dwarfs belong to a mountain community of the southern part of China.
The park which was let open for public visit last year has attracted many tourists and locals. The Dwarf Theme Park is the brainchild of Chen Mingjing, a successful Chinese businessman who has reportedly said that he wanted to do something good for mankind. This Dwarf Park, he says employs more than 100 dwarfs who would have otherwise found it difficult to get work outside. Chen Mingjing, according to reports, plans to increase the area of the park to 13,000 acres and has taken special care to design everything in the present park. The park will have in future everything according to him but in a mini size. It will be like a fairy tale land according to Chen Mingjing.
The entry fee to the park is 9 USD and by paying the amount one can get into the “Kingdom of the Little People”. From fireman to police to dancing fairies and princesses all are little human beings busy amusing visitors with their performances, dramas, dancing and singing. The human rights activists however have condemned the “Kingdom of the Little People” by saying that it is nothing more than a “Freak Show” which debases the position of the dwarfs all the more.
