Small Mistakes That Cost Millions To Fix
Florida Theme Park and Its Collapse – $196 million
Everyone knows that Florida is the home to some of the best theme parks in the United States. Therefore, it makes sense that companies would want to capitalize on that. Well, in 1989 there was the construction of a 75-acre theme park. Located right next to Disneyworld, it was intended to act as a monument to Chinese history and culture.
Upon its opening, Americans were put off by the park and its pro-Chinese communist propaganda. After losing roughly $9 million a year, it eventually closed in 2003.
