The size of the Dragon Ball Theme Park is over 500,000 square meters!
This boasts an area larger than 10 Tokyo Domes and is on a scale comparable to the vision for the Gaming & eSports District.

Many landmarks such as Kame House, Capsule Corporation, and Beerus's Planet appeared throughout the long history from the Dragon Ball TV anime to Dragon Ball Super, which aired until 2018.
The Dragon Ball Theme Park consists of seven areas, and it is said that buildings symbolizing the series are being recreated within them.

Furthermore, more than 30 attractions including five groundbreaking rides will be developed.
A giant Shenron with a total height of 70 meters will also be built in the center of the park, and a roller coaster that passes through its interior is planned for construction.

Of course, hotels and restaurants are also fully equipped.
A world of Dragon Ball that you cannot explore in a single day... I mean, a world so vast it cannot be covered in one day, is planned to unfold.
Qiddiya is a giga-project that Saudi Arabia is tackling at a national level.
Until a short while ago, it was a country that was difficult even to enter, but it is now aiming to become a tourism powerhouse under the Saudi Vision 2030.
If a theme park that recreates the globally popular Dragon Ball in reality is completed, its buzz and popularity are likely to be tremendous.
Let's look forward to further news!
