The Lost City of Sun City, South Africa

"Without action, dreams will never be great." Korsner's grand plan finally started in July 1978, and officially opened on February 7 1979. Sun City caused a sensation after its opening, and tourists from all over the world flocked to it. The 340 rooms in Sun City Hotel are simply not enough. With the popularity of Sun City gradually opening up, the number of tourists in Sun City has also increased at an alarming rate every year. In this case, 1990, Korsner began to build a legendary city within a city, that is, the lost city.

There is an old legend about this lost city. According to legend, before the western civilization, nomadic people from Central Africa built an unprecedented great city in Sun Valley, which was amazing for its beautiful scenery. However, a devastating earthquake later covered the city with molten slurry and became the legendary lost city. In order to realize this dream, Korsner spent 830 million rand (about 465,438+1100 million ringgit), transplanted 654,380,000 trees and plants, and built an artificial rain forest, swamp area, trickling streams and rapids. It took 28 months and cost 654,38+0,992,650.

Speaking of the Lost City, we can't help but introduce the six-star Palace Hotel, which has 338 rooms and is listed as one of the world 10 hotels. Palace Hotel is the fourth hotel in Sun City and the most luxurious and expensive hotel. It is not so much an African castle as a hotel. The architectural design and sculpture of the hotel exterior are full of African rough and psychedelic style. Many places take wild animals as the theme, and the relief on the furniture in the room shows a unique African style with various animal shapes, ranging from small things such as stationery pencils to African styles.

1992 after the opening of the lost city, the strange and rhythmic entertainment world in the city has become one of the purposes for tourists from all over the world to visit Sun City. It is said that more than 3 million tourists come to Sun City every year, and the number is increasing. Every scene in Lost City completely imitates the appearance of the legendary ancient city. Broken and collapsed stone pillars and giant doors can be seen everywhere, which makes people fall into the trap of just visiting and entering ancient times.
