Tropical Islands Resort in a German Blimp Hangar
Vložit
- čas přidán 24. 07. 2024
- Tropical Islands Resort is Europe's largest tropical holiday resort, situated in the world's largest blimp hangar in Germany.
The Resort is actually located, on the site of a former Soviet Military Air Base in Krausnick, Germany, inside a hangar built originally to house zeppelin airships, designed to haul long-distance cargo.
This gargantuan hangar is huge, and is the biggest free-standing hall in the world., it is 1,181 feet long, 689 feet wide, and 351 feet tall. To put that in perspective, you can fit inside eight football fields and the Statue of Liberty, or you could slide the Eiffel tower in on it’s side.
The rainforest is said to be the biggest indoor rainforest replica in the world, and is home to 50,000 plants of 600 different species, plus various exotic birds, turtles and fish, there is also a 3,000 square metres Sea with a 200-metre-long beach that stretches along its shoreline.
If you are interested in going, you can expect to pay about $49 euros for a day tick for per adult, and about $120 euro if you are staying the night.
Thanks for watching

Ah yes, The Truman Show Jim Carrys one and only good movie, point.
Sometimes you just need that warmer, humid climate in the middle of winter. A genius idea instead of tearing it down.
Right? Canada needs these too on big abandoned building with opened areas like this
@@ryanstock7094 eh buddy, they do
So nice to find a positive post on CZcams!
I swear this place is from my childhood dreams
No joke! All its missing is a massive bouncy castle.

@@Allthingspoll ohhh.. haha
@K K K OK yeppp.. a big bouncy castle that has slides that leads to a pool.. I am talking ginormous. Lol
I think it is a good idea and it is better than having an old building decaying and becoming an eye sore. Of course it is not Hawaii or the Caribbean, but if you don't have the money and the time to take your family of four on a trip around the world, I think this is a good option. They probably employ a lot of people as well, which is good for that particular region's economy year round. Just my opinion, you don't have to agree with it.
7 days are 340 euros which is very convenient
I agree
Tele Opinions ancap as fuck. Instead of leaving the panzer to decay, I should buy one and maintain it myself
Turning an eyesore into a mini paradise is dope! Even the buildings around are neat. Must be incredible to climate control... 😮
More northern countries need to be doing this. If enough did this, it could actually lower the demand on tourist sites like Bali, Thailand, etc... which will then lower those prices as well. The US has tons of theme parks, but no enclosed ones... Game changer!
I wonder if they still get up at 6am to put their towels on the sunbeds in that place????? 😂
Yeah evryday 😂
Nope...because when they get up at 06:00 ,they find the sunbeds ,mostly and already, occupied by the Brits.Who are still asleep on the Sunbeds... drunk af, covered by their own vomit. And the remaining Sunbeds occupied with towels from Brits that allready got up at 05:00 .
The Resort is open 24/7, if you want a sunbed you would have to fight of sleeping germans ^^

They also opend a outdoor area with pools and slides in 2018, of course only open during the summer, but it is even bigger now
@Viktor Sandhagen New Old Brandenburg, Spreewald
@Viktor Sandhagen New Old 1h ride from Berlin
I was there xD
I went there from the UK last year and stayed overnight. Outdoor sections were open in April, though we were lucky and had good weather. One of the best water parks I've been to - and I've been to a lot. Would also recommend Area 47 in Austria, and Galaxy Erding near Munich looks awesome too (will be there in summer)
I was there at night because on daytime it is to expensive. It was verry great and its not so far from Berlin. So when you make holidays in Berlin you can make a trip to Tropical Islands you only drive 45minutes to this place.
What a cool structure. Soooo big!
there are videos on their official channel of people parachuting inside it onto the beach, that's how big it is
Roadkill Raccoon Watch Carol Capel's video. It's all fake.
Ana Gomes it’s not all fake at all, my wife has been and said it’s amazing.
thats what she said
Canada needs this with our crappy weather
Exactly, they should turn the useless Olympic Stadium in Montreal into that . With Montreal winters, I bet you that'll make a lot of money, and you can make it 20 times bigger inside of that.
That's why you freaking travel!
$$$@@justicewarrior9187
In British Columbia and Alberta, even in late June and August, I had to wear waterproof and heated gear. That was a tough bit of motorcycling.
@@justicewarrior9187 that cost money. Canada needs a place for us to go everyday and get some light, heat green. We have high rates of depression.
Looks awesome I should bring my tiger plushie
no plushies allowed
I've been there 3 times and I loved it, I loved how the peacocks walked freely around. And the warm sand but there were insects in it. The very first time I was there the air was very suffocating and it was hot. You could smell the wood and the trees. Every day it was something new to do and try you did not get bored. In the nighttime, you could go to a club or maybe a spa or watch a movie on a big screen
Get the salamanders roaming problem solved
I imagine Moonbases and space stations will be like this in the future for crew morale, species preservation, air recycling and fresh produce.
It's how I imagine future cities will be on earth after the ww3. Domes and wastelands.
zaltmanbleroze you seen ErgoProxy?
Exactly what i was thinking it would be a great mars habitat.
🤣🤣🤣 Yeah but first they have go too the moon😂
No one has ever been to the moon. Massive deception. Can't get past the van allen radiation belts...
Would be awesome if they could project the day sky with clouds and night sky with stars and the moon 🌚 to complete the experience
In time I'm sure that will happen.
Wonderful example of ingenuity,middle of the winter rainforest vacations, brilliant.
Smart Germans
All of the beach towels are ShamWow's
In Poland 2019 will be open the largest New water park in Europe.

Think we shall give most of the credits to the malaysian corporation Tanjong.
Hesandm No.. germans will be always better
90-day period I agree even German women’s can ride like their strong build cars
Some say bear grills is still exploring this place 😂😁
This is what the future holds for all humanity if we don’t take care of the real islands and forest we hold today
Just for context: the building was built for a project called „Cargo Lifter“. It was an ultra-heavy-cargo project, whereby airships were planned to transport cargo of up to 1,000 tons heavy. A German house maker even pre-ordered two of the airships to distribute entire full-brick houses across Europe. The project however was completely mis-planned and poorly managed, leading the Cargo Lifter to never make it to the market. The project was ended in 2001, leaving this huge building empty in the middle of nowhere.
So who paid for and built this thing ?
saved my classwork, legend
i thouht making this huge investment for the resort alone would never be worth it. this clears it up
How wonderful ! I salute the imagination and hard work of whoever dreamed this up! When there is something magnificent that is not being used anymore,you should use it for something else,not tear it down. Bravo !
I love the "bye bye" at the end!
If you can't bring people to Fiji you can bring Fiji to the People 😍😍 Love this Much love from Fiji 🇫🇯 Bula Vinaka❤
This is really quite a cool idea, and fascinating to see just how well it was pulled off - I'm from the UK, but I definitely want to visit!
this is a new way to attract tourists to come
it's a genius idea to build like this . . .
awesome jobs
added like no: 1.7K more . . .
thanks
Winter getaway without leaving Germany.
It was the only place ive been, where i got anxiety by looking up. :D
It combines the best elements of a holiday and visiting a trade show
Since 2004 it is there... OMG !
😍😍😍
this looks so cool with the cute animals
That was awesome never been to Germany but seeing something like that that’s going to be the first place I go
Huge project it's wonderful design 👌
A man maid world, this is what the buildings would look like on the moon. But we'll all be dead before we have a chance to see it.
Speak for yourself. Not.everyone is mortal.

don't worry the moon landing was a hoax, nobody has gone there or will... nobody can go higher that a certain point anyway... do your research..
David J. Ridgway lol stfu flat earther
@@truthfacts5438 earth chan is not flat
Dubai watched this Video and said we are building a bigger one.
@Bengali Warrior Yeah. They only have money from Oil. If there is were no oil they would live in the desert with goats.
Bengali Warrior the best architect in the world is Arabic (iraqi) Zaha Hadid (even when she is dead the world still construct her design). Dubai is full of Arab engineers and the arabs built great civilization when Europe was in its dark age.
I wonder, as a Bengali, what are you proud of? U got ur Islam from arabs and got ur country robbed by British but u still play cricket in the unpaved streets and your people go to work for peanuts (few dollars) in Dubai.
@Bengali Warrior Yeah you are right 👍
@@Too_Much_Caffeine no wonder the same people in power that get kickbacks from them want to stop nuclear power
@@ghaithkhudher2716 Both of you are not really open minded. Both of you should stop hating other countrys and start loving!!! See the good things and not the bad things! Dubai has a really small rate of criminals and is a beautiful City (architecture wise) and Bali is one of the most beautiful places on earth. Start to chill.
This makes so much sense. Many of the coldest places where people reside are some of the richest areas or at least aren’t poor. Which makes building things like this a totally super smart idea. You could build a place like this large enough and literally live in any climate in any part of the world.
Been here and love it!!!! Do stay a night if possible
This is amazing. Man...i love it.
I've visited the park twice now and it's really quite cool though their slide portfolio should be expanded. Some of the slides have up towards 45 minute queues, even on relatively quiet days and they are doing something at least. They're currently in the middle of replacing the little water playground by the beach with a much larger verson with a bunch of big slides attached, including one of those where you go into a massive bowl and drop through the center.
Wow this look great fun it's amazing what they created
Cool! I'm surprising that I saw this similar scene in a episode Doreamon story over ten- year ago
I've been there, it's a wonderful place, just i love it ❤
This actually would be a cool idea to have tons of these all with different themes instead of traditional cities
What a great, wonderful place!
Wow.. Looks absolutely beautiful...
Until to look up! XD
I come from Germany and was there very often, I Love it

I am and live in Germany, I didnt even know about this! but i think its a cool and great idea being a "water rat" myself I should visit it someday
*i will buy that dome and make my own hunger games*
What a great idea to convert something like this for the good of the people!
I was there with school :) Its realy cool to explore!

Cool....
Thanks for the visit.
Las Vegas has a lot of these theme resorts. This one looks nice.
louisa lippmann is there😍😍😍 clever german👏👏👏

I was there in elementary school. It's nice. Especially in the winter.
Nice experience for the folks that live there
Idk why but I've always wanted to go to an indoor town/city. Would be cool to spend the night here
Make a Zip line that would be freeeken !! Or bungee jumping!
How haven’t I heard about this? This is insane....cool
2004? First time I've ever heard of it ? Wow centre parks on acid 😊👍

Awesome under a dome.
No words.

Well done Germany. I want one of those Hangers.
Been there, had a great day, it's very impressive and extremely spacious. Located next to the highway in between Berlin and Dresden.
tropical forest...but if you look above....u cant see the beauty of the sky.......
noisky valensky yes but still good not better
Yup
Now we'll make a fake sky
Well they could put a 360 screen around. I've bin in an allround theater it's crazy real.
Just paint a sky up in there like them Vegas shops.
in 50 years everyone in europe will be able to experience a tropical climate whether they want to or not. good luck with this year's heatwave.

It’s in Germany, can you imagine how many fights there are over those deck chairs?
Great point. Wonder if it's noisy inside...
@@jenniferbeatty7545 I've been there - stayed one night in a tent in easter holidays. It was awesome. Me and kids loved it. Not packed at all and no queues for slides. If you stay overnight you can turn up at 6am and leave at midnight the next day and also get a free (5 star) buffet breakfast. Indoor outdoor sections and some cool slides. Not too noisy at all, just a little hot in the tents
None there enough of them

They weren't blimps. The Zeppelins were airships, as long as a modern day cruise ship and the ability to cross the Atlantic ocean.
Science Chap Is a blimp not an airship? I would have thought any inflatable passenger carrying aircraft could call itself airship.
What are the differences between a blimp and an airship? And what defines each?
Cheers.
Maybe. But the soviets did not use rigid airships like zeppelins, they used blimps. So you're still wrong. He did say that this was used by the soviets, he shouldn't have said zeppelin
To me this is like a dreamy tropical place
You mean a dreamy, tropical prison? Lol
Well done I love it
