Buena Park, CA Travel, Photos Information and News
Buena Park is home to the Knott's Berry Farm tradition of fried chicken dinners, thrill rides, a Western themed ghost town and several other entertainment venues such as Pirates Dinner Adventure and Medieval Times.
Located about 12 miles from the Pacific Ocean and beaches of Orange County, Buena Park itself runs along Beach Boulevard so you can drive directly to the beach from the city without getting lost.
The city's main draw is Knott's Berry Farm, a local favorite theme park that decks itself around Halloween with a scare theme, providing one of the best scare experiences in the U.S. Tryouts for the scare characters are held each year and for those who like to participate, the event provides great excitement.
Knott's theme park also opens up a summer attraction, Soak City. This water park across the street from the amusement is filled with a wide range of slides and water rides. Brightly colored with primal colors such as red, blue and yellow, Soak City is usually open between Memorial Day in late may and some time in September.
Tourists who visit Disneyland in Anaheim approx. 15-20 minutes away by car, often like to visit Buena Park and Knott's Berry Farm, as well. Sometimes the teens don't get enough thrill at Disneyland and Knott's in Buena Park fits the bill with scary roller coasters, fast moving g-force style rides and even a cute, little Camp Snoopy for the toddlers and tiny tots.
