What to expect
Global Village is an evening destination. You walk between pavilions from many countries, browse shops, try street food and watch shows. Videos describe the atmosphere as lively and busy, with rides for children.
The park only runs from October to May, so it is not open in summer. Pavilions and attractions change from season to season, so check the official site for this year.
