In addition to the main amusement park sporting about 40 different attractions, Duinrell has been critically acclaimed for its water park with swimming pool (the Tikibad [nl]), which boasts 21 waterslides[1] and a kids' water park.

## History

[edit]

The Duinrell farm in Wassenaar dates as far back as 1646 as part of a large estate. In 1935 the estate opened to the public with a restaurant and "Oranjerie," eventually adding campgrounds, a swimming pool, and developing into a recreational estate.[3]

As of 2022[update], the park is visited by well over a million people each year.[4]
