BLACKPOOL TOWER

Opened in 1894, the Blackpool Tower is a replica of our Eiffel Tower on a scale of 1/2, since it only reaches a height of 158 metres. When it was inaugurated, 3000 people climbed it, but thirty years later, the building, which had been damaged by corrosion, was in danger of being demolished. Between 1921 and 1924, the entire steel structure was changed and the colossus was classified in 1973. Today, the tower houses several of the city's iconic attractions.

Blackpool Tower Eye: this is the observation platform at 148 metres, from which you can see all the surroundings and the sea as far as the eye can see. In good weather, you can even see Liverpool, the Isle of Man and the Lake District. A 4D cinema offers visitors a film on the history of the region.

Blackpool Tower Circus: this is the largest circus in the country, inaugurated in 1894 between the four feet of the tower. Since then, he has not missed a single season, not even during the two world wars. Its superb interior dates back to 1900 and it welcomes up to 1300 spectators.

Blackpool Tower Ballroom: this magnificent ballet room opened in 1894 and adopted its current form in 1898. Orchestras, operas and theme evenings.

Blackpool Tower Dungeon: an interactive one-hour tour that makes you laugh as much as it makes you shiver thanks to a dozen actors and many special effects. Torture room, labyrinth, Viking camp, historical characters, staging and execution simulations, it is a thousand-year journey into Lancashire's sinister past. Dungeons of this chain can be found in other cities in England.

Jungle Jim: it is a vast children's playground inspired by the pre-Columbian world, with slides, ball pools, climbing walls and many settings where you can find a treasure.

Dino Golf: a 9-hole minigolf course on the world of dinosaurs.
