Suburbs of Saturnia - Summer Fun in Menken
Head down Route 64, take exit 96, and you will arrive in the quaint suburb of Menken, around 15 miles from Saturnia. Menken is significant because it has one of the nation's largest amusement park's, known as Smith's World of Entertainment. It was founded in 1947, when people began moving to the suburbs. Most of the existing rides date from modern times, with a few exceptions.
When you arrive at the park, you can park and enter through the large wooden main entrance.
Or, if you took a bus trip here, there's a drop-off area on the side of the park for that.
The most famous ride is the Twister, a large wooden roller coaster built in 1953.
Some other rides include the classic Ferris Wheel, which when you enter is the first ride you see.
Recently added is Steel Demon, a large roller coaster with top speeds of over 90 MPH.
There are many of other rides in this park, so there's something for everyone.
Aside from the park, Menken is your typical suburb.
