A Markerland Blog

  In the center of the park is a hub that's sure to astonish. Here, guests are immersed in beautiful gardens where seasonal displays appear. There are bridges to every land here, as well as a large castle. It is a combination of realistic castles of Europe and Disney's fairy tale castles. It also serves as the park's icon. When coming in from Big City USA, guests walk through the gardens to a large pond in the center, where nighttime shows play. Standing in front of it is a small park with a bronze statue of Mason G. Marker and the Tribe, several animals of his. This includes Kit the Goose in his hands, stingrays Daddy Ray and Baby Ray on the left, beluga whales Belu and Fluffy on the right, and Helga the Badger and Rowena the Golden Eagle on his shoulders. The statue is called "Inspiration." Guests find bridges to the land in this clockwise order: Mysterious Jungle, Golden Gulch, Visionary Bay, and Future Expo. In the back of the land is a large castle, Merlin...

  When guests enter the park, they are instantly immersed in a whole new time and place. This is Big City USA, a recreation of an American metropolis amidst the glitz and glamour of the Roaring Twenties. Taking inspiration from cities like New York and Chicago, this is a unique way to start the park. When guests first go through the gates, they see a beautiful garden and a train station on a hill. This is fashioned after the Union Station in Denver, Colorado. Going around the hill, they go through one of two tunnels advertising attractions. From there, they enter a town square, complete with a park in the center with a gazebo and vibrant jazz music playing overhead. On the left side of the square is City Hall, where guests can find help and services, as well as the garage for the vehicles. This is also where guests can Meet Kit the Goose, the mascot of the park. On the right side of the square is the Opera House, where guests can find the Making of Markerland exhibition. Guests can...

The first gate in the resort is the one that gives its name to the resort. Markerland Park still has some slight similarities to its Disney inspiration, but it's definitely not Disneyland. It does use a hub-and-spoke layout and has similar areas though. Here, guests are immersed in a world of fantasy and adventure as they explore marvelous worlds and experience unforgettable attractions. These are the eight areas of the park: Big City USA Castle Gardens Mysterious Jungle Golden Gulch Enchanted Forest Fantasy Festival Visionary Bay Future Expo It's been quite the battle to develop this park. I've gone through many drafts, some of which drove me insane to conceive. However, I finally have something worth typing about. What was the inspiration for this draft? Once again, it was Disney, not a real park, but a fictional park that someone made. I used this as a model and evolved from there. Luckily, it turned into a pretty neat park.

Allow us now to share with you our greatest dream. Located in Southern California is a theme park resort known as Markerland. This is inspired by the stories of me, Mason G. Marker, other stories, as well as original material that I have come up with. This aims to be an epic adventure where guests will find cutting-edge attractions, world-class entertainment, one-of-a-kind shopping, and noteworthy dining options. In addition, this is the realization of a lifelong dream I've had. Here's what to expect in this blog: Markerland Park (1st gate) Markersea Park (2nd gate) Markerville (shopping district) Markerland Hotel (deluxe value hotel) Marker's European Resort (moderate value hotel) Marker's Great American Resort (family value) These will be gone over in later posts. The road to this has been one of ups and downs. I conceived this idea when I was 10, even though it was pretty much a Disneyland ripoff. Over the years, it has evolved. I've had many fallouts with the pa...
