Trans Wonderland is sometimes referred to as Nigeria's Disney World. The park covers a total area of 67 acres.
Attractions include roller coasters, electronic bumper cars, panoramic wheels, ferris wheels, merry-go-round horses, space station, flying chain chairs, dragon boats, funky basket circles and many others. Today, however the park is a shadow of its former self because many of these attractions have fallen into disrepair and they are no longer in good working condition due to maintenance issues. In spite of this, the park is still a popular entertainment venue in Ibadan.
