Knott's Berry Farm
From its humble beginnings as a 20-acre farm in the 1920s, Knott's Berry Farm® Theme Park has grown into a 160-acre thrill-seeker haven. As "America's 1st Theme Park," Knott's Berry Farm® Theme park is home of the world’s original looping coaster. With six theme areas, Ghost Town, Camp Snoopy, Fiesta Village, the Boardwalk, Wild Water Wilderness and Indian Trails, Knott's has something for everyone.
After a full day, refuel at the famous Mrs. Knott’s Chicken Dinner Restaurant. The Depression-era restaurant began with just eight tables serving 65-cent chicken dinners. Today, the Chicken Dinner Restaurant seats more than 900 guests at a time, serves more than 1.5 million guests each year, and is the largest full-service restaurant that serves chicken as its main course.
Not only is the park famous as America's oldest theme park but also for the annual, month-long Knott's Scary Farm Halloween Haunt in which the park transforms itself in celebration of Halloween. It is the largest Halloween event to be held at a theme park and features a series of monsters, mazes, and 'scare zones.'

Once it has reached the top of the tower, WindSeeker spreads its metal arms swinging riders for a 60 second flight at a 45-degree angle at a speed of 8 rotations per minute. WindSeeker opened in August 2011.
