Buena Park - Knott's Berry Farm

In the year 1920 Walter Knott opened a fruit-stall here. Shortly afterwards he added a restaurant, in which at first he served only chicken dishes. The jams his wife made were a further specialty. In the course of time the farm developed into the present pleasure park to which new attractions are constantly being added. The emphasis here is on the re-awakening of the themes of the American past; the gold rush, a Spanish-American fiesta village, the "Roaring Twenties", a 19th century railway which runs round a large part of the grounds, a reproduction of the Independence Hall in Philadelphia with its Liberty Bell in its original size, and roundabouts.

Highlights include ("Wild Water Wilderness") you take a white-water
