LetoLeto Water Park, the largest indoor waterpark in Russia, has opened in the city of Tyumen.

Turkey-based Polin Waterparks worked with local investment group Sibentel Holding on the 10,000-sq-m facility, which features exhilarating slides as well as mineral spring baths and a hotel.

Polin opened an office in Russia several years ago specifically to cater to the country’s growing waterpark industry. The company has supplied waterslides to Gorki Indoor Waterpark and H2O Aquapark.

For the newly opened LetoLeto Water Park, Polin has supplied more than 10 water slides, including three of its most popular ones: Turbolance, Windigo and Magic Hole.

Key attractions at the include:

• Over 1km of water slides with the most extreme reaching a height of 21m
• 750-sq-m wave pool with four programmable modes
• 570-cubic-m Lazy River with 3km per hour flow speed
• 1,300-sq-m children’s area

The waterpark can host up to 2,500 guests. Nearby is a four-star hotel with a gourmet restaurant. Both the hotel and waterpark have been designed for easy accessibility for people with disabilities.

At the opening ceremony, Alexander Moore, acting governor of the Tyumen region, said: “I am sure that it will become one of the most favourite places for family recreation and will turn into a point of attraction for tourists from other regions of the country. The government of the Tyumen region creates comfortable conditions for investors in all areas of our economy and the creation of an aqua park is yet another confirmation of the correctness of such a strategy.”

Moore also thanked Sibintel-holding "for the successful implementation of a large-scale investment project".

Selim Doguoglu, general manager of the Russian office of Polin Waterparks, said: "Polin focuses on creating rides that deliver thrilling adrenaline rushes that keep guests coming back for more. It's a real honour to know that our attractions are helping our partners like LetoLeto Aquapark not just satisfy their patrons but gain their enduring affection. It's truly satisfying to see the comments guests make after experiencing our designs. We know we've succeeded when guests rate our partners' parks with their highest reviews." - TradeArabia News Service
