Billed as a tropical waterpark, Aquadome Billund is packed with attractions like water slides, a wave pool and jacuzzis.
There are five water slides at the Danish waterpark, including Turbo Racer and Feel the Rush, two of the park's "lightning fast" slides.
Another one of the water slides is called Twister where park-goers are spun around a funnel before heading down the rest of the slide.
Meanwhile, the Tornado is a rubber ring ride where four family members are taken from the heights of the water park to its depths.

There's also the wild river that takes visitors on a meander around the waterpark and Power Races were park-goers can race against each other to reach the bottom.
Aquadome Billund is also home to several pools, including an activity pool that's been described as a "paradise" for water activities thanks to its basketball nets, balancing water lilies and dolphin play structures.
There's also a secret cave pool where park-goers can dive under the water to spot brightly-coloured fish in a huge underwater tank that's just metres away.
Other pools include a heated spa pool and a wave pool.

What is it like to visit Lalandia's Aquadome?
THE Sun's Colin Robertson visited Lalandia Aquadome last year with his family, here's what he thought of the Danish waterpark.
If the sun rears its head, try Lalandia AquaDome (about £120 for a family of four). This superb waterpark has some of the most exhilarating slides I've experienced.
If you don’t fancy them, there is a glorious outdoor pool (heated, this is Scandinavia!) with numerous Jacuzzis.
When you’re done getting soaked you can grab a bite to eat at the nearby fake Italian piazza, which is actually a lot better than it sounds.
This is, after all, a town built on plastic bricks where sometimes the best things are not meant to be real.
Outside there's also an adventure park with a 16m-high tower complete with balancing trials, a zipline and a viewing terrace.
Lalandia in Billund is just a five-minute walk from Legoland Billund.
Holidaymakers can book to stay overnight at one of the on-site holiday homes that can sleep up to eight people.
Visitors who prefer to stay elsewhere can book day tickets to Lalandia Billund.
Entry costs just under £38 per person.
Direct flights operate from London and Manchester to Billund, with return fares starting from £31 in November.
Flights take just 90 minutes.
