Thundering hooves, whirring spurs and shouts of ‘yeehah' are the soundtrack to a day out at Oasys MiniHollywood. Wander the dusty streets of an old Wild West town film set, and the action happens all around you. From cattle runs and horse shows to gunfights and bank heists, it's an entertainment extravaganza, cowboy style.
Originally a movie set for a whole host of spaghetti westerns, it's all swinging saloon doors and one-room jailhouses. Even Clint Eastwood scuffed the dusty streets here in A Fistful of Dollars. The theme park puts on exciting shoot-outs, can-can shows and stunt riding, recreating legendary scenes in cinema history, all with a beautiful desert backdrop.
There's also a miniature zoo that the kids will love. It's interesting stuff, as the centre supports an educational, research and conservation programme, too. And when it's time to take a break, refuel in the restaurant or poke around one of the souvenir shops.
