Bring kneepads and a sense of adventure; you'll need it, since there are no maps to the ten-story slide, the world's largest underwear, the pinball collection, or any of the other wacky surprises hidden within.

There are secret passages and grand galleries. Playgrounds and ball pits. A circus and a train. A rooftop school bus and a Ferris wheel.
