HIDDEN among the trees of an Italian forest lies a theme park, hand built by a little Italian man named Bruno.

Bruno is an inventor type that has been building roller-coasters, gyroscopes, slides and see-saws for the better part of 40 years.

The park is a way to attract customers to his restaurant, Ai Pioppi, which he runs with his family.

He has become the subject of a documentary produced by the Fabrica company.

The love and commitment he has dedicated to this hidden treasure has to be seen to be believed.

There's not much more to say about this but it looks like the closest we will ever come to Alice's Wonderland and I for one need to get over there immediately to take some photographs.
