Dear students,<br />
this quiz takes you on a very special journey through Europa-Park: on the one hand, you‘ll get to know many<br />
interesting places around the theme park. On the other hand, you‘ll be working just like real geographers<br />
using their specialist methods. Reading and understanding maps and plans is an important geographic way<br />
of working. For the initial orientation, you have to get the current park map at the entrance of Europa-Park.<br />
We can start now!<br />
