There are times during Flight of the Dragon that you wonder if its not just the serpent-like dragon thats been digitally created for the eight-minute film. The scenes of China are so jaw-dropping beautiful that you think youre flying into a scene from Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones.
As the camera soars high above the Yangtze River, you marvel not only at how the experience mimics sky-diving from the heavens but at the magnificent forces that have created such incredibly awe-inspiring vistas. This is the first time Flight of the Dragon has been shown outside of China and FlyOver Canada couldnt be the more perfect host. With its 20m spherical screen and specially designed, tilting seats it comes so close to making you think youre flying that you have to stop yourself from waving back at the people on the screen. Whats more, as part of the presentation at Canada Place you also get the equally impressive flight from coast to coast to coast of Canada. The stunning scenery has you yearning for more, more, more. The double feature runs until March 2. Tickets are $20 for adults, $18 for seniors and youth and $15 for children (at least 102cm tall), with discounts if you book at FlyOverCanada.com.
