The park's inflatables are currently arranged to spell out "I [heart] Expo 2020."

The park, founded by local entrepreneur Ahmed Ben Chaibah, first opened in 2016, and has since tripled in size, Guinness World Records said.

The water park features about 100 obstacles and can accommodate about 500 people at one time.
