Xixiu District, Anshun, Guizhou.

I have such a soft spot for bootleg roller coasters. Take for example, this dive machine by Golden Horse, located at Great Xingdong Tourist World

Looks pretty normal at first glance, and you might even mistaken it for the real thing made by B&M. Until you look a little closer and realize...

...the thing has two different track styles! One in B&M's classic I-box style, and another that's cylinder-spined!

The trains also have 4 rows instead of the characteristic 3 that B&M dive coasters have.

And as if it couldn't get any more strange, it also has a giant shark at the bottom of the first drop.

Truly an enigma of a ride. According to RCDB, it's currently standing but not operating, with it's last operating year being in 2019, so it's unknown if it's ever going to start operations again anytime soon. Still, it's one of my favourite examples of bootleg coasters because I think it's such a bizarre and unique ride!
