Cedar Point is a amusement park located on a Lake Erie peninsula in Sandusky, Ohio.

Opened in 1870, it is the second-oldest operating amusement park in the United States behind Lake Compounce.

Cedar Point is owned and operated by Cedar Fair and is considered the flagship of the amusement park chain.

Known as "America's Roller Coast", the park features a world-record 71 rides, including 16 roller coasters which are second-most in the world behind Six Flags Magic Mountain.

Its newest roller coaster, Valravn, opened in May 2016.

A roller coaster is an amusement ride developed for amusement parks and modern theme parks.

LaMarcus Adna Thompson obtained a patent regarding roller coasters on January 20, 1885, which were made out of wood, but this patent is considerably later than the "Russian mountains" described below.

In essence a specialized railroad system, a roller coaster consists of a track that rises in designed patterns, sometimes with one or more inversions (such as vertical loops) that briefly turn the rider upside down.

The track does not necessarily have to be a complete circuit, as shuttle roller coasters demonstrate.

Most roller coasters have multiple cars in which passengers sit and are restrained.

Two or more cars hooked together are called a train.

Some roller coasters, notably wild mouse roller coasters, run with single cars.

An amusement park (sometimes referred to as a funfair) or theme park is a group of entertainment attractions, rides, and other events in a location for the enjoyment of large numbers of people.

Amusement parks have a fixed location, as opposed to travelling funfairs and traveling carnivals, and are more elaborate than simple city parks or playgrounds, usually providing attractions meant to cater specifically to certain age groups, as well as some that are aimed towards all ages.

Theme parks, a specific type of amusement park, are usually much more intricately themed to a certain subject or group of subjects than normal amusement parks.
