Isla Mágica
theme park in Seville, Spain
Isla Mágica (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈisla ˈmaxika], Magic Island) is a theme park at the Isla de La Cartuja, in Seville, Andalusia in Spain. The park has six themed areas and a water park called Agua Mágica.
The theme was built after the Expo '92 Universal Exhibition on part of the grounds where it was held. Initially called Cartuja, El parque de los descubrimientos, the theme park was later redesigned and it reopened as Isla Mágica on 28 June 1997. On 28 June 2014, the Agua Mágica water park was opened.
It features a large lake and many other attractions including roller coasters and various other types of rides as well as both live and cinematic shows. The park's slogan is "Diversión sin límites" which translates as "Fun without Limits".

Why this record matters
A short description can identify a subject without explaining its stakes. For “Isla Mágica”, the useful work is to connect “theme park in Seville, Spain” to the records capable of establishing context and consequence.
The strongest evidence will usually combine a dated visual record with documents produced by the authority responsible for the place. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2961111. Authority coordinates are 37.408, -6.000. 3 of 3 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1997 and 2014.
A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
