Jurassic World is the fully functioning theme park on Isla Nublar. The main attractions are living dinosaurs. It has elements of a biological preserve, a safari, a zoo, and a theme park. It's a luxury resort with hotels, restaurants, nightlife and a golf course.[1] By 2015, the park is visited by over 20,000 tourists a day. Its hours of operation are 8AM-10PM.[2]
Story
Foundation
After Masrani Global Corporation acquired InGen, CEO Simon Masrani began to craft a plan to successfully create a dinosaur park, a task that InGen had failed twice. With a collection of experts from the Masrani Global Corporation, as well as Dr. Henry Wu from the recently acquired company InGen supporting his vision, Simon's plan was set in motion.[3]
Named "Jurassic World", Simon Marani used subsidiary Axis Boulder Engineering and founded Timack Construction to prepare, plan, and begin construction of the new dinosaur park.[3][4] Their construction workers were protected by InGen's Security Divison which was now supervised by Vic Hoskins from the island's local wildlife as they built the new park.[3][5] The construction of the park was completed in 2004 with a total of $1.2 billion spent on concrete and building materials.[3]
InGen was responsible for recreating Jurassic World's prehistoric fauna like they had done before for its precursor Jurassic Park. Jurassic World officially opened to the public in 2005 where it was met with 98,120 visitors in its first month. On the same year, the Masrani corporation signed a treaty with the Costa Rican Environmental Protection Society to protect Isla Nublar's native wildlife and their habitat.[3]
Indominus rex
From 2011-2013, Jurassic World saw a decline in profits, sparking worry in investors.[6] In response Masrani decided to create the genetic hybrid known as Indominus rex. When CEO Simon Masrani announced the new attraction for the dinosaur park at the beginning of 2015 the park saw an increase in ticket sales[7], but the creation of a genetically modified hybrid would soon prove to be a horrible mistake. Upon the opening of her attraction, the Indominus rex escaped its paddock and went on a rampage, killing or attacking park visitors and dinosaurs. During its romp of havoc the residents of the Isla Nublar Aviary were released and attacked the humans in the park as well.

Reception
Jurassic World received high critical acclaim from visitors. InGen Security's protection of the park made it very safe, earning Jurassic World the title of the "Safest Theme Park in The World".[9][3] However, Jurassic World has had its fair share of criticism. Most notably was the lack of feathered dinosaurs in Jurassic World because of the amphibian used in their creation.[10] Indomins rex also raised concerns with employees with Owen Grady and even founder Simon Masrani feeling uneasy about opening her paddock to the public due to how dangerous she was.
