If you are seeking a destination that will appeal not only to yourself, but your kids as well, then Universal Studios is a must see. It is one of the oldest movie studious still in use and even has a presence in other countries such as Japan, Signapore and even Hollywood. History as well as entertainment are mixed in this one great location. There is something for every member of the family, from amazing rides to awesome restaurants and shops.

Universal Studios is a division of NBCUniversal and one of six major movie studios. It was founded in 1912 by Carl Laemmle. Eight years ago, the company was sold by Vivendi Universal to General Electric, the parent company of NBC. Universal Studios contains an impressive film library with almost any work on film available. The productions studios are located at 100 Universal City Plaza Drive in Universal City, California. Universal Studios is responsible for producing many fine films.

Not only does Universal Studios have a great studio, it also has many rides and attractions. These include such ones as Revenge of the Mummy and Men in Black. Some of the new ones include Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey as well as The Incredible Hulk Coaster. There are also two different coasters for the Dragon Challenge and Doctor's Doom freefall has a tower that is 150 feet tall. If that wasn't impressive enough, The Jurassic Park River Adventure has an 85 foot water plunge.

There are also live shows that will leave each member of the family enthralled. This includes the Blue Man Group and a Hard Rock Live concert. There are also restaurants that includes the Three Broomsticks and the Hard Rock Caf. If gourmet is the way you want to go, Emeril's Restaurant is the way to go. There is also an option for Universal's Cinematic Spectacular Dining Experience, which is the epitome of dining. And don't forget to walk away with the vast amount of shops available at the Studios, of which Universal City Walk and Islands of Adventure are must sees.

Without a doubt, Universal Studios is a destination unlike any other. It offers an interesting history and entertainment for every member of the family.
