An unlikely theme park is fast becoming one of Lithuania's top tourist attractions, nicknamed 'Stalin World' Grutas Park serves as a reminder for future generations of how not to let history repeat itself.
A period in history that saw hundreds of thousands of people shipped to work camps in Siberia is now being documented in the most unusual way. The theme park creator Vilimaus says, "by creating this park here, we want to constantly remind people about these things that are often forgotten". But the parks existence in Lithuania is a contentious and divisive issue to the local people who are appalled that money can be made in this way.
