I thought that it would be fun to decipher the various rides at an amusement park.

Hi Zhenlijiang - they do look like teacups! I'm not sure what they are called in Anglophone countries.

游乐园

Before we get to the rides. This sign sits just outside the 游乐园 yóulèyuán (amusement park) - and why not? Very sensible.

Note: This could have appeared in 'Red Banner Signs' or 'Slogans' but it fits better here.
