A much-loved adventure play area less than a 90-minute drive from Manchester is still remembered to this day.
Generations of Mancunian children will remember day trips and summers in Blackpool, from enjoying fish and chips on the pier to heading to Blackpool Tower. And inside the popular landmark, many kids would have had hours of fun after heading inside the legendary Jungle Jim's.
Loved for its ball pits, snake slides and more, Jungle Jim's in Blackpool opened around the 1970s and was a popular destination for children from Greater Manchester and beyond visiting the area. Most childhoods weren't complete without getting lost in the ball pit or sliding down the snake slide on your elbows and knees, Lancs Live recently reported.
