The Great Stone Dragon - Dark Ride/ Roller Coaster
"The Great Stone Dragon" is a quest to find the Great Stone Dragon with the help of Mulan and Mushu, as Shan Yu has captured the Chinese Emperor. It explores Chinese culture as Mushu and Mulan search through various temples and villages. A manmade hill will be built behind the China Pavilion, with temple ruins present throughout. The entire ride will be present inside the hill.

The ride entrance is on the side of the China Pavilion, on the backside of the Lotus Blossom Cafe. The queue is entirely outdoors, and temple ruins and interactive elements teach riders about Chinese culture. At one part of the ride, a Mushu animatronic talks with guests, in a similar way to that of Turtle Talk With Crush. Once one walks through the winding queue, an open Chinese inspired building houses the boarding station. Here we see the ride vehicles, shaped like horses, which uses the same type of restraints and design like that of Tron Lightcycle Power Run.

When one boards the train, it slowly takes them inside the show building, resembling the Emperor's palace. We see the Emperor reading a scroll. Shan Yu lurks in the shadows behind. He runs up to Shan Yu, and the vehicles turn and see a shadow of the emperor being shoved in a sack. The ride accelerates and leaves the show building and swerves side to side on the hill, before braking and reentering the show building in a recreation of Mulan's house. Shang tells Mulan about the capture of the Emperor. We slowly travel uphill in a recreation of the hill indoors with a starry night sky above, and a gazebo is present at the top. We enter it, and Mulan is informing Mushu of the capture. Mushu suggests help from the Great Stone Dragon. The ride exits the show building once again and travels down a small hill to a recreation of a Chinese village. We see animatronics of beautiful girls posing on a stairway, then crash through a building with a sign that says "Lee's Kung Fu Training." Two animatronic men are performing a fight, as a master watches. We head to a courtyard and see banners waving that say "Spring Festival." Dancers and animatronic dragon costumes perform to the sides of us, simulating a parade. A launch sends us up another hill, where we brake inside a temple. Ghosts using the Pepper's Ghost illusion align the walls, maliciously holding various weapons. We enter a corridor with Ancient Chinese patterns along the walls, then come to a room where we see Mushu tugging on the Great Stone Dragon's head, and stone warriors around the room. After orbiting around the dragon, we see the structure collapse, and the dragon dramatically emerges into the room. The stone warriors awaken and doors to outside fling open. We plummet down the main hill and around a helix, then through other various twists and turns, weaving through ancient ruins. We cross a minature Great Wall of China, then turn into another temple ruin and brake, re entering the show building. A scene shows the stone warriors fighting Shan Yu's army, than finally the dragon standing over Shan Yu, claws bared. We turn a corner and see Mulan removing the Emperor from the sack.The final scene shows Mushu, Mulan, and the Emperor enjoying tea with a backdrop of a horizon. We then return to the station.

What do you think of my idea? I tried to include educational elements of Chinese culture in with action and thrills.
