Enclosed roller coaster

An enclosed roller coaster is a roller coaster built inside a structure intended solely for the ride. This structure often imparts a theme or houses special effects. In contrast, an indoor roller coaster is built inside a structure unrelated to the ride.

One of the best-known enclosed roller coasters is Space Mountain.
