A travel guide to the best places to visit

Sunway Lagoon attraction park

Sunway Lagoon is an award winning attraction park in Malaysia. Sunway Lagoon is one of the most exciting destinations on this list. It consists of an extensive water park, an amusement park, a Nickelodeon themed park, a wildlife park, an extreme activities park and more. Together these themed sub-parks form a diverse, wild and complete experience where there are always things to do and you can always find a fun attraction to get lost in.

It’s a good idea to bring your swimming gear because the water park has some great attractions, from the world’s largest water attraction and huge waterslides to the Waterplexx 5D cinema, which is a 3D movie experience where you can also expect to get wet, and watery playgrounds for children. It also has an unmatched artificial beach with a wave simulator which allows you to hone your surfing skills.

There is also a Nickelodeon themed area, which also has pretty cool water attractions. From water fountains for children and slides that you can experience on a rubber boat to scary water slides, with a trapdoor below your feet, which opens up and sends you into a vertical free-fall over a slide and into the water.

In the wildlife park you can find a large number of exotic animals like the elusive white tigers, black panthers and other animals like bears and porcupines. It’s a complete zoo that comes with animal shows and wildlife encounters. It’s the perfect place to have a stroll through after a long day of swimming.

The extreme park focusses on somewhat more extravagant sports such archery, paintball shooting, kayaking, but it also has a few paid activities such as bungee jumping. This park is meant for the people who seek more excitement and love physical and thrilling activities.

The amusement park contains the ever so familiar family friendly attractions that you have come to expect from theme parks, such as a roller coaster, a rubber boat that goes over the river rapids and a swinging pirate ship. For younger kids there are also carousels and slides and other activities where they can enjoy harmless amusement.

At the moment of writing the park also has a scream park, which offers a house of horrors experience to visitors. The four interactive walk-through shows are well thought out and truly give a distinct flavour to this amusement park. Of course you do have to take the shows with a grain of salt and just enjoy it for what it is.

The park is located on a 15 minute drive from Kuala Lumpur in the neighbouring village of Petaling Jaya, and right behind the distinctive Sunway Pyramid shopping mall. As the park is quite nearby the best way to reach it is by taking the taxi directly to the park. But it’s also possible to go to Kuala Lumpur Sentral railway station and then take the RapidKL bus to the park.

The tickets to this park offer admission to all the sub-parks, so you can enjoy the whole experience from the waterpark, to the zoo and the roller coasters. Visiting the Sunway Lagoon attraction park is a great way to get maximum enjoyment out of your vacation.
