LOST WORLD OF TAMBUN

So many worlds packed into one, the lost world of Tambun, is an action-packed,exciting adventure with the most thrilling rides and attractions in Ipoh, Malaysia. The 60 million ringgit theme park is located in the historic town of Ipoh, in the middle of the North-South corridor in Perak and is set in the natural landscapes of Ipoh, surrounded by exquisitely breath-taking limestone features. Whether it's a weekend of mayhem oozing with family fun or a burst of eco-adventure that you're seeking, take it all  in as you journey through the attractions of the Lost World of Tambun. Five main elements make up this world of adventure - the Water Park, the Amusement Park, Lost World Hot Springs, the Tiger Valley and the Lost World Petting Zoo.

At the River & Beach garden, you can find a perfectly landscaped beach, surrounded by 20 feet twin waterfalls with two rivers flowing into the pool. A crystal-white sandy beach, complemented with lush tropical gardens and majestic rock formations is a perfect mood-setter to start off your journey in the Lost World of Tambun. While designed for more-thrill seeking adults and teenegers, the Cliff Racer gives you a straight down the speed-coaster at maximum speed. Don't miss going on the longest inflatable tube ride in Malaysia which is family-favorite as you wind your way down the top of the giant slides.

PROS & CONS

Interesting place for family and friends gateway

This park have different sections from Petting Zoo (where everyone can get friendly with the animals), Hot Spring(natural healing water) Tin City (dedicated to the tin mining industry in Ipoh), Team Building Park (all the adventurous activities for team building), The Kepura Cafe (special cafe build inside the cave), Water Park and so much more. There are so many things you can do here and one day is really not enough to explore the whole place. I highly recommend this park for family vacation and for friends gathering. It might not be suitable for couple gateway though. A great change from the hectic city life.

Just nice for the kids

Nice place but this place is well meant for the younger kids. Well maintained but no many choices of rides or plays for the elder kids. The SPA is nice but the hot spring is rather small, especially the Jacuzzi was really small.

Overall, the theme park is really suitable for weekend gateway recreation for family. While the children enjoying the ride and the water activities for them, teens and adults also have their own activities too which is the hot spring & spa, and many adventurous water game like cliff racer, wave pool, and the adventure river.

Family can also spent their time in petting zoo, educate the youngster with the real life example. There will always be the friendly staff there to explain you. Lost World of Tambun has its name to imply. Explore the 400 million old of nature side here.
