Tourism has boomed in Malaysia and theme parks even more abundant, let's look at some of the exciting upcoming amusement parks that will be opening very soon.
Port Dickson in Malaysia has some gorgeous beaches that prove to be very appealing, however, there will soon enough be a wet theme park called Splash Park to amplify this amazing place. Splash Park is set to be the largest water theme park in all of Negiri Sembilan. The park is said to host many adventurous rides and facilities like a lazy river, sand pool, water slides, and a gigantic playship that is believed to be the biggest in the whole of Malaysia. The park will also feature a forest of jumping jets and beach pools as well. For relaxation, the park will have restaurant facilities and night entertainment unlike any other. The park is also said to host a separate section titled "Extreme Park" that includes activities like go-karting and paintball which would make for a perfect weekend adventure. If you're on the lookout for things to do in Sepang, this theme park will be relatively close by. And Sepang offers many great places to kick back and relax like AVANI Sepang Goldcoast Resort for example.
Langkawi Eco Theme Park was the result of an RM700 million investment to create an 'eco-expansion' of the nearby Oriental Village, an outdoor mall with a boutique hotel right at the bottom of Mount Machincang towards the northwestern part of the island. National Geographic has partnered with this theme park to create an absolutely one-of-a-kind attraction called "Flight over Langkawi". This immersive Omnidome 3D flight is said to showcase the astounding beauty of the island and is a part of the parks first phase of development. The Langkawi Eco Theme Park will include various other attractions such as a biodome that hosts a plethora of flora and fauna from Langkawi and a cultural village that includes an amphitheatre.
