Sunway Lagoon, Malaysia

When it comes to theme parks in Malaysia, most Singaporeans immediately think of LEGOLAND Malaysia and Genting SkyWorlds. Think of Sunway Lagoon as the pioneer, having opened all the way back in 1993. It measures 88 acres which, to put it into perspective, is more than 3.5 times the size of VivoCity – SG’s biggest mall.

You can look forward to over 80 attractions across 6 different parks, all included in a single ticket. Accommodation wise, there are luxury hotels within the complex so you don’t have to fret about transportation to and fro, as well as glamping packages with premium BBQ dinners. 

Here’s the full lowdown so you can start planning your trip to Sunway Lagoon, located less than an hour from KL.

80+ attractions across 6 different parks

Prices for theme park tickets aren’t exactly negligible, so it can be a real downer to enter and find that there are limited things to do. At Sunway Lagoon, you have the inverse challenge of potentially too much to do.

The entire theme park is split into 6 different parks, comprising an amusement park, water park, wildlife exhibit, and Nickelodeon themed “Lost Lagoon” all in one. There are also zones dedicated to haunted houses and thrilling activities like bungee jumping, so adrenaline seekers know exactly where to go.
