We arrived at Ipoh approximately about 8.30a.m. Thinking of want to have our Dim Sum breakfast at the famous Foh San Restaurant, but eventually we just went off due to the huge crowds and a lot of people were queuing waiting for a table. We just went to the opposite Kopitiam to have our breakfast.
We were amazed by the location of the theme park itself, hidden amongst the lush greenery of Tambun, surrounding by limestone cliffs. The park will provide a much-anticipated family leisure attraction for anyone in the area.
1. Lost World Water Park
Jungle Wave Pool
The Jungle Wave Pool is Malaysia’s biggest wave pool! You can hit waves that can swell up three feet high!
Adventure River
Drift away in a giant rubber tube along Malaysia’s longest man-made adventure river and experience the park in a different light.
Take in the sights of ancient limestone hills and get soaked from above by a giant tipping bucket. It’s truly an adventure!
Sandy Bay
Named after its crystal-white sands, Sandy Bay is a perfect place to just bask in the sun with a cool drink in hand!
Or engage in a game of volleyball with your friends.
Kids Explorabay
This kids-only zone has kid-sized slides and a large, wet, interactive play area with giant tipping buckets, water cannons, spraying elephants, water curtains and fountains.
Top this off with a pirate ship ride and your little pirates will be back for more!
Cliff Racer
This ride is adrenaline-packed! It takes you straight down the coaster at maximum speed!
Then it takes you up like you’re going to shoot right through the jungle canopy! Great for bigger kids – and kids at heart.
Tube Raiders
Don’t miss going on the longest inflatable tube ride in Malaysia!
With four different slides to try, the Tube Raiders is a family favourite as you wind your way down from the top of the giant slides.
2. Lost World Petting Zoo
Surrounded by a manmade river, this place is truly a wonderland for children.
They can get intimate with all kinds of rabbits.
The children can also go fishing at the river. They can catch Longkang fish – and even baby fishes!
Ruby the raccoon is the star of the Lost World Petting Zoo. This nocturnal mammal is very gentle and absolutely adorable.
Tortoise Kingdom
Look out for the Chinese Box Turtle and the Turtle Senterrapin at the Tortoise Kingdom.
This beautifully-themed kingdom has a 30-ft waterfall cascading into a natural river which flows into a pond that is home to many species of tortoise.
Being the only aviary to be surrounded by limestone hills and lush green forests, the Bird Paradise truly lives up to its name.
You will find your feathered friends – 500 birds from 18 species – in a completely natural setting.
Marmoset Tree House
Come discover the white and black-eared marmoset among the trees. These small, squirrel-like monkeys dwell in yet another completely natural setting in the Marmoset Tree House!
Be completely surrounded by cold-blooded reptiles as you walk through a transparent tunnel.
See reticulated pythons coiled up in corners. Mangrove snakes slithering on the ground.
There may be serpents above you too!
Be immersed in the sounds and activities of wildlife, such as Squirrels, Foxes, Monkeys, Deers and more.
You can have the thrill of being surrounded by completely wild animals at the designated area too.
There’s nature in abundance at the Rainforest Trail.
Rock Canopy
Have an educational experience like no other at the five photographic and interactive stations at the Rock Canopies. Get ready to engage all your senses as you learn.
3. Lost World Tiger Valley
They are powerful hunters that travel many miles to find prey, such as elk and wild boar, on nocturnal hunts.
Tigers use their distinctive coats as camouflage (no two have exactly the same stripes) and hunt by stealth.
A hungry tiger can eat as much as 60 pounds (27 kilograms) in one night, though they usually eat less. These cats are also excellent climbers and swimmers and we get the chance to catch our Tiger Feeding Show.
4. Lost World Tin Valley
There are educational boards, explaining the art of tin mining right down to interesting facts on tin and how it has become such an important commodity in international trade used in hundreds of industrial processes throughout the world.
Tin Trail
Walk in the footsteps of Tin. Learn how tin is mined, from its first form to tin that can be sold.
The dulang was used to scoop up the earth, mixed with water and by careful swirling of the water, the mud was swept away and the heavier tin ore remained. Kids will have the opportunity to experience ‘dulang washing’— the art of using a dulang to extract tin from the earth and sand.
Tin Bearers
Elephants were the only mode of transporting the heavy tin ore to the nearest depot. Tin Valley has recreated life-sized stone elephants so visitors will have the opportunity to climb onto its back to enjoy a birds eye view of the Lost World Tin Valley. This would make an excellent photo opportunity.
Dulang Tea House
Open for tea, Dulang Tea House serves some of the most delectable local favourites that tin workers in days of old used to enjoy. There’s locally roasted coffee, toasted bread with half boiled eggs and other savoury treats.
5. Lost World Amusement Park
Come aboard our pirate ship and experience what it might be like on stormy seas! Sit tight as the ship swings 180 degrees. Annabelle and I would not dare to try on this, but Daddy and Issac so bravely went up and try!
Dragon Flight
Want a swinging good time? Well, get on our Dragon Flight, get seated, belt up and prepare to be swung around in the air! This too, both son and father went up!
Giddy Galleon
Round and round and round it goes! Another perfect family ride that will get everyone giggling with giddiness.
Perak Parade
Get on board the Perak Parade! Round and round you go on miniature trains, its easy, fun and great for kids.
We had our snack bites after at the eateries street, which was modelled after a typical street in Ipoh town, Ipoh Street at Lost World of Tambun is every bit as charming as the original. There are selling curry puffs, egg tarts, noodles soup, curry noodles, rojak, tau foo fah, etc. I think due to all of us were hungry, the snacks seems delicious to us.
We really had a fun day here, it was almost 6:00pm when we came out from the theme park. And, to our surprise, this is the first time ever we are able to spend whole day long in a theme park!
