Sounds good, sounds exciting, sounds interesting. Well, the reality could not have been further from the truth. It was run down, broken and empty. Almost a ghost town, one had to search to find staff and when you did find a staff member they were generally unhappy at being interrupted from their sms’ing and were unhelpful and not particularly knowledgeable.
The Kampoeng Cina, was the busiest place, about 40% occupancy of the stalls, however, they all seemed to be selling the same thing, cheap Chinese red dresses. The Kampoeng America was a bunch of concrete stalls with either a Hollywood or cowboy theme. 95% of them were closed and looked like they had been closed for years. One or two brave stall owners sold, you guessed it, Chinese red dresses.
There were a couple of fried tofu and fried banana stalls. We continued on to visit Fantasy Island and Jurassic Park itself. A nominal fee of 8,000 IDR was charged. (80 cents). First problem, our young baby has to go through the turnstile in her push chair (and rain). Some tricky maneuvering and we made it to a flight of stairs. Great thinking.
Up and over, some old, broken dinosaurs rearing out of the water leaned over us as we entered the island. They were made of wire and cheap metal or plastic.Clearly they had not been looked after since they had been built.
None of the rides were open in the rain and at least the cab car ride had not been used in a few years given that trees had grown up and through the wires. Notice the wires in this picture as they head towards the tower.A few of the rides, go karts, train rides would be suitable for kids aged about 5.
Summary, we will not be going back. Worst tourist attraction, ever!
i went there 2 years ago, fortunately during the chinese new year event so it was crowd enough. seems like you guys choose the wrong day 😀
but you’re right; the same item shops, unfriendly shopkeeper, rainy… not worth my time going back there.
