Genting SkyWorlds – The Most Awaited Theme Park

Genting Skyworlds Theme Park

It is festival time in many Southeast Asian countries. The 15 days long Chinese New Year celebrations are in full swing. Amidst this, Malaysia is witnessing the opening of its most awaited theme park- Genting SkyWorlds. 

The good old Genting Highlands Outdoor Park in Pahang had shut down in 2013 for renovation. It was decided to relaunch it as a movie-themed amusement park. Since then, people have been eagerly waiting to visit this park. And the wait is finally over. 

If one is still confused about their Chinese New Year plans, then a family outing to Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park is a great idea. It is a perfect destination for both children and adults. The fascinating rides and attractions are enough to bring a smile to anyone’s face. Visitors can plan a one-day trip or stay back and enjoy a few days while exploring the entire theme park.

Virtual Queues

Visitors can check the waiting time for attractions, shows, rides, discount coupons, vouchers, and get more information about games, dining, shopping, etc., on the app. In addition, the platform provides real-time information and tells people about the must-visit places and how to get there.
