We went to Genting Highland on Saturday. The plan came because all the family members are at home, because of the Chinese New Year celebration. It was not a thought out plan. Why did I said it was not a thought out plan? If you have experience going to Genting, during the holiday period, you know what I mean.
This is what I mean, the sea of people are overwhelming.
We woke up early, breakfast and headed towards Genting Skyway (the cable car), but the line was soo long, it took us more than an hour to reach the cable car, and this was at 10 am! If you hate waiting, you should drive up to Genting, instead of waiting, it took about 10 minutes to get up to Genting in a car. Now, the only problem with driving up is finding a parking space, which is close to impossible during the holiday.
It also took 15 minutes to get to the top.
As soon as we reach there, it was already nearing lunch time, so we headed to Kenny Rogers. It was a simple lunch, but very fulfilling, maybe because we are all hungry from queuing, hehehe. Then we decided which rides to take.
For those that have been to Genting know that there are 2 theme park, basically, the indoor and the outdoor theme park, The Genting Outdoor Theme Park, and the First World Indoor Theme Park. They both equally good.
If you decided to try all the ride, it best if you have a one night stay or two night in Genting, there are many rides, you couldn't get on all of it, plus with all the people, it probably take about 10-15 minutes per ride, and if the ride are popular, it will take about about 30 minutes.
Because we only going there for a day, there are not a lot of choices on which ride we could take, and we decided to stick to the indoor theme park. In the end, we decided to go into SnowWorld, since the twins never been into somewhere cold.
We finish the day with a whole one hour of arcade playing, which is fun if you consider the prizes you get from all the coupons you collected. If you want to look at both of the theme park, get a ride with the monorail, it will travel from inside and circling the outdoor theme park.
But, Genting has much more to offer than rides and theme park, there are also museum, gallery, and who could forget the casino. So if you decide to go to Genting, go when it's not a holiday season, book one or two days if you want to try everything. Don't worry about the cold, it's not that bad, unless if it start to rain.
If you came by cable car, be prepare to queue for another 1 hour to go back down, I'm sure by this time, you're so tired, you don't care about anything else except to get back home, cause that's what happened to us. In the end it was a tiresome day, was it fun? No, just because of the shear numbers of people there, it really suck the fun out of you.
