   Did we find ourselves lost in the world of Tambun water park? Well, the signposts are placed minimal. Don't you know you are in Lost World? The best way out is to get lost in the limestone gardens! Just to reach bathroom, I asked two people in two separate occasions.   Armed with the artist impression map of Tambun Lost World, we made up our mind to tackle the dry parks first before jumping into water. Some people chose the opposite option and that perhaps better since the bathroom tends to be more crowded in the evening. On the second note, once you hit the pools with kids, I doubt they want to go anywhere else!  Our first destination was Petting Zoo. As we entered, souvenir shop was on our left, but there was not arrow or sign on how visitors could start or best to explore this kiddo land. Apart from hugging a raccoon and shooing us out from a hidden corner, the zoo staff were neither helpful except a duo we met at the birdie sanctuary.   Next on the loop of Lost World, we arrived at Swan Lake. A good spot to catch the breathtaking view of the Tambun's The Needle with Swan Lake as foreground. Size wise, Swan Lake is not even a quarter of Taiping Lake, but one can enjoy boating here too. A T-junction ahead made a branch, one leads to Tin Valley where the opposite is Tiger Valley and Kepura Cave. Aside from a couple big stripy cats roaming distance away, this area is pretty quiet.  Tin Mining Park in Tambun Lost Wolrd is worth to take kids to especially for school age children. With pictures and writing presented on plates, hanging on every lamp post, this self-guided tour refreshed what I had learned about Perak's tin mining history. Stone elephants parade perhaps get the tykes excited, with photography allowed. To get up on this 'mammal', take a designated ladder. Here is also the place to pull up your sleeves, get dirty and try out the traditional method of tin mining - washing and panning tin in river bed with a wooden tray (dulang)!  The further end that is also the cul-dec-sac is the Team Building Park - the first park in Malaysia that offers rock climbing and abseiling in nature. With a small fee, challenge one's vertical limit, hanging on rope to reach the peak of a limestone tower - The Needle of Tambun that takes the center stage. Catch the charming limestone and water landscape from atop.  A handful of amusement rides occupied the last section in our loop, adjacent to the food court. Merry-go-round, stormy ride on pirate ship and dizzy chair perhaps make the big kids hooked. Catch us cast away and lost on the bay in Tambun water park in next episode! Direction: |
