NIckelodeon Theme Park in Sunway Lagoon, Malaysia

Being an avid theme park lover, I am those few that would travel to the other side of the world just to mark it on my list of which I will try to coincide or include theme park as one of the must visit places or to do list. Chance upon a fellow friend’s Facebook post stating the opening of Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon in Sunway basically made my day, ticking my theme park bucket list. To “exaggerate” how kiasu I can be, I even googled how many Nickelodeon Theme Park is there in the whole world and obviously knowing that the one in my home country is the 1st one in Asia was an icing on the cake. I jumped with joy, did a Patrick starfish cartwheel and then dive to Bikini Bottom *wink*. Accompanied by my trusty Boots’s (iPhone), I ”Dora-ed” myself with the help of Map (Waze) to Sunway Lagoon to meet Donatello, Leonardo, Raphael and Michelangelo, my BFF; the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Ahaks… I think I got a tad carried away.

For those looking for ‘calculated risk’ type of ‘extreme’ fun *cheeky smile*, head to Sunway Lagoon as you will be overwhelmed by the latest Sunway and Viacom International Media Networks (VIMM) latest collaboration – The Nickelodeon Lost Lagoon; Asia 1st Nickelodeon Themed Land *proud moment*. Launch on 2 February, 2016 by Selangor Chief Mninster, Yang Amat Berhormat Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Bin Ali; Sunway Group founder and chairman Tan Sri Dr. Jeffrey Cheah; Sunway Group deputy chairman Tan Sri Datuk Seri Razman M. Hashim and Executive Vice President and Managing Director of VIMM Asia, Mark Whitehead.

Famous for their cartoons such as SpongeBob Squarepants, Dora the Explorer, and teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles; Nickelodeon Lost lagoon created 14 attractions from these hit programs highlighting the Great Slime Deluge as their daily signature attraction. Waterslide rides, retail shops, games and Nickelodeon characters meeting session promises endless fun for guest regardless of age group. It is an addition attraction to Sunway Lagoon that bound to attract and grow Selangor tourism traffic.
