Trans Studio, Makassar

[seaeagle]

This is the 3rd largest indoor theme park in the world. The website only has Bahasa language, and appears a little limited in what it shows.

Has anyone been, and can you tell me what it's like? Thanks.

I've never been, but there's a lengthy English description here.

Been there shortly after opening.

If you have travelled anywhere internationally

and seen Disney, Universal, Summer Fairs in

Europe & North America, then this attraction

will be a downer !!

This is set up for LOCALS only with

limited travel exposure and cost a lot by local standard ( a clerk will have a hard time to take

his/her family of 2 adults & say 2 children to

enjoy ALL the attractions. he will have to spend

more than half his monthly income !! )

YES it is very pleasant INSIDE, air conditioned

under one roof, plenty of parking and additional facilities & attractions must be finished by now.

Let's say this is too expensive for the common

folk - so its only for upper middle class and

above - to enjoy this attraction.

Having seen once is more than enough.

This project is feasible even at the present cost level - due to the sheer volume of potential

customers around the City of Makassar.

BTW the beautiful Pantai Losari / Losari Beach Boulevard is thoroughly destroyed by the indiscriminate construction of incompatible

buildings by the elite who hold the power

& purse strings locally. I am not impressed

to say the least.

I have travelled widely to voice this assessment fairly.
