 Dunia Fantasi or 'Fantasy World' / 'Fantasy Land' is a fun and theme
park designed to entertain the visitors into the fascinating worlds of
modern science and technology. A recent addition to Jakarta's growing
recreation facilities is the Fantasy Land, a 9.5 hectares (23.75 acres)
entertainment park located inside the Ancol Dreamland. Planned to
eventually become a part of a 200-hectares (500-acres) park designed to
usher the visitors into the fascinating world of modern science and
technology, the present facility takes them on an imaginative tour of
Old Jakarta, Africa, America, Indonesia, Europe, Asia and the Palace of
Dolls. Each of the areas is designed to give the visitor a feel of the
region he is visiting through features and architecture of the area at a
certain period of its history and by the use of animated puppets in the
Palace of Dolls.
This colossal recreational resort faces the
enchanting Jakarta Bay. Its prime attraction is Fantasyland, an
amusement park that keeps children, especially, entertained the entire
day. Fantasy world is the host of many of the amusement rides and the
most popular of them is a roller coaster ride called Halilinter. The
park has other themes also. Art buffs and tourists who search of
souvenirs should visit Pasar Seni art and handicraft market. Others
might like to check out Sea World (a giant aquarium) for an educational
tour on marine life or Ancol Water Park for yet more fun. The Ancol
Marina operates as the gateway to the neighboring Thousand Islands. The
facilities take visitors on imagination tours of Africa, America and
Indonesia through some breath taking games. The park also offers a
number of restaurants and souvenir shops.
