These place truly embodies its SLOGAN that " The Magic stays with you". One of the most amazing amusement park in Philippines.
Location: Sta. Rosa Laguna, Philippines
Enchanted Kingdom often abbreviated as EK, is one of the most must see amusement themed park here in the Philippines. Located at the inner part of Sta. Rosa Laguna, sitting at the total land area of 25 hectares. Firstly opened on October 19, 1995 which is 22 years ago (according to wikipedia). Annually they've got visited by 1.8 million people that enjoys their rides and attractions every year. The theme park opens in a different time every day but they are sure extend their operating hours every weekends when there are more people. Take note that they don't operate during Monday to Wednesday. These is really a place to spend your weekends or holidays with your Friends, family and children.
As for me, i spend my holiday that December 30, 2016 with my high school friends and have a lot of fun riding different rides and trying some of their attractions.
All of the rides were very exciting and fun, can't try it all since we have a goal of trying the most extreme ones especially the famous Space Shuttle. As we arrived at the park the first ride to try is the Disc-O Magic, not just because it's one of the extreme ones but also because it's near the main entrance. By the way rates at EK varies on holidays, weekends and weekdays. In our case since it's holiday we paid about 900 pesos w/c includes the AGILA and unlimited park's ride. Also, take note that they are not allowing you to bring your own food inside so, they are getting your snack while inspecting your bags. Better if you don't bring it anymore or leave it to your car if you have. Getting back to our next ride, we've tried also the Anchor's Away. Then to make our tour more exciting the next ride we tried is the EKstreme which is shown on the first photo above. The process is that from the bottom of the tower where you will got to sit and put you seat-belts on, you'll slowly go up. Little by little the tension is increasing and then when you reach the highest point and now enjoying the view of the whole amusement park, immediately the tower will drop you from the highest peak of 150 feet going down with just a glimpse of an eye and the rest was history :D. Tagged as the most scary ride at Enchanted Kingdom, coz these ride will totally take your soul away from you body hahaha. We also tried the Rio Grande and Jungle Log Jam, where you'll be extremely wet. So a bit of advise, bring your extra clothes hehe, though they offer there a machine that will dry out your clothes not totally, a bit wet yet already good to make you wear it again. After roving around the whole morning. Since we had, a late breakfast that day, we also had our late lunch. As I told you your not allowed to bring your own snacks inside yet, there are stalls there and some restaurants that can serve you delicious food.
Take some photo ops at the area, especially along the Rialto street where the road is covered with cobble stones and a very nice Venetian themed alleys and streets. Then, tried visiting the museums and take photos on the galleries.
When the afternoon was already setting, we're just in time on trying out the most fun and exciting ride of all the Space shuttle. For that day, it's a very long time of waiting until you can ride the shuttle since, everyone wants to try it and another is that, its a holiday season that day, so, the more the people the longer the line to deal with. But here's a technique, hehe I suggest that you wait until afternoon around 2-3pm, that time there will be no long lines and more fast way to ride the Space Shuttle since everyone is at their late lunch and most of people rest that time.
Then, as the night falls, like every other group of people there, we've finish the activity by riding the Wheel of Fate standing over 130 feet into the air. The perfect way to see and watch the busy themed park up above. Definitely a very good view. Especially for couples who had come for a date in the park.
Closing up our trip, these day has been a tiring, exciting, fun, thrilling and most of all a memorable one for us. Honestly, like what the slogan of Enchanted Kingdom says "the Magic Stays with You," and they never disappoint us. Truly, the Magic stays with us forever :).
