“An Unforgettable Adventure at the Lost World of Tambun!” The Lost World of Tambun is an amazing escape for families, friends, and nature lovers! We had a fantastic time exploring this unique theme park nestled within the lush limestone hills of Ipoh. From thrilling water rides and an exciting wave pool to the relaxing hot springs, there’s truly something for everyone. The petting zoo was a highlight, especially for the kids, who loved interacting with animals up close. We also enjoyed the Lost World Hot Springs & Spa, where we could unwind in natural mineral hot springs after a long day of fun. The nighttime activities were just as magical, with light shows and serene surroundings under the stars. The staff was friendly, helpful, and made sure we had a safe, enjoyable experience. Whether you’re an adventurer or just looking for a day of relaxation, Lost World of Tambun is a perfect destination. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Malaysia, especially if you’re near Ipoh!
