Recently, they added a new attraction – dinosaurs! Yes, dinosaurs can also be seen at the Dinosaur Encounter Zoo Melaka!
Introducing Dinosaur Encounter in Melaka
Dinosaur Encounter Zoo Melaka was first opened to the public on Christmas Day, 2020. It is a great new attraction for all Zoo Melaka visitors, especially the little ones who adore dinosaurs so much that they can remember their names!
It contains over 100 dinosaur species as well as 150 dinosaurs that are the same size as they are in real life. Dinosaur Encounter Zoo Melaka has an area of 5 acres in the forest park, making it the largest dinosaur interactive park in Southeast Asia.
Located in Zoo Melaka, Dinosaur Encounter makes you feel like you’ve stepped back into prehistoric ages. You may view life-sized dinosaurs including triceratops, T-Rex, Velociraptors, and many others. There are other types of dinosaurs at the park, such as Brachiosaurus. You can also hear the actual sound effects of these prehistoric animals. It can feel so real that you’ll want to flee from these gigantic beasts, just like the people in the movies.
This dinosaur theme park is set outdoors, with walkways and bridges that provide a true experience of the wild. The broad pathway allows you to enjoy Dinosaur Encounter easily, especially if you have strollers or wheelchairs.
Step into this enormous woodland park surrounded by many species and challenge your child to see how many dinosaurs you can recognise as you discover them along the walkway! At the Dinosaur Encounter, you’d get to meet some friendly rangers as well!
