The 23-acre Discovery Park is a new tourism hub located in the RM20 billion Gamuda Cove.
Gamuda Land’s Discovery Park opened its doors on Jan 17. The 23-acre park is a new tourism hub filled with thrilling activities located within the RM20 billion Gamuda Cove township in Bandar Gamuda Cove, Selangor. Operating from 10am to 10pm, it is expected to attract 15,000 visitors from Jan 18 to Feb 9, with a series of Chinese New Year activities scheduled for every weekend.
“What differentiates Gamuda Land’s township from others is our mindful planning and to be able to bring all the components together to make the town work. Similarly, we strategically inject fun and excitement into Discovery Park while being mindful of nature and the environment, safety and the surrounding community,” said group director of leasing, retail and malls Herbie Tan in a press release on Jan 17.
One of the activities is indoor go-karting Headline.
The Discovery Park has two recreational zones — Hangout Village and Adventure Park. Attractions include Southeast Asia’s first Aerobar, a beach pool club featuring a 5m diving platform and water pool, a purpose-built rope course, indoor go-karting as well as F&B outlets. Some activities will be fully operational in March and the first phase of the park is expected to be completed by the third quarter of this year.
