A huge park facility with a wide variety of playgrounds available for all ages of children. And it’s free!!! Bring a tent if you visit here because you will spend the whole day there. They also offer several paid activities, including an indoor playground and bike rides around the park. It’s recommended to bring your own food and drink because no supermarket/kombini nearby, but they have restaurant inside the building.
