The Wildlife Museum
Upon arriving, visitors can take pictures with the background of a luxurious pillared building that reminds us of the Temple of God Zeus in Greece. Carrying an educational conservation theme, this museum offers an exciting experience of learning a variety of animal species. Here, you can see animals preserved and exhibited in glass boxes. Because its primary purpose is conservation, the animals kept in this place are taken from the dead and not from deliberately hunted ones. There are at least around tens of thousands of species on display. If you bring your children to the Wildlife Museum, you can introduce them to animals they may never have seen or known. The museum's collection is indeed not only from Indonesia but also from other continents. Besides, children can also learn about ancient animals through replicas and dioramas. The indoor part of the museum is divided into several areas, namely the American, African, Asian, Australian, European, Arctic, and Antarctic Areas. All fields have unique animal dioramas with particular audiovisual and insectarium areas. The audiovisual area usually shows educational films about animals in the world, while the Insectarium allows visitors to see the various preserved insects up close.
Batu Secret Zoo
Unlike the museum, this place carries the concept of a modern zoo where visitors can see a variety of live animals in their respective enclosures. Located on a 14-hectare land, Batu Secret Zoo has hundreds of animal collections, most of which come from Asia and Africa. Not only that, but this place also has various exciting game rides that can trigger your adrenaline and adventurous souls. Navigating every area of the zoo will let you get to know a lot of animals you might haven’t seen before. You can also interact and take pictures directly with tame animals. However, make sure you’re accompanied by a professional officer when taking photographs. There are several exciting activities you must try here, one of which is Fantasy Land. This place is a relatively large playground equipped with a variety of game rides. Children can swim in fountain pools or feed animals while riding the Safari Farm Train. For those who want to do extreme things, try “tiger fishing.” Here, you can feed tigers by pulling them to you with fresh meat. This activity is equipped with qualified facilities and experienced officers, so it’s absolutely safe to do. Since the zoo area is pretty vast, the site manager provides an e-bike service you can rent at the cost of around 100 to 300 thousand Rupiahs per person. In addition to the two main tourist areas previously reviewed, Jatim Park 2 also has other interesting vacation areas, such as Eco Green Park, Batu Night Spectacular, and Predator Fun Park. All of these can be visited with a merged or individual ticket that comes in a variety of prices.
