Being one of Asia’s affordable holiday destinations, Malaysia invites thousands and thousands of visitors from all over the world to experience the “True Asia.”

While Malaysia is known for its endless shopping facilities, scrumptious street food, interesting attractions and beautiful islands, the country is also one of Asia’s key hubs for exciting theme parks giving tourists even more reasons to visit the country. Sunway Lagoon, Resorts World Genting and Legoland Malaysia are three of the most visited theme parks in the country. The list just doesn’t end there – Twentieth Century Fox has announced to open the brand’s first ever theme park in 2016. It would be a part of the popular Resorts World Genting located an hour away from the country’s capital, Kuala Lumpur.
 
Named the “Twentieth Century Fox World,” the 25-acre theme park will feature a full-fledged immersive entertainment experience to all visitors of all ages. Highlights of the park includes FOX’s most powerful and recognized film brands such as Ice Age, Rio, Planet of the Apes and Night at the Museum. With the drastic growing demand of theme parks with a movie-fantasy appeal along with Universal Studios and Disney, this theme park by FOX studios has been a long time coming. The estimated cost of the project would be more than $300 million and would feature numerous rides and attractions based on FOX movies.

Malaysia has been a major tourist hub in Asia and would continue to be the same in the years to come.
