Worth every penny especially if you are a nature lover. Better come in the morning (before 8am) if you hate crowded. I would suggest for you to get a fast lane ticket for train if you can afford it. Please have a light breakfast too before your walk. No signal/weak telco signal, so please at least prepare some cash with you (in case you want to buy something).

There are many exciting activities, the crowds are not too crowded, and there is no need to queue. A lot of gaming experience, worth the price of admission. But please pay attention to your own safety

My very first time experience to Entopia and it was wonderful. My son and I enjoy catching the butterflies at the same time we could gain a lot of interesting info about this unique creature. Not only that we have been exposed more about entomology which refer to insects related scientific study. Besides, I love the indoor and outdoor concepts where I feel like I was in fairytale world. Haha don't be so serius but in overall keep it up the good job and please maintain the excellent hospitality, Entopia!
