This is a large park makes my family and I so amazed with attractions places that separate from each other. We can choose the park we go first and we choose zoo. We saw many animals like rabbits, deers, little bear, hedgehog, owl and uwa-uwa. Uwa-uwa is like a monkey with the bigger body than usually, and sometimes scream like “waakk waakk”. After that, we went to the top of Meratus Mountain and get through a pool and the way is so high steep and narrow (enough for two cars only). At the top we saw the amazing view.
