Latest Excitement in Penang – Escape Theme Park
If you’re looking for fun things to do in Penang, then you must surely visit the Escape Theme Park located in Teluk Bahang, Penang.
Opened in December 2012, it has become a popular escape for fun-seeking Malaysian city dwellers with their children and even tourists. Nestled in the middle of a forest, visitors will easily forget the stress of city living as they’re challenged with thrilling, exciting obstacles… and do what monkeys would do!
What do monkeys do you ask? Monkey business of course! This is in fact the theme of the park – a visit will help reminisce our childhood from many years ago when we used to climb and swing from tree to tree.
Currently only the forest adventure section is open to public, with 80 different experiences and adventures. Including a 20-meter high leap through the air, this will surely help you forget all the hustle and bustle of city living.
They also have a suspended bridge that links you from tree to tree. Apart from climbing trees, you can make like a gecko and climb up their two-storey high towers too!
There are various adventures catered for both adults and children. There are caves to explore, trails to follow, slides to… well, slide on, and many others that are suitable for parents and their children to enjoy together.
If you are looking to experience sleeping in the forest, there are tree houses available that will surely be an unforgettable experience.
Escape Theme Park is the latest attraction to hit the island of Penang, with an estimated investment cost of RM18 million; the forest adventure section is the first of three sections in the entire development master plan. The other two sections are a water theme park and a hotel in the forest, targeted to complete in 2017.
As the name suggests, the park is truly a place for city dwellers to escape and be reconnected with nature and the environment.

槟城最夯玩点Escape主题公园
要问现在槟城什么地方最好玩，直落巴巷Escape主题公园的名字肯定不会冷场。
这个才在2012年12月正式开门，让城市小孩做一次回归树林“逃亡”的去处，已经成为槟城及国内外“爱玩”份子在寻找“好玩点”的一个选择。因为在这里，大家可以把城市里的束缚和压力都抛到九霄云外，换一个完全陌生而又紧张刺激的环境，做猴子们才会做的事情。
“做猴子们做的事？”没有错，这还是Escape主题公园的广告词呢。因为在这里，人们玩的就是在树上攀爬戏耍，把憋闷在内心深处的城市生活压力把释放出来，也让人们通过离开地面，回到树上的树上游戏，找回我们可能已经很久以前就已经忘记的轻松快乐感觉。
Escape主题公园目前开放的是森林探险区。那里有80个“探险”玩法，包括20公尺高的跳台让你尽情的释放自己，一跳解千愁，把身上的重担都给跳脱掉。
空间索桥则可以让人从一个塔楼穿越到另一个塔楼，从一棵树走到另一棵树上。另外，除了可以爬树，还可以沿着墙壁爬上两层楼高的屋子。
除了拥有供成人在树顶、屋顶攀爬穿越的游戏外，探险区也有专为小孩子设计的洞穴探险部分、斜坡快速滑险，现代父母们儿时的游戏，如竹筒枪、陀螺、竹蜻蜓及玻 璃弹珠，纸上探险游戏等。
公园内还有建有“树屋”，想要体验树上生活和在树上欣赏不同视野和感受的朋友，可以租一间树屋，在树上度过一段美好时光。
Escape公园是槟城最新鲜登场的旅游新景点，这个耗资1800万令吉打造的新公园，总占地面积44英亩。才在今年11月开放的森林探险区是整个计划三个主要分区之一，另外两个分区是水上乐园及树顶酒店，三个计划要完全开放需要等到2017年。
公园以Escape为名就是取从拥挤的城市逃亡出来的意思，回归大自然和提倡爱护环境的概念。
Escape 公园入门票：
成人 60令吉
儿童 45令吉
