PARKS not dead! Well they’re not, especially if you take away the entrance fees! Take for example the Rainbow Magical Land mini theme park located right beside Robinsons Place Antipolo.

We’ve been to Robinsons Place Antipolo countless of times already but not once did we make a plan to go to Rainbow Magical Land and this mini theme park have always been there ever since the mall was built.

It’s not that we didn’t want to check it out, but mainly because they used to charge entrance fees on top of the ride fares just like all the other major theme parks that we have here in the country – Sky Ranch Tagaytay, Enchanted Kingdom and Star City.

Good news is some major theme parks are now also offering no entrance fees like Sky Ranch Pampanga and Fun Ranch in Ortigas and Alabang.

Rainbow Magical Land has only about a couple of theme park rides for kids anyway, so I think removing the entrance fees is a smart move that was long way overdue.

So we brought the kids and pamangkins to Rainbow Magical Land purchase some ride tickets and let them try out some of the rides.

The four older gremlins (Neo, Maya, Sky and Pia) tried the Twin Dragon and Spiral Jet while our little pamangkin Seth had a great time playing inside the Inflatable Slides and driving a Pedal Boat.

They also have a couple of “perya” games for those who are in to trying their luck at getting a stuff toy prize home as a souvenir.

HOW TO GET THERE:

If you’re coming from Manila, all PUVs going to Antipolo via Sumulong will pass by that area – take the LRT2 to Santolan, there are jeepney and UV Express terminals there that can take you straight to Rob Antipolo. Or, you can take the P2P from Robinsons Galleria to Robinsons Place Antipolo.
