Written By Unknown on Sunday, 3 August 2014 | 06:44

Ancol Dreamland in the northern coast of capital city Jakarta has continued to be one of the favorite holiday destinations for families, especially during the Idul Fitri festival.

Up to 78,000 people had visited on the second day of Idul Fitri on Tuesday, while its Fantasy World attraction drew up to 7,000 visitors, Ancol's corporate communication manager Metty Yan Harahap said.

On the first day of Idul Fitri on Monday, up to 75,000 people had visited Ancol, she said.

"The number is up from last year," she added.

Ancol Dreamland offers various attractions such as the Fantasy World, Atlantis Water Adventure, Ocean Dream Samudra, Dreamland, Arts Market, and Ocean Ecopark.

Ancol Beautiful Beach meanwhile was also crowded, as it was a more affordable alternative destination, with an entry ticket of only Rp25,000 per person, to enjoy and play in the beach as long as they wished.

Although the temperature on Tuesday had reached 30 degrees Celsius, people were not discouraged to play in the beach, especially children.


Along the coast, families meanwhile spread mats to enjoy the sea breeze and scenery.

A mother, Mrs Andi, said she had come from Depok, West Java, along with her child Anggi and grandchild Aditya, and wished to enjoy the Idul Fitri holiday as she had not visited the beach for a long time.

Another visitor Erni from Tangerang, Banten, meanwhile said that she has been visiting Ancol on Idul Fitri every year along with her husband, children, and nephews.

She said Ancol Beach remained her favorite destination because its entry ticket was cheap.

Panca, who had come with 11 family members, said that Ancol Beach still remained his family's favorite destination although it was very crowded.

"I was indeed disturbed, but it is affordable and located not far from our home. Moments ago, we had taken a boat trip and played in the water with the children," he said.
