Vision City Video Games Park, Resorts World Genting

My brother and I love to play video games, sit on kiddie rides and play arcade games. During the school holidays, my mommy brought us to Vision City Video Games Park at Resorts World Genting for some great fun!



This is one of the largest arcade centers in the country with a total of 429 units of machinery available, offering 4 different types of games, namely video games, redemption games, kiddie rides and skill games. The total number of video games available is 294, including the latest state-of-the-art video machines from Japan, Taiwan and China. The centre's yearly product refresh cycle covers about 10% of the total number of machines so you can enjoy new excitement all the time. 






Some of these games depend on luck and skill. If you are good, you can take home a plushie on the spot. Some games are played for fun. We enjoyed ourselves very much.





All these games can be played by reloading money to the eZiCash card at the counters or machines. If you play the redemption games and hit certain targets, the scores are converted to e-tickets and stored in the eZiCash cards for a maximum of 2 years. The e-tickets can be used to redeem merchandise at GRC too. 



I am sure you will have lots of fun here. The arcade games here are for the young and old, you will find some that you really like. If you come up to Resorts World Genting, make sure you visit Vision City Video Games Park for some family fun. I wish to come here again soon. 

The other exciting thing happening is the opening of the world's first 20th Century Fox Theme Park next year. I can't wait for the opening!

Soul of Shaolin & Genting International Children's Festival Experience

A few days ago, my parents brought me to Genting Highlands as I was invited by the PR team of Resorts World Genting. Thanks for letting me be a kid blogger to cover events there. I love to visit Resort World Genting because there is always so much to see and do there. We watched the Soul of Shaolin theatrical show at Genting International Show Room. This show was about Hui Guang's story when he was forced to be abandon by his mom, how he became a Shaolin monk and in the end reunited with his mom. To know more about the story, read my earlier blog HERE


This is the first time I watched such an interesting kungfu performance live on stage. I could not believe that they could do all the dangerous acts.





The story was very interesting and the I enjoyed the whole show. There are 2 shows at 9pm or 4pm from 28 May to 26 June 2017. There will be two shows at 4pm and 9pm on 24 June. A total of 22 shows are scheduled, with each screening lasting 90 minutes (with 10 minutes intermission).

Another interesting show at Sky Avenue is the Genting International Children's Festival where there are “Cheers & Pom: Cheerleading,” to be held at Level 1 of the mall, “Storyland: Cosplay Meet & Greet” at Level 2, and “Street Beats: Brass Ensemble” at Level 3. Two other activities are “Paradise: Forest Fairies Ballet Dance,” to be held at First World Rainforest, and Boulevard's Parade at Genting Grand Open Car Park.

I enjoyed the music of the "Street Beats: Brass Ensemble" very much.


I also loved the “Storyland: Cosplay Meet & Greet” where I saw Snow White, Beauty & the Beast, Sailor Moon, Joker, Naruto and many more characters.







This Genting International Children's Festival will be from 27 May to 11 June 2017. Come here and enjoy all the great dances and music this school holidays. My family had a memorable and great experience. Looking forward to my next Genting trip soon.
