My five favorite Enchanted Kingdom rides
The amusement park or perya season has come. We can finally see different types of our usual carnival rides such as the Ferris wheel, carousel, caterpillar, Vikings, and so much more. We can also see colorful lights around different barangays. However, Santa Rosa, Laguna has its own kind of traditional park, more magical, vivid, safe, and sound – the Enchanted Kingdom.
EK is a theme park in the Philippines. Known for being a famous tourist attraction, families, couples, friends, and educational trips for teachers and students usually visit the place. With a land area of 25 hectares, it is definitely bigger than your usual perya. The amusement park is even a member of the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions or IAAPA.
