点评:Magicland, formerly known as Wonderland, is the largest amusement park in Nigeria. It's very popular with kids and the larger Abuja 'populace'. Magicland is fondly referred to as Nigeria's Disney Land! 😄 How apt, considering that entertainment complexes as sprawling as Magicland are few and far between in Nigeria. Magicland is located close to the National Stadium and the Abuja City Gate, on Constitution Avenue, so it's unmissable when you're driving in from the airport.
Entry in to Magicland is free, which is awesome. This means that you purchase individual tickets based on the price for each ride. All tickets are nonrefundable. They have 100, 200, 500 and 1,000 Naira tickets that come in the form of tiny stubs; (refer to a sample picture of one). Ride prices are very reasonable, with the cheapest ride costing 600 Naira (about 80 U.S Cents or 74 Euro Cents), and the most expensive at 1,500 Naira (about 2 U.S Dollars and 1.86 Euro Cents). This makes Magicland a very affordable park. It's worth mentioning that Magicland has a breathtakingly beautiful background in the form of a huge mountain-like rock. Refer to some pictures I posted. It forms an absolutely gorgeous backdrop to Magicland Amusement Park! ⛰️😍
Magicland has about 24 Rides, (listed from cheapest to priciest). They are: COW BOY, FROG JUMP, MINI WHEEL, HAPPY WORM, CAPSULE, FIRE FIGHTER, JUNGLE TRUCK, ROCK CLIMBING, BOAT RIDE, BOUNCING CASTLE, AEROPLANE, CAROUSEL, CRAZY CLOWN, FLYING BICYCLE, BIG WORM, WONDER WHEEL, ROLLER COASTER, BUMPER CAR, FLYING TOWER, SUPERSPIN, PIRATE SHIP, DISCO, WATERSPLASH and PENDULUM. My kids went on just about every ride and loved all of them.
There's an indoor FUN ARCADE with lots of colourful, fun car/motorcycle gaming machines. Was disappointed that their Mechanical Bull wasn't working. My kids really wanted to ride that. It cost 200 Naira per coin to play on the rides at the Fun Arcade. Most of them needed more than one coin per round; still very reasonable. There was JUNGLE LAND- a gym, soft-play type enclosure for younger kids. The park's toilets were located inside Fun City Arcade and they were well kept.
Magicland's food options were a big letdown. It was mostly African Dishes available, with not much to appeal to kid's palates. Stuff like Burgers, Pizza, Hotdogs, Slush and so on were no where to be found. For the Snacks, it was also a very boring selection, (refer to my posted pics). At least they had Popcorn and Cotton Candy. I saw a place called Arewa Suya outside, as well as a Shawarma & Ice Cream by the gate/main entrance, but don't know if they are operational. Suya- (for those that don't know), is traditional Nigerian spiced and smoked meat on skewers. It's a classic Nigerian delicacy and comfortable street food.
I also noticed a Gift Shop called DE PARTY SHOP and another Bazaar like booth selling traditional and western clothing. Though I think Magicland is an awesome entertainment facility, some major criticisms I have are that most of the rides seem really cranky, old and rickety. Some rides looked like they hadn't been working for ages. Though there was a sizeable crowd when we where there, Magicland seemed a bit lifeless to tell you the truth. There just wasn't that 'thrilling, energectic and exciting' vibe you get when you're at an amusement park. You know the feeling I mean right?
One of my daughters said that the place was 'a bit dead'. 😄 There weren't any colorful parades, any vibrant shows, any mascots strolling around or any upbeat music playing. They should endeavour to improve that part by introducing some type of attention grabbing entertainment, even if it's for a couple of hours over the course of the day. They also need to build more eateries and food outlets because for a park this expansive, there choices are rather limited. Would have looked to have seen Popcorn, Ice Cream, Candy Floss and Snack stalls littered all over the park.. Magicland definitely needs a face lift or a refurbishment or an upgrade. Everything looked worn, tired, faded and somewhat neglected.
All in all, we had a really fun, 'magical' day at Magicland with family, and some of my household staff. There were 11 of us and we thoroughly enjoyed our day here with lots of laughs, joy and funny moments. I really appreciate that they've kept their prices low! 🙏🏼 This is a park I can see myself returning to, time and time again- with my kids, or without them. You can just lazily stroll along the winding lanes, 'perceive' the attractive and well manicured environs and just converse with a friend or family member. I wish there were more places like this in Nigeria, but unfortunately, there aren't, so for us- Magicland has to do! Great place for kid's entertainment! Fun, Fun and more Fun awaits you @ Magicland, so COME ONE...COME ALL!!! 🤩 Highly, highly, highly recommended 👌🏽👍🏽👏🏼
翻译:Magicland原名Wonderland,是尼日利亚最大的游乐园。它很受孩子们和更多阿布贾“民众”的欢迎。 Magicland 被人们亲切地称为尼日利亚的迪士尼乐园! 😄 考虑到像 Magicland 这样庞大的娱乐综合体在尼日利亚很少见,这真是太恰当了。 Magicland 位于宪法大道上,靠近国家体育场和阿布贾城门,因此从机场驾车前来时不容错过。
进入Magicland是免费的,这太棒了。这意味着您根据每次乘车的价格购买单独的门票。所有门票均不可退款。他们有 100、200、500 和 1,000 奈拉门票,这些门票以小存根的形式出现; (请参阅其中的示例图片)。乘车价格非常合理,最便宜的乘车费用为 600 奈拉(约 80 美分或 74 欧分),最贵为 1,500 奈拉(约 2 美元和 1.86 欧分)。这使得 Magicland 成为一个非常实惠的公园。值得一提的是,Magicland 拥有令人惊叹的美丽背景,是一块巨大的山状岩石。参考我发的一些图片。它构成了 Magicland 游乐园绝对华丽的背景! ⛰️😍
Magicland 大约有 24 个游乐设施(按从最便宜到最贵的顺序排列)。它们是:牛童、青蛙跳、迷你轮、快乐虫、太空舱、消防员、丛林车、攀岩、乘船、弹跳城堡、飞机、旋转木马、疯狂小丑、飞行自行车、大虫、神奇轮、过山车、碰碰车、飞行塔、超级旋转、海盗船、迪斯科、水花和钟摆。我的孩子们几乎参加了所有的骑行活动并且喜欢所有的骑行活动。
这里有一个室内游乐场,里面有许多色彩缤纷、有趣的汽车/摩托车游戏机。对他们的机械牛不工作感到失望。我的孩子们真的很想骑它。玩 Fun Arcade 的游乐设施每枚硬币 200 奈拉。他们中的大多数人每轮需要超过一枚硬币;还是很有道理的。还有丛林乐园——一个适合年幼孩子的健身房、软体游戏区。公园的厕所位于 Fun City Arcade 内,维护得很好。
Magicland 的食物选择令人非常失望。主要是非洲菜肴,没有太多吸引孩子的口味。像汉堡、披萨、热狗、雪泥等东西都找不到。对于小吃,这也是一个非常无聊的选择(请参阅我发布的图片)。至少他们有爆米花和棉花糖。我在外面看到一个叫 Arewa Suya 的地方,门口/正门旁边还有一家 Shawarma & Ice Cream,但不知道他们是否还在营业。 Suya-(对于那些不知道的人),是尼日利亚传统的五香熏肉串。这是一道经典的尼日利亚美食,也是舒适的街头小吃。
我还注意到一家名为 DE PARTY SHOP 的礼品店和另一个类似集市的摊位,出售传统和西方服装。虽然我认为 Magicland 是一个很棒的娱乐设施,但我的一些主要批评是,大多数游乐设施看起来真的很古怪、陈旧且摇摇欲坠。有些游乐设施看起来已经很久没有使用了。虽然我们去的时候人很多,但说实话,Magicland 看上去有点死气沉沉。没有你在游乐园时感受到的那种“惊险、充满活力和令人兴奋”的氛围。你知道我的意思吧?
我的一个女儿说这个地方“有点死气沉沉”。 😄 没有任何色彩缤纷的游行,没有任何充满活力的表演,没有任何吉祥物四处走动,也没有任何欢快的音乐播放。他们应该通过引入某种吸引注意力的娱乐活动来努力改进这一部分,即使是一天中的几个小时。他们还需要建造更多的餐馆和食品店,因为对于如此广阔的公园来说,选择相当有限。本来会看到公园里到处都是爆米花、冰淇淋、棉花糖和小吃摊。Magicland 绝对需要整容、翻新或升级。一切看起来都破旧、疲倦、褪色,而且有些被忽视了。
总而言之,我们和家人以及我的一些家庭工作人员在 Magicland 度过了非常有趣、“神奇”的一天。我们一共有 11 个人,我们在这里度过了愉快的一天,充满了欢笑、欢乐和有趣的时刻。我真的很感激他们保持低价! 🙏🏼 这是一个我可以看到自己一次又一次回到的公园——带着我的孩子们,或者没有他们。您可以沿着蜿蜒的小巷慵懒地漫步,“感知”迷人且修剪整齐的环境,并与朋友或家人交谈。我希望尼日利亚有更多这样的地方,但不幸的是,没有,所以对我们来说——Magicland 必须做!孩子娱乐的好地方!乐趣、乐趣、更多乐趣在 Magicland 等待着您,所以来吧……来吧! 🤩强烈强烈强烈推荐👌🏽👍🏽👏🏼
