JAKARTA - East Java Governor Khofifah Indar Parawansa took her grandchildren and their families to visit Jatim Park 3 in Batu City to take advantage of the Eid 2022 holiday. The former Minister of Social Affairs invited her granddaughter Aisyah Nabila (Aila) along with four children and a daughter-in-law on Wednesday 4 May .

So far, said Khofifah, she (her grandson) and her parents live in Jakarta, so she can take advantage of the short time for the Eid holiday.

To his family, Governor Khofifah took the time to explain about the facilities at Jatim Park 3, including rides for games and educational tours that were served by visitors, one of which was "Dino Park".

"As the name implies, 'Dino Park' is a vehicle where visitors can explore the prehistoric world during the dinosaur era," he said as quoted by Antara, Thursday, May 5.

Inside Dino Park, there are several rides such as The Age of Dinosaurs, Triceratops, The Jungle, Ice Age, Live With Dino, Root Bridge and Active Fun House, and Millenial Glow Garden.

"The millennial glow garden presents digital IT-based tourist rides with extraordinary lights, so they can be felt by children from toddlers to the end of old age," he said.

On the sidelines of his visit, Governor Khofifah also greeted the public and took the time to serve selfies of visitors who packed the tourist rides area.

Meanwhile, Jatim Park 3 has become one of the favorite tourist destinations for domestic tourists from various regions during the Lebaran holiday season this time.

According to the Rio Group's Jatim Park Holding Staff, visitors began to flock to Jatim Park 3 tourism since the end of Eid and an estimated 7,000 people a day.

"The number of visitors can increase until the weekend, and will decrease before the holidays are over or when residents have returned," he said.

Despite being visited by thousands of visitors, his party is committed to promoting strict health protocols and does not hesitate to remind visitors who are careless.

"We require visitors to wear masks and provide handwashing stations at several points that have been provided and activate the PeduliLindung application before entering the tourist area. A vaccination booth is also provided for people who have not been vaccinated with the third dose," Rio added.
