Menara Taming Sari: Melaka Revolving Tower

Friday, January 2, 2009



Does the tower look alike the Space Shot at Genting Highlands Theme Park?



This is the Taming Sari Tower. The design is based on Taming Sari Keris and built using Gyro/Switzerland technology. It is a 360 degree viewing tower standing at the height of 110 meter. The capacity is 66 passengers at one time.



It is also known as Melaka Revolving Tower. It has revolving observation cabin which provide 360 degree view of Malacca including the Malacca Straits and the historical places.



The cost per person is RM 10 with MyKad. Isn't it cheap compared to RM 15 of the Eyes of Malaysia? The duration of each ride is 7 minutes. The weird thing is why do they specify the race in the ticket?



The queue for the day is quite long. However, due to the large capacity, we only need to wait till the third round for the ride. Looking to the hot weather, it is better to quench the thirst with drinks while queuing up.



We are now in the observation cabin and ready to revolve up to the sky!! Look at the smile =P



The ride is 'activated'. Forgot to mention that the cabin is air conditioned. While on the ride, the will be musics played and a recorded voice on welcoming message as well as the introductory to the view/ride.









The Eyes of Malaysia



The maritime museum






UMNO Melaka Museum






The Malacca straits



Can you spot Aldy Hotel?



Dataran Pahlawan






Japanese Aircraft



We are on the most top!



Standing at the height of 80m (the total height of tower is 110 m) with the sight of view of 5km.

tq for the compliment

Wish list

Due to numerous support from my friends, I will be looking forward to own a DSLR camera. However, it will be a long wait as I need money input. Hope the year of ox will bring me an Ox-picious year and fasten the wait. To donate money to me, please contact me. To give a few cents, please do 'what you should do' in my blog.

=P
