Undersea World In The Mall

An undersea world is created with balloons at the center court of Kinta City Shopping Center. This should be a playland specially made for the children to enjoy their school holiday. I arrive here quite early and the playland is not opened yet. Anyway, this undersea world will soon be crowded not by fishes or corals but the most energetic kids that never get tired when having fun. And one thing for sure, that's the time for parents to spend.
