Tips for visiting Kidzania


Since the entrance fees are pricey, it’s wise to plan your time in Kidzania as best as possible.

There are 99 jobs available in Kidzania KL. One session of visit (5 hours) is definitely not enough to cover all jobs.

Fees Structure
Age
Guest
Fee
Ages: 0 – 1
Baby
Free
Ages: 2 – 3
Toddler
RM 35
Ages: 4 – 17
Kid (Malaysian)
RM 55
Ages: 4 – 17
Kid (International)
RM 75
Ages: 18 – 59
Adult (Malaysian)
RM 35
Ages: 18 – 59
Adult (International)
RM 50
Ages: 60+
Senior
RM 30

Proper plan will ensure your kids to get a least 5 jobs done.

Kids below 8 years old must be accompanied by an adult inside Kidzania So, need to buy an adult ticket worth RM35.

If kids more than 8 years old and you’re confident that your child can be independent in Kidzania alone then she/he can enter without you tagging along. This would save you some money.

Kidzania tickets can be bought on the day of visit at the ticket counter or can also buy online. It’s wise to buy the tickets online before going to Kidzania because you’ll never know how long the queue will be. Do remember to print your online tickets and bring to Kidzania. There’s no need to join the normal queue with online tickets. You can directly go to the far right counter to get your security tags.

If possible, avoid going to Kidzania on school holidays, public holidays or weekends.
Especially if you want to bring a toddler or child below 7 years old. Kidzania will be so crowded with many people on those holidays.

Else, you need to plan before visiting Kidzania.  

  School holidays , public holidays and weekend: 2 sessions
10am – 3pm
4pm – 9pm
(5 hours for each session)

 Weekdays one session from 10am – 5pm. 7 hours!

First thing to do after entering Kidzania is to cash the RM50 kidzos cheque at CIMB bank.

Most activities (except TV3 studio and Acting Academy) take 20 minutes to be completed. Be prepared to queue for a long time. Especially during school holidays, public holidays and weekends.

日本分类垃圾的学问

还没出发前朋友已经再三叮嘱,住在他家时要把垃圾分类。

在朋友名古屋的家学了分类垃圾的学问:


在日本,你如果你不严格的执行垃圾分类的话,将面临巨额的罚款,在以住宅团地为单位的区域社会,落下个不履行垃圾分类的名声,那可是丢人的事了。


日本通常将垃圾分为4类:


1 一般垃圾,包括厨余类、纸屑类、草木类、包装袋类、皮革制品类、容器类、玻璃类、餐具类、非资源性瓶类、橡胶类、塑料类、棉质白色衬衫以外的衣服毛线类。


2 可燃性资源垃圾,包括报纸 (含传单、广告纸)、纸箱、纸盒、杂志(含书本、小册子)、旧布料 (含毛毯、棉质白色衬衫、棉质床单)、装牛奶饮料的纸盒子。
3 不燃性资源垃圾,包括饮料瓶(铝罐、铁罐)、茶色瓶、无色透明瓶、可以直接再利用的瓶类。
4 可破碎处理的大件垃圾,包括小家电类(电视机、空调机、冰箱/柜、洗衣机)、金属类、家具类、自行车、陶瓷器类、不规则形状的罐类、被褥、草席、长链状物(软管、绳索、铁丝、电线等)。


在日本,丢弃饮料瓶子之前需要以下五个步骤。


1、喝光或倒光。
2、简单水洗。

3、去掉瓶盖,撕掉标签。

4、踩扁。
5、根据各地的垃圾收集规定在“资源垃圾”日拿到指定地点,或者丢到商场或方便店设置 的塑料瓶回收箱。


 在日本垃圾回收的时间是固定的,错过了就要等下一次。比如厨余垃圾被叫做“生垃圾”,因为它会腐败和产生味道,因此一周有两次回收的时间。每年12月,市民会收到一份年历,每天的颜色不同,这些颜色分别代表不同垃圾的回收时间。


丢垃圾需要专门的垃圾袋,每种垃圾有自己的颜色分类,袋子有系列号,每个地区只能用自己地区的垃圾袋。但是一般来说不用专门购买,超市购物会送这样的垃圾袋,有的超市塑料袋要收钱,也就相当于用1、2日元买一个垃圾袋当购物袋。

印章

日本车站或名胜地通常都设有一个小柜台,上面系了一枚印章,章上不仅刻有该车站或名胜地的名字,还有该地的名胜特产,比如热海车站的印章中间刻有热气腾腾的温泉、樱花盛开、果实累累,上方写有“温泉香弥漫,日本第一温泉街”。如果说车站是进入当地的门户,那小小一方印章就是它最简洁的名片。收集这些印章,日后翻看起来,重温当时旅行的心境,回味无穷。很可惜的是在旅途中遗失了一些

生病了

名古屋位于海边,天气比东京冷。就因为这样我生病了......
我什么药都有带就是没带止咳药水.....连续咳了几天

在AEON买了900YEN咳药


也顺便买了今天的早餐,午餐,晚餐和明天的早餐

便当,面包,杯面, 水,果汁,绿茶冰淇淋,豆沙饼,寿司等等

日本的Apaato



日本的Apaato(Apartment)

这就是朋友在名古屋的家。每个月的租金要1500马币.....只有一间浴室房间和厨房是连在一起的。屋里只提供热水器和冷气机(也有暖汽功能)。

电压

日本比马来西亚的电压低,所以不可以同一时间开很多电器。就因为我的无知,我把暖气和微波炉同一时间开让整间家停电。幸好只要把微波炉关掉就没事。还是觉得很险.....如果没有暖气我是会冻死的



神户稻荷神社



神户稻荷神社
在特殊的日子里更会有很多人们去神社参拜,比如:新年、节分、日本儿童节以及其他节日。根据日本传统,新人们会在神社里举行婚礼;新生儿出生几天后也会被带到神社去祈福。
先到神社前的水池边用一个长柄木勺净手,然后到屋脊两边翘起的神社拜殿前,往带木条格的善款箱里扔点零钱,把手拍几下,合十祈祷。有的拜殿前还挂有很粗的麻绳,祈祷者摇动几下,撞得麻绳上的风铃发出响声。







将不理想的签留在神社内希望能化解厄运
