Pedas Hot Spring Park is a world-apart from the one that I went to in Bentong. Of course - it is not a free park - as an adult you need to pay RM8 to enter the place. And RM5 for kids. Hence, I'm not surprise to find that the place was actually cleaner and well-kept in comparison to the one in Bentong. And also I believe, it is a very, very safe place for all ages.
Somehow, someway... the place made me feel like as if I was at an ordinary water-park! Except for the fact that the water in the pools was hot. Indeed, the place has all those usual things that you may find at an ordinary water-park...the slides, big pools, plenty of changing/shower rooms, a small kiosk selling f&b, staff going around doing their chores etc etc. And, off course, unlike those 'pools' in Bentong Hot-Spring, the ones here were all properly done/built... bricks, cement, tiles and all. No, you definitely would not find those 'slimy-greeny-thingy' lying down at the bottom of the pool! Happy?
Having said all that, I actually ended up spending the rest of the day only at ONE pool - the 'jacuzzi'-type-pool. This one is the very first pool you will see after entering the main gate of the park. . And I truly enjoyed it! Even my mom, who was a bit worried at first that she might got 'swept' away by those 'burbling' water, after much persuasion, eventually agreed to 'dip' herself into the pool and only got out of it almost an hour later!
The place is only an hour drive from Kuala Lumpur city. I took the North-South Highway/PLUS and took the Pedas-Linggi Exit. You could also take the Senawang Exit. It is actually only 13km away from Seremban town. From Seremban, you could also reach the place by taking the old trunk road to Tampin.
Would I go to this place again in the near future? Why not? As far as I know, this is the only proper-paying- natural hot water- cum- water park nearest to Kuala Lumpur. And as I've said earlier.... I love that jacuzzi-hot-water-pool. And yes... no greeny-slimy-thingy!
p/s: 'Spicy' in Malay is 'Pedas'. Same as the word 'Hot'... it can also means 'spicy' in Malay...
