Great World Amusement Park

Great World Amusement Park was an entertainment complex along Kim Seng Road with theaters, opera stages, and amusement facilities spread across a large site. The venue included four cinemas, dining areas, and various performance spaces where shows took place regularly.

The park was founded in 1929 and was initially built on a former cemetery site. After 1941, a major film company took over operations and shaped the venue's direction for several decades.

The venue hosted opera performances and traditional dance shows that brought together artists from different cultures. Visitors could experience Chinese opera, Malay performances, and modern revue shows all in one evening.

The venue was centrally located and easily accessible by public transport, making it convenient for outings with family or friends. Visitors should plan to spend several hours to explore the different offerings and move between various shows and attractions.

After its reopening in the 1950s, the venue attracted many international visitors and became an important destination during major trade events. Its role as a gathering place for people from different countries made it a special landmark in the city's entertainment history.
