Trans Studio is the world's largest indoor theme park (as of 2009), located in Makassar, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The 20,000 m2 wide and 20 meters high indoor theme park beats Disneyland in the United States and Lotte World in South Korea, which spans around 1.7 hectares indoor [2][3]. Trans Studio is built on the area of 12.7 hectares with investment up to IDR 1 trillion (approximately USD 104 million). The indoor theme park was inaugurated by the Vice President of Indonesia, Jusuf Kalla, exactly on September 9, 2009 (09-09-09)[3]. Trans Studio itself is a part of The Trans Studio World project, which will include Trans Walk and Rodeo Drive, Trans Studio, Trans hotels, and offices of Mega Bank[4]. Under the management of PT. Trans Kalla, the Mega Development Project will provide an integrated development, comprising not only an indoor theme park, but also shopping mall, supermarket, hotel, office area, recreational beach area, and residential area. The 22 rides and attractions for the theme park are designed by John Stevenson, the director of the animation movie Kung Fu Panda. The whole project is scheduled to be completed sometime in 2010[4].
