KARACHI: The Karachi Metropolitan Corporation (KMC) has added another recreational activity at Safari Park where Mayor Barrister Murtaza Wahab Siddiqi on Friday opened jumbo jump, an inflatable adventure park, that would offer fun activities at subsidised rates.

Addressing the opening ceremony, Mayor Wahab said that the KMC aimed at opening more public spaces and had decided to recover all its lands which were encroached upon in the past and convert them into recreational spots.

“You have already witnessed that within last one week we have added value to Karachi Zoo and Safari Park,” he said.

“In DHA, people pay Rs2,500 per person for this jumbo jump but here at Safari Park, you would get the same entertainment, thrill and adventure at Rs700 each. So our objective is to provide healthy and economical entertainment to the people of Karachi,” he added.
