Destination Point

Destination Point - Non-stop fun!

Destination Point, Faridabad (Haryana) is one of the most popular sporting and fun spots around Delhi. About a couple of kilometres from the Badarpur border, the bumper-to-bumper drive through the congested highway is worth a visit…

To set your pulse racing (yourself along with!) is the popular Go Karting facility to test your real driving skills with a marshal (sans the traffic police challans) to guide you and let you have a good test drive on the serpentine track.

A major attraction is the Manhattan Magic Simulator- a virtual reality visit to New York City malls and many other simulated events. Films shown on the life size screen are well synchronised with spectacular effects inside the 3 metre long capsule imported from US to give you a virtual reality roller coaster ride, a mountain drive, car racing, desert death traps and a flight over New York city.

There are a couple of Video Games available for Rs. 10/- per token.

There are two small pool tables and a large billiards table at Rs.60/- per hour besides an interesting dynamic Hockey game on the table. For the tiny tots there are fun boats, bumpy cars and other games. Shooting Guns - an automated shooting game is popular with the children and elders alike.

Destination Point is a popular and unique establishment in itself catering to the taste of Haryana locals as well as the Delhiite crowd in pursuit of fun and a get-away from the city. It houses the Nirulas eatery and a take-away pastry shop, along with the regular snacks counter and a good pan-shop as well.

The Space Chair- a jhoola like structure is another attraction for children. For the executives passing by the area and the frequent visitors, Tropicana Bar is a popular hangout serving variety of cocktails, mocktails, and other beverages.

And in case the day has not been to costly an affair for you (looking at the variety of facilities available and probably not the price of tokens), you could shop at the factory priced Webleys, Bonjour, Osh Kosh , Benetton and many other brands in the offing, right there in the same complex.

While you drive back do give a look and maybe line up your car at the 'border' (as a Delhiite has known it for years!) for the cheapest available in or around Delhi 'Quarter' or two… Bur remember to take a teetotaller friend to drive you back home- the Police Check Post is right there…!
