New Guide to Visiting the Beijing Wildlife Park

I. Transportation Guide • By Car: Park in the northernmost parking lot to minimize walking distance and start your visit with ease 🚗. • By Subway: Take Line 4 to Tiangongyuan Station and then take a taxi. This is more cost-effective than taking a taxi from the Biomedical Base Station, saving you around 10 yuan 🚇. II. Itinerary Planning • Morning: ◦ Cage Feeding in the Predator Zone (arrive before 9:00 am): Head straight to the Predator Experience Zone and buy a cup of meat for 50 yuan to feed the animals. You can see cute black bears and active tigers. Arriving early avoids queues, which can exceed 1 hour. You can also purchase a Fast Pass for 100 yuan/person. ◦ Driving Zone or Mini Train (choose one): Choose the free mini train if you have children or prefer a relaxed visit. If you want to stop and take photos freely, choose the self-driving option for 200 yuan/car, but be prepared for potential alpaca roadblocks. Bringing snacks is recommended. • Lunch: Have lunch outside the park or bring your own sandwiches and snacks to avoid the expensive and unappetizing restaurants inside the park. • Afternoon: ◦ Walking Zone: Rent an electric scooter (30 yuan/person on weekdays) or a stroller (400-900 yuan/day, suitable for seniors and young children). ◦ Popular Attractions: Visit the Red Panda House for a chance to touch their fluffy tails; interact with the adorable capybaras at the Capybara Swamp; buy leaves for 20 yuan to feed the giraffes and take stylish photos from below. III. Photography Tips Capture moments like red pandas sticking out their tongues, black bears getting close to car windows, giraffes in profile, and capybaras spacing out for great photos 📸. IV. Useful Tips • Cut apples and cucumbers into strips and hide them at the bottom of your bag. They are more popular with animals than carrots, but be aware that bags are checked at the entrance. • Rent an electric scooter upon arrival for convenience. • Pay attention to the animal show times, there is one show at 11:00 am and another at 2:00 pm 🎪.
