The best part is that you can feed them, and some of the animals are super cute!🐾 Dining: There are three restaurants in the park to choose from: the Beast Restaurant, the Giraffe Restaurant, and the Post Station Restaurant. The restaurants have great views, so you can enjoy your meal while watching the animals. Prices are around CNY 40–50, and there are a variety of options, including rice, noodles, and burgers.

The wonderful performances are amazing, and the atmosphere is lively, with the audience constantly exclaiming "wow." ❤ Mermaid Show: The mermen🧜‍♂ with eight-pack abs and the elegant and charming mermaids🧜‍♀ are mesmerizing for children, and the show is very popular.

Outside food is not allowed to be fed to the animals. 4⃣ There are many great places to take photos here, and you can take great photos anywhere! There is also a beautiful autumn chrysanthemum🌼 sea in the ecological park, which is beautifully arranged and perfect for photos. The best part is that you don't need to buy a ticket!
