I went there few days ago and found a lot more fun. I accompanied by a chinese mate, she guilded me through the trip. The zoo is pretty much bigger than I imagined. I met few people there and shared our experience being at Zoo in different cities. I like this place! I would recommend.🕰️Business Hours:9am to 5pm💰Average Price per Person:30 Rmb

If you're looking for the best value zoo, look no further than Jinan Zoo. At just 25 yuan per person, it's a steal! Not only does it have a full range of animals, including giant pandas, flamingos, lions, and tigers, but it also boasts lush greenery and a beautiful environment. You can easily spend a whole day here with your kids without feeling any pressure. It's guaranteed to be a fun-filled day for them! This weekend, take a day trip to the zoo. Even though it's been a while since I've been there, I still feel a sense of familiarity as soon as I walk through the gate. After all, I used to come here often when I was the same age as my daughter. (Good news: Seniors over 60 and children under 1.4 cm are free!) Parking is limited nearby, so it's recommended to take a taxi. Walking along the tree-lined avenue, my mood is as bright as the weather today. The large iron ox at the entrance stands proudly in the sunshine, looking like it rules the world. When I was a child, this place was called "Golden Bull Zoo". It is said that the park was named after the "Golden Bull Mountain" where it was built in 1926. The park is quite large. If you want to spend a day here, it's recommended to take the sightseeing bus. It stops on demand, so you can get off at any station to see the animals and then wait for the bus at the same spot. If you prefer to walk, you can choose to walk a large or small circle. The large circle starts at the entrance and goes directly to the "White Bird Paradise" on the right-hand side. This way, you can see most of the animals, but it will be tiring. If you want to take it easy, it's recommended to enter from the "Monkey Mountain" in the middle. This way, you can see the main animals without getting too tired. Walk and stop as you please, and enjoy the leisurely atmosphere. Today, we brought our second child, so we chose to walk the small circle. Our first stop was the "Monkey Mountain", which we always visit. I love this open-air area because the monkeys live in a more "natural" environment. They can run and jump freely, and even swing on a swing or climb a fake mountain. Monkeys that are friends can groom each other, and you can even see a mother monkey feeding her baby. In comparison, the animals that are kept in cages seem lazy and listless, which feels a bit inhumane. Perhaps because it was the first time she saw a monkey, our second child's expression was incredibly rich, as if she had discovered a new world. She would open her mouth in surprise and shout "ah ah", as if she wanted to attract the monkey's attention. Unfortunately, the monkeys here are all seasoned veterans and don't seem to care. Next up is the home of the black bear and brown bear. Their enclosure is quite large. We looked around for a long time before finally finding them in a crowd. The laziest animal must be the black bear. Today, I saw it with my own eyes. Someone threw a large apple down, and it landed right at its feet. However, the black bear, which was sitting down, was too lazy to stand up and pick it up. It tilted its head and stretched its neck, but still couldn't reach it, so it gave up. Anyway, there will be more pies falling from the sky, so it just needs to keep its mouth open. My daughter asked to see the giraffe. We went inside and found that they weren't there. I slapped my forehead. Today's weather is good, so the giraffes must be in the backyard sunbathing. We went around to the back and, sure enough, we saw a large and a small giraffe eating leaves leisurely. I always feel that giraffes are elegant and graceful animals. Their large eyes are gentle, their faces are small and delicate, and their bodies are elegant, like a noble lady. Behind the giraffe pavilion is the predator zone. A large tiger paces back and forth inside the glass enclosure. Perhaps due to its long captivity, it has lost its freedom and wildness. Its gentle face looks like a big cat, making it hard to associate it with the majestic king of beasts. Instead, it looks more like the tiger plush toys sold at the entrance. The vast expanse of land to the west belongs to the herbivores. Camels, sika deer, cows, and sheep live here in a free-ranging, peaceful group. Over there, a camel is rolling on the ground, kicking up dust everywhere. Look, a group of newborn sika deer are eating grass. Their butts are facing us, and we waited for a long time but still didn't see their cute faces. On the way back, we passed by the panda pavilion that my daughter has been looking forward to. We saw a cute giant panda sleeping soundly, hugging a large pillar. Its adorable, lazy, and silly look makes you want to hug it. The other giant panda is hiding quietly by the wall, as if playing hide-and-seek with us. Or maybe it's just trying to find some peace and quiet, as there are always so many people coming to see it. Even so, my daughter's sharp eyes spotted it. To avoid disturbing it, we took a quick photo and then left quietly. At this point, my daughter, who had been playing all morning, started to cry for lunch. So, we made the nearby flamingos our last stop for the day. A group of charming flamingos stood close to us, like a pink cloud. Their legs are long and straight. On closer inspection, a few of them are actually kneeling, as if they walked out of a painting. Lunch was at Oriental Gourmet near the zoo entrance. There's a buffet of steak, pizza, fries, and fruit salad. A full table, with all the colors, flavors, and aromas you could ask for. After lunch, you can take a stroll around Sun City (children's clothing wholesale market) to see the affordable toys and children's products. There's also a huge children's playground. If you have time, you can let your child continue to burn off some energy there. Remember to bargain when you buy things! My daughter liked the colorful little turtles. Three large ones were bought for ten yuan, and three small ones were given as a gift. It's a great deal!

Step into Jinan Zoo and you'll feel like you've entered a living encyclopedia of nature. From the adorable pandas to the elegant giraffes, from the lively monkeys to the calm and collected lions, each species has its own space. The carefully designed habitats simulate the animals' natural homes, ensuring their quality of life and allowing visitors to observe and learn in a safe and comfortable environment, stimulating curiosity and respect for nature.

Taking kids to see pandas, Beijing Zoo and Chengdu Panda Base are too crowded and exhausting! After seeing the spring blooms and fragrant fruits in Hangzhou, passing through Jinan, I heard there are pandas here too - Yaji and Huao just moved to their new home, so I couldn't wait to visit~ Jinan Zoo Admission: 25 yuan per person, free for children under 1.4 meters, seniors over 60, active military personnel, etc. Visiting time: Half a day to a full day, adjust according to your child's stamina. We played for half a day, mainly to see the pandas Tips: There are simple meals available inside, and on good weather days, you can also bring some food for a picnic as the place is quite spacious. If you have a young child, consider bringing a stroller. When we visited, Yaji and Huao had already moved to their new home. To see the pandas in a more active state, try to go early in the morning. The keepers feed them at different spots, and you can watch the pandas eat and roll around on the grass live. It's harder to predict their routine if you go late or in the afternoon. Although Yaji and Huao are in two separate areas, they are very close to each other, and there's no glass in the outdoor activity area (feeding is not allowed), so you can see them very clearly and feel like you could reach out and pet them. On weekdays, it's not crowded and there's no time limit on watching the pandas! No need to make a reservation or buy a separate panda ticket. Although they're not the top celebrities of the cat world, they're just as adorable. The easy and close 'contact' makes it a cost-effective choice for a family outing!

The indoor and outdoor spaces are much larger than before. Both are outside, Hua Ao and Ya Ji, one still and one active haha, Ya Ji is a bit bigger and more lively. Always on the move, running around. Hua Ao is a bit smaller, always sleeping, contributing a triangular rice ball silhouette, super cute. At 10:30, the keeper will feed them snacks and bamboo, and the two panda treasures will be more active, both starting to eat heartily~ Egret Pavilion, Songbird Pavilion, Wading Bird Lake: There are many birds, the birds in the Egret Pavilion are all in the trees, and they will fly over your head! A great experience~ There are many peacocks in the Songbird Pavilion, the white peacocks are so beautiful. There are beautiful black swans in the lake, and some big geese are not afraid of people, they come straight over for food. Monkeys: Didn't expect Jinan Zoo to have so many types of monkeys, all quite lively.

Wolves, Foxes, Leopards, Civets: These are all next to each other, there are so many wolves, running around very lively.

The Jinan Zoo is a childhood memory. Since I had some time, I decided to visit with my mom. Not much has changed since the past. - The flamingos are located right at the entrance. They are truly stunning at first glance! The panda exhibit attracts a lot of visitors, and the panda cubs are incredibly cute. There are many peacocks in the zoo, and I especially love the blue ones. There are also quite a few peacocks that are displaying their feathers. There are several areas where you can interact with the animals, like alpacas, sheep, and small fish, among others. Giraffes, hippos, rhinos, and turkeys are also quite interesting. It's a good choice to bring the kids here on a day off.

Children’s favorite|||Jinan Zoo! A zoo that completely conquered me. ☝I have been to many zoos with giant pandas, but I think Jinan Zoo is really the most worthwhile place to visit. First of all, the tickets are very cheap, 24 yuan for adults and 12 yuan for children and students at half price. It is said that cheap things are not good, but this idea is the biggest mistake. The tickets are very cheap but will not disappoint you. Instead, they will make you feel that they are worth the money. Saving money is worth it! We saw all the animals along the route, feeling tired but happy. 🖖There are many other interesting animals in Jinan Zoo. I highly recommend the orangutans in the orangutan house🦍. They are really excited and dance directly with tourists. Our tourists had so much fun playing with the gorillas today that the gorillas hammered the glass directly, which gave me an inexplicable sense of great impact. 🖐There are also giraffes🦒, elephants🐘, yaks🐃, ring-tailed lemurs, camels, crocodiles, leopards and other animals that are very photogenic. ✌My children’s favorite flamingos and pandas were also seen, and they jumped for joy! And took a group photo The panda house is outdoors, and it’s really close to the giant pandas! ! ! ! ! The panda 🐼 was completely horizontal with us, and the straight-line distance was less than 10 meters, and it felt like we could touch it directly. Yaji, born in 2014, is the world's first giant panda in 2014. He is very active and lively. He doesn't even take a nap. He just circles the whole place, stealing all the limelight from his big brother Huaao. In 2007, Huaao was a very calm panda 🐼. He took a nap at noon and took a walk in the afternoon, but very slowly. 👌This time I saw pandas, which was the best experience I had in three zoos. Better than Beijing Zoo. Because there are few people, the pandas 🐼 are very active. A very treasured zoo. You can see all the animals you want to see, and they can all be photographed. Once again, I give high praise to the Panda House in Jinan Zoo. I walked around for five hours today, and spent three hours looking at pandas! It’s really a huge and awesome zoo kingdom. If you have kids who love animals, come and visit. It’s tiring but fun, yeah! Will come again later
