Conveniently located by subway, and there's a chicken soup dumpling shop right outside.
Take the sightseeing bus to the top and slowly stroll down.
Seeed Dodo, elephants, tigers…
The park has a rich variety of animals, the visiting order is well-organized, and signs are everywhere.
The animals are very well cared for, and there's a wide selection of cultural and creative products.
Even a casual snapshot looks great.
It was great! I even saw a bear swimming! Quite interesting! It was just a bit crowded! And in the summer, the animals are all so lazy and it's too hot! They probably don't want to move! People would be dying of heat, hahaha! It's quite suitable for children! Suitable for kindergarten and preschool! It's a bit too advanced for third grade and above! Kids won't be as interested as they were when they were younger!

We took the kids there over the weekend, and it was a lot of fun. Although the hotel is a bit old, it was still very clean. Our housekeeper, Ms. Wang Ying, contacted us in advance to decorate the room and prepare fruit and snacks. The kids were hungry in the evening, so each of them had a milk and biscuits – so thoughtful! Breakfast was very crowded… While the selection wasn't huge, the quality was decent; the noodles and donuts were delicious. I highly recommend this hotel; it's excellent.
I went on Friday, and it was packed with people. There were queues for almost every attraction. The facilities are outdated, but the dinosaur museum was quite nice and worth a visit. The dinosaur research center was closed for upgrades.

1. Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum Scenic Area offers popular photo spots, a deer park, and a lake, making it a relaxing destination.
2. Meiling Palace is recommended to be visited when there are fewer crowds. Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is a must-see, as you must climb to the top.
3. Don't buy unofficial pigeon feed at Yinjietai. They overcharge and may harm the pigeons. The official price is 1 yuan per bag.
4. Linggu Pagoda is a must-see; the scenery is beautiful.
5. I recommend the official 30 yuan unlimited sightseeing bus. It's very tiring on your legs (around 30,000 steps), but the bus is well-organized, arrives quickly, and the queue isn't long.
By mid-November, the maple leaves along the Stone Statue Road had turned red, and the ginkgo trees had already turned yellow. The only downside was that the sycamore trees hadn't turned yellow yet, but that didn't detract from the beauty of the scenic area. It was quite nice and offered good value for money.

I went there around 3:00 PM on National Day. I didn't check the schedule and just wandered around the park, catching whatever I could. I saw a performance called "Defending the Last Chicken of Langya" and a juggler. That evening, I went to see the National Show Langya, which was truly wonderful. I went straight to the Water Show. The line was incredibly long, and once inside, only seats were left at the side, but that was fine; I could see everything. I only saw the first act of Langya. I watched acts two, three, and four from the periphery. It rained intermittently, and I left the park at 9:30 AM, missing the final fireworks display.
Visiting at night is recommended! Linyi's Langya Ancient Town is a captivating cultural and tourist attraction. Its fully immersive concept recreates the splendor of Langya. Its seven themed areas, each with its own distinct character, feature exquisitely restored Ming and Qing dynasty buildings, including government offices and academies, creating a sense of time travel. The scenic area offers a wealth of cultural experiences, including intangible cultural heritage crafts and calligraphy workshops, allowing visitors to experience the heart of history. The entertainment industry is a highlight, with over 100 performances, such as "National Show Langya," performed daily, combining audiovisual effects with stunning real-life scenes. Furthermore, the scenic area offers affordable prices, and the snack alleys are filled with the lively atmosphere of life. However, during peak season, tickets for popular performances are hard to come by, and some areas can feel overly commercial.

I bought the buffet and tickets at the Boromitra Hotel and was impressed by the hotel's warm service. The food was fresh and delicious, and the exotic dishes were a refreshing change. I was especially impressed by Ms. Yu Yanmei's enthusiastic service; she carefully explained the food, offered charging services, and informed me about the show times and arrangements. Excellent service!
Traveling with family was fun no matter where we went.
The town's food street was interspersed with antique-style buildings.
There were many doll-shaped decorations along the roadside, and the cleaners were very diligent in cleaning.
The shops sold a wide variety of items, including fans, incense, and copper crafts. The evening performances were quite entertaining. I suggest reducing the green light on the lakeside lights – be careful at night.
Otherwise, it was good.

It's the perfect park for young girls!!! You don't have to queue for almost anything, and even if you do, it never takes more than five minutes. My daughter loves the carousel. My family of three and my aunt rode it six times! We were all dizzy after coming out... We also rode the boat six times, and the Ferris wheel, cars, bikes, and more. My kids also loved the parades and taking photos with celebrities. I really think it's very cost-effective. It would be more cost-effective to buy an annual pass. The only thing I'm not happy with is that many restaurants in the park are closed during the off-season, and the food options are limited and not very tasty.
My daughter loves Sanrio, and my mom loves KT. It's a great place to take photos and check in. There's also a Ferris wheel that feels like a swing in the air. The various performances are all great.

The earliest museum in China
Saved by 898 users1892 positive reviews

The Nanjing Museum effectively functions as the Jiangsu Provincial Museum. It is one of the earliest museums established in China, comprising a history hall, an art hall, a special exhibition hall, a digital hall, a Republican era hall, and an intangible cultural heritage hall. Admission is free and by reservation only; audio guides are available for a fee. The exhibition showcasing the Republican era is quite unique and unlike any other provincial museum I've seen.
If you're visiting Nanjing, you absolutely must check out the Nanjing Museum. It's a huge place with tons of exhibits and a fantastic experience. The museum is structured as one building with six galleries: a history gallery, a special exhibition gallery, a digital gallery, an art gallery, an intangible cultural heritage gallery, and a Republican-era gallery. Even a cursory glance could take a whole day to explore. The audio guides are very user-friendly, with several types available for adults, students, and children, catering to different age groups. The replica Republican-era street below is quite immersive. There are also many souvenirs available; I bought these building block fridge magnets, which are quite suitable for kids and also have a nice souvenir value.

The Chinese-style horror is indeed amazing, but it's more suitable for older children. It's not very friendly to children under 120cm, as there are many height restrictions, which is a bit of a shame. The park is very large, and there are many very friendly NPCs. I'll definitely come back when my child is older.
This amusement park is excellent. Its location is quite convenient, with a Journey to the West-themed area at the back. Overall, it offers great value for money and is suitable for adults and children to enjoy together. The attractions are relatively concentrated, so the experience won't be too tiring.

The venue is indeed not very large, and it doesn't take too long to walk around, but the cultural relics are quite impressive, with countless artifacts from the Warring States and Han Dynasties. Make a reservation in advance, and it's a must-see attraction.
Teacher Zhang's explanation was incredibly detailed and informative. He was very dedicated and enthusiastic, demonstrating a deep understanding and pride in the culture of our hometown. Thank you for your explanation, Teacher! I'll definitely come back to Xuzhou again! 👍

Generally speaking, it's ok. The commercialization is a bit serious, but the prices are still quite touching. The tickets are a bit expensive. After entering, many projects have to be charged again. The cost performance is not high.
It's definitely worth a visit. The night view is stunning, with a more canal-like atmosphere than the southern water towns. There are free performances throughout the day, though they're held in different areas. It's quite large, and even during the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was packed with visitors. The ticket grants unlimited entry for two days, but I recommend staying a few days for greater convenience. The parking lot could use a concrete paving; the tens of millions in daily revenue would be enough to repair it. However, we parked in front of the restaurant near the small city gate, and we paid the same parking fee. It's also very safe and easy to get in and out with luggage. Food is affordable, but hotel accommodations are.
