I was mentally prepared before going, but I was still surprised when I got there before 9:00 AM (if it's sunny, definitely bring an umbrella; you'll know whether it's useful or not after lining up!)
Comments:
The hotel entrance opens at 9:30 AM, but around 9:50 PM, three entrances become individual entrances. Many latecomers rush in and get in before those who've been lining up since 8:00 AM. It's a bit...
If you don't want to get up early and line up, you can get to the hotel entrance at 9:50 PM. You might even get in straight away, beating out the individual tourists!
Reservations are required for the Chief's House, and there are two time slots: 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM and 11:00 AM to 12:00 AM. Save my picture of 👇 and scan the QR code and fill out your information in advance while you're in line. Once you pass the blue gate, open Alipay and scan the QR code to book an appointment instantly. We arranged to queue from 11 AM to 12 PM, but arrived at the queue at 10:20 AM. The staff told us to wait in line for the next time slot, 10:50 AM. Don't listen to them, don't leave, you'll regret it if you do! 😂
From the time we lined up to the time we got on the bus, it took 1 hour and 20 minutes. The ride inside took about 10-15 minutes. We even saw a black bear circling.
Complaints🤢:
The difference in quality between people really shines through in the queues. Some people just want to stay in the shade. They're so selfish. Alas, how many people can truly think of others?
After we got out, we lined up for the grassland amphibious vehicle, but were told the line would be at least an hour. We gave up and decided to take the walking tour instead. It was quite good, and we got to see all the herbivores.
The sea lion show was fun. We lined up half an hour early and it lasted 15 or 16 minutes. By then, it was already lunchtime, so we went to the Harbor Restaurant for dinner. We had beef noodles and pork chop rice, which were quite good. Afterward, we just strolled around Broadway, watching the water splashing, the rapids, and the soaring eagle. It was fun!
The afternoon show at 4:30 was scheduled for Broadway. We lined up there just before 4:00. It wasn't crowded, so we got a good seat and even enjoyed some popsicles! 👍 The warm-up video projection was quite interesting. The Broadway animal show lasted 15 or 16 minutes.
From then until 7:00, we just strolled around the right side of the map.
In the end, we didn't go to the 4D cinema. We waited in line for an hour and a half, so we gave up.
From entering the park at 10:00 AM to 7:30 PM, we visited almost every attraction without riding any of the rides. In the end, we all decided not to wait for the 8:30 PM parade or the 9:30 PM fireworks show. We had a great time.
I've seen a lot of people complaining about having to buy an Optimized Pass to avoid the lines. You have to pay for everything. I think the Premium Pass is normal. If you want to queue when it's crowded, you can queue. If you don't want to queue, you can pay for a Premium Pass. It's up to each person to decide what kind of service they want based on their price.
Water is 3 yuan, and Fenkobi is 5 yuan, which isn't outrageous.
The price of meals could be lowered a bit.
