Penguin House: Super cute waddling penguins, watch keeper feedings (11:00/15:00); Fun fact: Emperor penguins and Adelie penguins "live together" here! Beluga Theater/Sea Lion Theater: Beluga underwater ballet + sea lion comedy interactions, recommend seeing both (3-4 alternating shows daily); Tip: Sit in middle rows near the aisle for better chances of being selected for audience interaction. 🌼Float Parade (2 shows daily) Super Mammoth Grand Parade (13:15): 13-meter mechanical mammoth available for rides (requires queuing); Ocean Night Light Parade (19:45): LED floats + light effects, amazing atmosphere; Position tip: Hengqin Seaside main road, avoid crowds for unobstructed photos. 🎢Rides (ranked by thrill level) Parrot Roller Coaster (must for adults): Asia's longest track, 360° flips + extreme dives; Iceberg Roller Coaster (family-friendly): Indoor blue track, simulates polar adventure; Super Rapids (you'll get wet): Water roller coaster, rain ponchos available (15 yuan/piece); Rainforest Tower (recommended for younger kids): Slow ascent/descent overlooking the park, good for photos. 🏨Hotel Recommendations + Money-Saving Tips Hengqin Bay Hotel: Advantage: Adjacent to Ocean Kingdom, has pool and water park, great for water activities; Package: Includes breakfast + dinner + park tickets, unlimited park entry for 2 days. Penguin Hotel: Feature: Themed rooms (penguin/polar bear), close-up penguin viewing; Suitable for: Families with children, hotel offers DIY workshops and educational classes. Money-saving Tips: Book "Stay 1 night get 1 night free" package (includes two-person tickets + dining vouchers); Non-holiday travel, rooms start at 600+ yuan/night (doubles on weekends). 🍽Dining Guide (Avoiding Pitfalls) Must-try: Underwater Restaurant (200+ yuan/person): Huge screen for fish viewing + steak and seafood; Penguin Food Court: Penguin-themed snacks (recommend crab roe dumplings + iced lemon tea); Hengqin Port: Exit park to eat at "Claypot King" Cantonese dim sum (40 yuan/person). Avoid: Park fast food (self-heating boxed meals starting at 35 yuan, poor value); Penguin Hotel dinner (buffet 400+ yuan for adults, recommend breakfast only). ⚠Tips & Traps to Avoid Transportation: Taxi from Zhuhai Station to Ocean Kingdom costs about 30 yuan (avoid illegal taxis!); Free Chimelong shuttle available from Macau (hotel reservation required). Queuing: Enter at 9:30 opening with first batch, prioritize theater shows (reduces waiting); Express Pass: 200 yuan/person (few skip-the-line attractions, recommended during holidays only). Other tips: Wear comfortable athletic shoes (20,000+ steps daily); Bring waterproof phone case (essential for rapids/sailing rides); Download "Chimelong Tourism" APP for maps + show schedules. 🌈Suggested Route: Day 1: Enter park → Beluga Theater → Whale Shark Pavilion → Penguin House → Lunch → Parrot Roller Coaster → Super Rapids → Night Light Parade → Fireworks Show; Day 2: Early start → Iceberg Roller Coaster → 5D Cinema → Float Parade → Craft Workshop (hotel activity) → Return journey. 💡Ultimate Secret: Make full use of hotel's re-entry privilege, avoid midday crowds, park is least crowded after 8 PM!
