Lots of great exhibits and the animals look well cared for. I would love for more non zoo attractions and services. More food stands for instance.

The weather is very good and the whole botanical garden is quite beautiful. It is known as the Plateau City. The botanical garden is very large and you can see many different plants. It is also a very relaxing botanical garden.

This amusement park is very large and has many rides, including roller coasters, bungee jumping, carousels, and performances. However, generally speaking, the food in scenic spots is more expensive, so you can also bring some snacks with you.

It's a great water world. One day is too big to play in it, but there are some exciting ones that I don't dare to play.

Crown Hill Park is a great park. It is a good choice to get close to nature. It is not too noisy and is very suitable for a quiet walk! The overall feeling is very good, the wind is not strong, and it is suitable for sightseeing.
