Consejos útiles resumidos a partir de reseñas

Raincoats at the Entrance: Don’t buy raincoats at the entrance as they are provided for free during the “Flying over the Jurassic” attraction.

Inaccurate Queue Time Information: The posted queue times inside the park may not be accurate. If the stated wait time is, for example, 100 minutes, the actual wait time may be closer to 50 minutes. Be open to trying the rides if you really want to, as the wait times can be shorter than advertised.

Early Arrival for Fewer Crowds: If possible, arrive early in the morning as the park tends to be less crowded during these hours.

Avoiding Crowds During Jurassic Crossing: The “Jurassic Crossing” attraction can get very crowded during holidays. If you arrive at the opening, there might be a wait of one to two hours. Alternatively, consider queuing in the midday to afternoon, but be prepared for longer wait times, possibly four to five hours.

Patience During Parades: Patience is key during parades. The floats are quite large, and standing further away might offer a clearer view, especially when the area is crowded.

Cool Escape at China Dinosaur Museum: If it’s exceptionally hot, consider a visit to the China Dinosaur Museum. It houses various dinosaur specimens and is mainly cooler inside.

Check Weather Forecast: Check the weather forecast in advance. In case of rain, many attractions might temporarily close for maintenance, leading to delays.

Bring Food and Water: If you’re on a budget, consider bringing your own food and water, as the park’s bottled water can be relatively expensive at 10 yuan each.
