Nuttige tips uit recensies

Amusement Facilities: The zoo offers various amusement park-style attractions suitable for children under 6 years old, such as sand digging with toy excavators, inflatable castles, mini trains, carousels, and bumper cars. Each ride typically costs around 10 to 20 yuan.

Eetgelegenheden: There is only one forest restaurant within the park, but visitors often find the food quality to be subpar and the prices to be high. It’s advisable to bring your own snacks and meals to enjoy during your visit.

Feeding the Animals: You can purchase carrots at the entrance to feed the animals, particularly if you’re not feeding the tigers. Carrots are a practical choice as they attract a wide variety of animals. Carrots are available for purchase at the entrance for 15 yuan for 4 bags, with each bag priced at 10 yuan in the zoo (whether bought at the entrance or brought from home, do not place them in your backpack as they may be found during security checks).

Parking Considerations: On weekends, you may encounter long queues at the parking lot, resulting in delays in entering the park. To avoid this, consider parking at the California Shopping Mall parking lot directly opposite the zoo entrance. It’s about a 20-minute walk to the main gate of the park, or you can opt for the shuttle bus service, which costs 8 yuan per person.
