Avoid Detours: One-Day Travel Guide for Qingyuan Chimelong

🍂 Take advantage of autumn to schedule a trip to Qingyuan Chimelong. Since it coincides with the autumn outings of primary and secondary school students, I was initially worried it might affect playtime. The operating hours have also been delayed to 10:00 (staying at the Giraffe Hotel allows early park entry). After the actual experience, it really didn’t affect much. The park’s attractions have separate queues for students and tourists, and the tourist lines are actually faster. Most students gather and leave by 16:00. 🚂 The steam train operation time has been adjusted to 11:00, so we didn’t follow the recommended route. Before entering, pick up a paper map at the service center. If you get a check-in passport at the entrance, the suggested route is: 10:00 Park entry welcome ceremony → Aardvark → Parrot Rainforest → Ape Forest Monkey Island 11:00 African Animal Migration (about 10 minutes) → Giraffe Prairie → Giraffe Restaurant 12:30 Steam Train (about 35 minutes) → Lion King Mountain → Lion King Ferris Wheel → Follow the Sky Exploration Route 14:30 Twins Theater (Twins Show) → Wild Elephant Valley → Kangaroo Jungle (feed the baby kangaroos) 15:30 Little Bug World 16:00 Bear Valley Theater → Bear Valley → Little Bug World 17:00 Grand Carnival Parade → Follow the parade to exit ⚠️ Tips for visiting: 1️⃣ No outside food allowed in the park (except a reasonable amount of water and baby food); bags will be checked. 2️⃣ Strong sunlight—bring an umbrella to avoid sunburn and tanning. 3️⃣ If bringing children, a stroller is recommended; if not, rent a baby stroller. 4️⃣ If possible, rent an electric vehicle to get around (rental is expensive). The park is actually quite small, and many areas are undeveloped (not necessary). 5️⃣ You can buy meal vouchers or memberships for dining inside the park. 6️⃣ It’s recommended to feed the baby kangaroos in the "Kangaroo Jungle" (try to avoid the larger kangaroos); they are gentler and cuter, and the area has less odor. 7️⃣ Add "Chimelong Tourism" before entering to stay updated on showtimes and operating hour changes on the day of your visit. 8️⃣ It’s best to visit "Little Bug World" after 15:30, as students will gradually leave, avoiding peak times.
