The explanations were a testament to their professionalism. Not only were they rich in information and logically coherent, but even more remarkable was their meticulous control of pace, their steady and steady delivery, and their emphasis on key points. This subtle and subtle approach allowed us, the visitors, to calm down and truly understand and retain the core message conveyed by the museum, which was a profound benefit.

It was fun, and the flora and fauna were rich. The legendary sky elevator wasn't as impressive as we'd imagined because it was cloudy the day we went. Still, it was fun overall. Aside from the sheer size of the place and the tiring walk, it was a 100!
The entrance fee is 50 yuan, and the shuttle bus inside costs 10 yuan for a 10-minute circuit, which isn't too expensive. The plant life is abundant, the air is fresh, and the scenery is well-designed and interesting. Each venue is unique and well-thought-out. The popular elevator lights up at 6:40 am, which is very romantic and beautiful. It's worth a visit and a good time.
