The zoo was quite large, but the layout was mediocre, with some animals backtracking. The animals looked plump and well-cared for. However, a zoo is ultimately a cage for animals; the rhinoceros exhibited stereotypical behavior, constantly circling around, which was quite pitiful. Zoos with insufficient living space are even less necessary!
We took the kids to Chongqing Zoo, taking Metro Line 2 to Zoo Station. As soon as we exited the station, we were surrounded by panda-themed decorations. Green ceilings and round panda paintings made the kids incredibly happy. 🐼
The panda enclosure was right inside the park. Although the pandas were lounging lazily, seeing them in person was satisfying. The park is built on a hillside and isn't very large, but walking uphill was quite tiring. Fortunately, there were many rest areas along the way, making it feel like a leisurely stroll in a park. 🌿
We rented a stroller for 10 yuan per hour, but after four hours, we were charged 40 yuan! [laughing emoji] Note that strollers can only be returned to the main entrance. We originally wanted to exit from the other side, but ended up having to go back.
Overall, it was a very good experience. The greenery was lush, the air was fresh, and the pace was slow—perfect for bringing kids for some fresh air. ☀️

definitely worth it for its price, too much to see as well. and for photography lovers it is awesome. history, culture, the story of stone.
This is considered a must-see classic spot in Guiyang. You can easily spend half a day taking photos. It's located in the University Town area, and the 20 RMB entrance fee is quite reasonable. There are also performances during the day, including a Nuo opera, which is a good way to learn about traditional culture.

The scenic area is well-managed, the staff are friendly and helpful, the restaurant is clean and tidy with enthusiastic staff, and the food is delicious. The area offers a variety of activities, and the night view is beautiful, making it well worth a visit. Although smaller than the Miao village, the experience is much better. I recommend visiting around noon or staying overnight.
In fact, it is more of a man-made attraction, the landscape layout is generally small, and the ethnic characteristics are not very prominent. The planning method and the use of restoration are acceptable. The food is expensive and most of the dishes are pre-prepared, which is unavoidable, but also understandable and acceptable.

Definitely worth seeing. Located next to a metro station, but lots of available taxis out front.
There were so many people there during National Day holiday that the boat ride took an hour or two to line up, but the boat ride was the most spectacular. Especially the exit from the cave. The driver's skills were amazing. Inside the cave, it was crowded. There were several paths, but it became just one. In short, it's more fun when there aren't any other people around. The corn inside was 10 yuan for four. Don't buy them at the beginning. Hahahaha. We also went on the zipline, but the staff were not very friendly. They were very aggressive. It was pointless. It didn't even take a minute, and it cost 50 yuan.

Chongqing Happy Valley is quite fun, and even more kid-friendly than Shanghai's Happy Valley. The kids had a blast, and my girlfriends had a blast too. There's even a makeup area! The NPCs there are so pretty and cool!
Highly recommended! Chongqing Happy Valley! Whether it's Halloween 🎃👻 or just any other time!
Let's go!
Okay, here's my review of Chongqing Happy Valley, condensed to under 500 words:
Chongqing Happy Valley Highlights 🎢
Recommended Highlights ✨
1. Unique Mountain Coasters:

3. Rich Themed Festival Atmosphere: Events like the Halloween Haunted House 👻 and the Summer Electronic Music Party 🎶 are incredibly popular and well-themed, making them worth a special trip.
Things to Note ⚠️
· Physically challenging: The park is built on a hillside, and the entire ride involves climbing a mountain 😫. Be sure to wear comfortable sneakers! 👟
· Long queues: Popular rides often require a 1-2 hour wait on holidays. We recommend planning ahead using the official app 📱.
· Weather: Summer is hot 🥵, so be sure to wear sunscreen. Winter is cloudy and rainy 🌧️, so some rides may be closed.
Helpful Tips 🗺️
· Visit on a weekday for a less crowded experience.
· Go for the featured rides as soon as the park opens to save time in line.
· Bring your own sealed snacks and water; food and beverage prices are relatively high.

Transportation: Best to drive there and back
Tickets: 50% off on Ctrip, a great deal
The scenic area shuttle bus is 5 yuan per ride, and free during the May Day and National Day holidays!
The most important thing is that the scenic area offers a delicious Quanquan Bamboo Banquet.
It is worth going. It is a natural oxygen bar with beautiful mountains and clear waters. It is very beautiful. The bamboo banquet is very unique. The prices of the scenic spots are basically unified and the management is very standardized. It is worth taking the elderly to see it together.

The Fuling 816 Underground Nuclear Project
With an investment of 746 million yuan, the 816 Project, which began construction in 1969 and went through several phases of construction, suspension, resumption, and suspension over 18 years, is hidden in Jinzishan Mountain in Fuling, Chongqing. From the outside, it appears as an ordinary mountain forest, but inside, more than 130 tunnels crisscross the area. The largest cavern can accommodate nearly 10,000 people. The steel bars on the walls and the remaining equipment foundations silently tell the story of the passion and tragedy of the "Third Front Construction" in the last century.
A very meaningful scenic spot. Between Wulong's attractions and 816, I decisively chose this one, and it was excellent value for money. Thank you to those who struggled and sacrificed here over the years; the strength of our nation is a result of your efforts. The tour guide was young but very patriotic, telling us, his parents' generation, about Chairman Mao's great achievements. This is the educational and heritage-building significance of scenic spots like 816.

I have heard of Gaoguo River for a long time, but I have never seen its beauty. Hiking and sightseeing, the canyon scenery is very beautiful, the most unexpected is the 108-meter Guer Falls, very shocking! The whole journey is lush with vegetation and the river water is clear. I took two sightseeing buses along the way, and the total time was about
【Scenery】two and a half hours.
Very fun and worth the price. Not as exciting as expected. Complete facilities. The overall experience is very good. It would be better if there was a shuttle bus from the train station to the scenic spot. It is difficult to get a taxi and it is also troublesome to find a taxi. Overall very good

Hilight is Beluga, but the show was just bring them Yu to the show pond nothing something exciting. The mermaid show was spectacular than Beluga. Polar animal zone is nice
The Polar Ocean Park was a great experience. There were so many people, and the must-do attractions were extremely popular. It was a holiday, so there were so many people that the seats were full before the time came. We also encountered the float parade, which was great.

🌟 Overall Rating: 4.8/5
Suitable for: Culture Enthusiasts | Families | Photography Enthusiasts | Students

⏰ Hours: Tuesday-Sunday, 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM (Last admission at 4:00 PM)
🎫 Admission: Free! Free! Free! (ID card required for ticket exchange)
🚶 Suggested duration: 2-3 hours (a full day is enough for a full day)
🏆 Three must-see reasons
1️⃣ A visual feast of ethnic culture
Highlights:
✔️ Eastern Han Dynasty bronze chariot and horses (Han Dynasty craftsmanship even more exquisite than Qin Shi Huang's Terracotta Army)
✔️ Miao silver jewelry (a dazzling 20-jin "phoenix crown")
✔️ Miniature model of the Dong ethnic group's drum tower (you can see it without traveling to Southeast Guizhou)
Immersive experience:
The ethnic costume exhibition hall on the third floor is like stepping into fashion week! Try on virtual ethnic costumes and take photos (free AR equipment)
2️⃣ A Dinosaur Fan's Paradise:
A Complete Display of Guizhouosaurus Fossils (100 Million Years Older Than Jurassic Park!)
Prehistoric High-Tech:
Paleolithic "Sharp-Edged Percussion" Stone Tools (Humans Were So Smart 50,000 Years Ago)
3️⃣ A Photo Spot
The Architecture Is a Work of Art:
Inspired by the geometric structure of the Dong Drum Tower, the light and shadows are breathtaking on a sunny day
Influencer Spots:
✔️ Rainbow-Colored Ethnic Costume Wall
✔️ Suspended Bronze Chariot and Horse Installation
✔️ Giant Miao Silver Hat Sculpture
💔 Three Complaints
Located in a Remote Location: Not in the traditional city center, with few nearby restaurants (but conveniently accessible by subway).
So-so Guides: The rental electronic guides are rather dull (recommend volunteer guides).
Low-Quality Cultural and Creative Products: The souvenir shop lacks design flair (please learn from the Palace Museum's cultural and creative products!). In-Depth Experience Report
▷ Exhibition Experience:
The circulation is incredibly well-designed! Following the three main themes of "Historical Guizhou, Ethnic Guizhou, and Paleontological Guizhou," you won't get lost. Each exhibition hall has a rest area, making it family-friendly.
▷ Interactive Facilities:
The children's area features puzzles and costume graffiti.
The digital screen lets you "wear" Miao clothing and take selfies (though the response is a bit slow).
Intangible Cultural Heritage crafting workshops are available every Saturday (reservations required).
▷ Unexpected surprises:
The temporary exhibition halls on the basement floor often feature major exhibitions! The "Southwest Silk Road" exhibition, which just concluded in September, showcased numerous Burmese and Thai artifacts.
📝 Practical Tips
Best time to visit: Weekday mornings (weekends are packed with study tours).
Hidden bonus: Free luggage storage at the reception desk (so tourist-friendly!).
Eating options: The museum only offers simple meals; we recommend visiting the adjacent CCPARK shopping mall (a 5-minute walk).
Must-Bring Items: ID card and power bank (I can't stop taking photos).
The Guizhou Museum's most prominent exhibits include Miao costumes, silverware, musical instruments, and other artifacts. The sixth exhibition hall, dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, fails to highlight the 24 bends along the Yunnan-Guizhou border, a lifeline for the war against Japanese aggression. Instead, it emphasizes how the great migration of education and medical care drove the development of Guiyang, Guizhou. In short, exhibition planning requires meticulous planning.
