The elk circle is very large, and it is recommended to buy sightseeing bus tickets directly at the ticket office. The wild elk are very smart and friendly. When they see the car stop, they will come from a distance. You can bring your own carrots and cut them into slices to feed them, which is very interesting!
Tickets are 45 yuan, and the tour bus is 15 yuan. It is recommended to bring your own carrots. The children are very happy to feed them. There is a small bag for ten yuan. It is cool to go early. If it is too hot, the elk will soak in the water and can't come out.

Let's enjoy the forest, where you can bring the elderly and children to breathe in the fresh air.
The scenic area could use some additional children's play equipment. Playing in the forest might be more enjoyable than just walking around. I wish the scenic area continued success.
When you look up, it's like Mount Huashan is splashing with beauty amidst the mist and rain.
A beautiful scenic spot, just as described online. A great scenic spot, just as described online. A great place to visit again. Excellent value for money, and highly praised.

Suitable for children to play. You can experience 4D projects, small roller coasters, live performances and other projects. There may be more people on holidays, so book tickets in advance and arrange your itinerary. Worth recommending!
It is very convenient to book tickets on Ctrip. Everything went smoothly. I went straight into the park after getting the ticket. Very good, very good, a very good experience. I will continue to book tickets on Ctrip next time. It is very convenient to book tickets on Ctrip. Everything went smoothly. I went straight into the park after getting the ticket.

I originally thought that there was nothing fun about this kind of place, it was all artificial classics, but when I actually went there, I found it was quite interesting. Flying drones to take the elderly for a walk, eat and drink, and there was no entrance fee. It was really good.
First of all, the scenery along the way to Dazong Lake is very beautiful. Arrive in Yancheng, navigate to Qingnian West Road, go to Qinnan Town, and the entrance of the Mangshe River Scenic Belt. It is a free scenic spot. Go south along the river. There are many children's play areas, tent leisure areas, barbecue areas, and some special attractions, such as ancient brick kilns. Play along to Dazong Lake. Dazong Lake is a 5A-level scenic spot. Tickets are required, but there is no shuttle bus here. There is an additional charge. The Dazong Lake Scenic Area is divided into the old scenic area and the new scenic area. The old scenic area is a natural scenery with a large lake view. You can take a cruise and play in the Bagua reed marsh. Take a speedboat and you can see a large group of geese flying behind the speedboat, which is particularly spectacular! The old scenic area also has performances of the Anti-Japanese War and drinks local soy milk. The new scenic area is the ancient city of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It is a cultural attraction. It is mainly built in imitation of the buildings of the Song Dynasty. There are Jian'an Street, Song Street, etc. There are many local special snacks here. Dahu is a water town with more river seafood. It is cheap to eat fish here. The lights at this scenic spot are very beautiful at night. From May 1st to 4th, there will be singers singing and fireworks after 8 pm. If you stay overnight at Dazong Lake, you can go back to the other side of the Mangshe River. The river view on the other side is also very beautiful.

It was raining when we went, so it was a shame we didn't get to experience any of the interactive activities. However, it wasn't crowded, so I was able to get a close-up look at Zhensheng and Yun'er. The keepers were very enthusiastic about sharing interesting stories about the pandas, and the ladies at the visitor center were also very helpful, offering free gifts with any purchase. I'll definitely be back next time I have the chance.
It is difficult to comment on the animal areas other than the giant pandas. The noisy recreation area is very close to the giant panda area. But I went to see Zhensheng Yuner, so other things are not important. The nannies and staff worked very hard to maintain order and kept calling for civilized cat viewing, no noise, no litter, no feeding, no spitting in the yard. They kept saying it over and over again until their voices were hoarse. They worked very hard and were very responsible, but there were still people spitting in the yard. It was really hateful!
