A Great Place for Family Fun in Huzhou — Taihu Longzhimeng Park

Perfect for family trips! This hidden gem by Taihu Lake in Changxing is tailor-made for families with kids. Just got back from a visit with my little one and here’s a detailed babysitter-level guide to share 🌈 🎡 Must-try Attractions: 1️⃣ Longzhimeng Animal World: A super large wildlife park in East China with over 300 species! It’s best to arrive right at 9 AM when it opens to get up close and feed the giraffes—kids get super excited. Don’t miss the white tiger diving show at 2 PM~ 2️⃣ Taihu Ancient Town: Recommended to visit around 4 PM. The town looks ordinary during the day, but the night view is stunning! Starting at 7 PM every night, there’s a water fireworks show and a magnificent light show, plus lots of snack stalls. 3️⃣ Water World (summer only): Huge wave pool and kids’ splash area. Remember to bring a waterproof phone pouch in advance. 4️⃣ International Grand Circus: Tickets are sold separately but totally worth it! The Russian aerialists will have you sweating palms. Try to grab seats in the middle area 30 minutes early. 🍲 Food Highlights: • Changxing farmhouse restaurant inside the park • Zhoushengji wontons in the ancient town (shrimp wontons are super fresh) • Dessert section at the Diamond Hotel buffet lunch is amazing 🚗 Travel Tips: 1.5 hours by car from Hangzhou, 2 hours from Shanghai; 15-minute taxi ride from Changxing High-Speed Rail Station
