Dongguan Family Day Trip | Lunar New Year Zoo and Amusement Park Trip

🔆It's holiday time... Just an hour's drive from Shenzhen, we found a great place for a family day out - Dongguan Xiangshi Zoo 🦓🐿️🐘 During our visit, we saw adorable pandas 🐼, fed giraffes 🦒 and baby monkeys 🐒, went on rides 🎠, and watched a theater performance. We had a great day and made lots of memories ✅‼️ 🧨To celebrate the New Year, the zoo will hold a 🐍 Year of the Snake Cultural Festival (Jan 29–Feb 4, 2025), with events including a tiger meet and greet, peony exhibition, and circus performances. It's worth a visit! If you don't know where to go for the New Year, why not take the kids to the zoo? 🔸【Things to Do】 ▪️Panda House🐼: Pandas are fed at 13:30, so they're more active at this time. You can watch them play outside. ▪️Feed the Animals🦒: You can feed most of the animals, but the elephants, giraffes, and monkeys are a must! ▪️Amusement Park🎠: Choose 7 out of 9 rides, including the Forest Train, Pirate Ship, Carousel, Pegasus Jump, Flying Chair, Meteor Hammer, and Space Police. Enjoy a thrilling ride with the kids! ▪️Theater Performances🎪: Check the performance times before you go so you don't miss out! Watch acrobatics 🤹🏻‍♀️ at the Comprehensive Performance Hall, sea lion shows 🦭 at the Aquarium, pig diving 🐖 at Happy Mobilization, and falcons at Crocodile Island. 🔸【Basic Information】 🌳Name: Dongguan Xiangshi Zoo 🚗Driving: Navigate to "Dongguan Xiangshi Zoo - Parking Lot 1" or "Dongguan Xiangshi Zoo - Parking Lot 2" 🈺️Opening Hours: Apr 1–Oct 31: 8:30–17:00 Nov 1–Mar 31: 9:00–17:00 🔸【Tips】 ✔️Things to Do: ❶Pick up a map at the entrance and follow it to explore the zoo. ❷To make your visit easier, you can rent an electric car (large: CNY 100/hr, small: CNY 80/hr) or take a sightseeing bus (CNY 20/adult, CNY 10/child). ❸You can't bring your own food to feed the animals.
