In Guangdong! Not Africa! I've always wanted to go on safari in Africa with my family and friends!! I thought it was a distant dream...but I didn't expect to be able to experience it so close to home~ I easily fulfilled my African dream in Qingyuan! And not only could I see the animals, I could get up close and personal with them~ I even had a relaxing lunch with them! It was so relaxing~ 📍 Chimelong Resort Qingyuan, Guangdong 🚄 Take the high-speed train to Qingyuan Station, then take a taxi. 🦒 Itinerary: Millennium Sacred Tree — Steam Train — Giraffe Savannah — Lunch at Giraffe Restaurant — Zebra Cloud Trail — Lion King Ferris Wheel — Insect World — Twin Treasures Theater — Bear Valley and Three Bears Show — Monkey Mountain — Elephant Valley — Parrot Rainforest — Forest Kingdom Carnival Parade 📷 Tips: 1⃣ Steam Train: This little train takes you through the African savannah. I recommend sitting on the left side towards the back of the train for better animal viewing and photo opportunities, including shots with the train as it rounds bends. I looked everywhere for the Qingyuan chicken mentioned online, but couldn't find it. Maybe it ended up as a delicious dish in the restaurant, lol. 2⃣ The Great Migration of Africa: Daily from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, every hour, on the dot. Go to the animal entrance of the Zebra Cloud Trail to capture stunning live photos of zebras and wildebeests galloping. It's amazing! 3⃣ Giraffe Restaurant and Lion King Restaurant: Take photos and dine with giraffes and lions up close! Immerse yourself in the ambiance of an African safari resort! 4⃣ Animal Feeding: You can feed and take photos with giraffes, ring-tailed lemurs, sun conures, and more. They're very friendly and adorable! 5⃣ Giraffe Savannah: This is a must-visit photo spot!! Get up close and personal with giraffes, and capture the iconic Lion King Ferris wheel of Chimelong Qingyuan in the background. Photos with people, giraffes, and the Ferris wheel are always stunning!! 🌟 Accommodation I stayed at the Giraffe Castle Hotel. The hotel is full of adorable giraffe designs, and you can see giraffes and zebras on the savannah from the hotel corridor. It's incredibly relaxing to sit here and enjoy the animals and scenery. The hotel package also includes a buffet dinner with Chinese, Western, and Japanese cuisine, all of which were delicious. 🌟 More tips: 🚂 Take the little train first thing in the morning. There's almost no wait, fewer people, and better photo opportunities! 🦓 I recommend a two-day visit. The hotel and park ticket package is a great deal, offering early and unlimited park access with fewer crowds. 🎊 Don't miss the Forest Kingdom Carnival Parade. The atmosphere is fantastic! Kaka and Qiqi are so cute and enthusiastic. Who else will treat me like a kid after I leave Chimelong?!

Just kidding! I'm pretending to be far away, but I'm actually close to home.🤫! I didn't really go to Africa, I'm at the Chimelong Safari Park in Qingyuan. Zebras and wildebeests are running wild on the savanna. As a hard-working person, I can't help but think of myself rushing to catch the morning commute.🚗 Shake it off! I'm just watching the Great Migration!! Parrots and peacocks are showing off their vibrant, saturated colors, strutting around like they're at a rave. They're so beautiful!🥰!! Giraffes and hippos are definitely in the "chow down bros" group.🍚! The white rhinoceros and the golden takin are two "gentle giants," looking so docile they seem easy to bully! Just like me in front of my boss.👤. And the monkeys next door, each one is more clever than the last. I wish! In my next life, let me be a clever monkey, okay? PS:☀️☀️Qingyuan at 30°C feels even hotter than Africa. I'm sweating so much I think I'm a tributary of the Beijiang River… Everyone, please be sure to wear sunscreen!!

Is it summer in Guangzhou these days? [Facepalm] It's too hot. Let the kids go on vacation today. I took a photo and posted it on WeChat Moments. Everyone thought I went to Dubai or Morocco. Actually, it's in a hotel in Qingyuan There are dome palace buildings with Arabic style 🕌 Every shot is like a foreign vacation movie ✅How to play in 2 days and 1 night? 🌟You can wear a flowing long skirt for photos, or rent exotic clothes from the hotel; 🌟Check in at the 2-meter-high Aladdin lamp in the lobby, and take photos with the Arab guy at the door; 🌟There are two indoor and outdoor swimming pools, with swaying palm trees outdoors and a Moroccan-style indoor pool. There is also a children's pool. 🌟You can go to the lake to watch the sunset. There is also a small island called Flower Island on the lake, where you can enjoy the entire Aladdin Castle; 🌟On the second day, we checked in at the playground, the wave pool, Arab's farm, and the forest non-powered playground. Children will definitely like it; 🌟The decorations of several restaurants in the hotel are very nice, but I haven't tried them this time. I will try them next time. ✅Nearby recommendations 1. We went to Qingyuan Chimelong the next day, which is about 20 minutes’ drive from the hotel. 2. Nearby food: Qingyuan Auntie Food Stall, which is recommended by many people. In general, the price/performance ratio is really high! Staying on weekends is only around ￥500, it is a good place to leave the kids and go on a family trip ~ Guangzhou 🚗 drive for 1 hour, next time I will ask my bestie to bring the kids here

| Come to Chimelong to see animals who don't like to work. 👉🏻 The biggest feeling of seeing animals at Chimelong Qingyuan is—carefree and totally chill. ❤️ Animals live very comfortably in their suitable homes. 👀 When "humans" come to visit, they are also free to roam. 📸 The great animal migration is like a family reunion for them; the scene is super shocking, and selfies and photos taken by others all turn out great. 🦒p2 "Even if Lei Jun comes, it can't affect my meal." There are also those who are already dozing off, eating snacks at work, and huddling together to bask in the sun. Oh my god! 🙋‍♀ I'd like a job like this, please~

Qingyuan Chimelong Safari Park Guide: 1. Best time to visit: We recommend entering the park at around 9 am to make the most of your day. It takes about 7 hours to explore the entire park. 2. Transportation: Driving is more convenient, and there is ample parking available. If you choose public transportation, you can take a bus or taxi, which is relatively convenient. 3. Interactive experiences: If you're bringing children, we highly recommend the kangaroo interaction area and other animal interaction activities. Additionally, the Ferris wheel is a great way to relax and enjoy a bird's-eye view of the park. 4. Tips: Some performances may not be very appealing, so we suggest not focusing too much on them. Instead, enjoy the animal interactions and park attractions at your leisure. Qingyuan Chimelong Safari Park Experience: Qingyuan Chimelong Safari Park offers a unique experience. Compared to other zoos, the animals here are much closer to visitors, allowing you to see details up close, especially with monkeys, orangutans, and birds. It feels like they're right next to you, which is a rare experience in other zoos. The animal interaction experiences are fantastic. For example, in the kangaroo meadow, visitors can buy food to feed the kangaroos and get up close to other animals. Children will especially love it. The staff is very friendly, and almost everyone greets you with a warm smile, making you feel welcome. The park's facilities are also excellent, with plenty of clean restrooms. Although some performances may not be particularly captivating, the Ferris wheel offers a relaxing way to enjoy the park's beautiful scenery. Overall, Qingyuan Chimelong Safari Park is a great place for family outings, especially for children to get up close and personal with animals.
