    "The on-site price is 51 knives for an adult, which is almost 250 yuan. So Trip.com is still very cost-effective. You don't have to change tickets directly to check the QR code. I definitely recommend this park. The small animals you want to see can be seen. And there are many cute children, there is also a point, you can directly see the cross-sea bridge and the Sydney Opera House on the giraffe side and take pictures. Parking is directly available"

    "The little brother is very nice, the staff is warm and kind, we are late, but we can still use that card, the scenery is actually really good, but it is OK to punch in once, overall praise. The parking lot is 3 minutes walk from the place to change tickets and go upstairs.
