    "The last typhoon had a serious impact on the garden. Many trees fell. You can see monkeys and squirrels who escaped from prison. There are two to six animals per species. There are many crocodiles, birds and monkeys. There are two pandas. When we went, both of them were sleeping. First drive the car lane, then walk the trail, and run to the panda. As a result, the panda is in the last hall, the whole journey is about two or three hours, I feel that the ticket is more than 140 is a bit expensive."

    "- Price concessions: - It is indeed more cost-effective to buy a parent-child ticket for 188 yuan, one large and one small during the National Day. Compared with buying two adult tickets separately, it can save a certain fee, which is an affordable choice for families traveling with parents and children. This gives more families the opportunity to enjoy the park's amusement projects and entertainment atmosphere together, adding parent-child interaction and family fun times. - Project experience:- Amusement facilities:- Stimulation projects: projects such as mine cars may be more popular. Although it feels slow when watching below, it will be found that the sense of speed and stimulation exceeds expectations after personal experience, which can bring surprises to tourists. - Immersive projects: such as fantasy flying, let tourists sit in seats and rise high and feel various scenes on a spherical screen, as if they were immersive flying the sky, giving people a unique visual experience. There is also Zheng He Xiayang Project, one-to-one re-engraved Zheng He Bao Ship, combined with naked eye navigation images and seat shaking and water spraying effects, can make tourists deeply feel the excitement of navigation. - Performance activities: During the National Day, the park usually has more performances and activities. For example, special float punching, children's painting experience, fun games and other activities, these activities increase the fun and interactive nature of play, especially suitable for parents and children to participate. - Environmental aspects of the park: - After the typhoon, the park has been cleaned up and rebuilt, and the reopened Long Shadow Global 100 may show a new picture"
