姜如意:“The biggest highlights of the Minnesota State Zoo are the animal shows and the aquarium, which is also the children's favorite place. There are many marine creatures in the aquarium, which are particularly eye-catching and beautiful under the light.”

⭐️GloriaGlowing⭐️:“⭐️[Nickelodeon Universe]
❗️Enjoy the fun with your kids!❗️
🔓My 7-year-old daughter is over 125cm tall, so we unlocked all the rides!
⚠️Some rides require an adult accompaniment if you're under 150cm tall!
There are gentle rides suitable for younger children, as well as thrilling ones!
There's also a huge Lego area and a crayon-themed pavilion!
⚠️Reminder: Don't try to complete the experience in one day! You won't be able to finish it all!
🚫For family outings, please avoid wearing skirts! It's inconvenient!
🚘If you're not from here, stay in downtown St. Paul | It's a 15-20 minute drive!”
