Pandas sleep for 22 hours a day, they are often more active in the morning and you have a higher likelihood of seeing them then. We went mid morning and 3 were awake - great experience Clean and tidy, easy to navigate as an English speaker

Great place for family with kids. Try to visit on weekdays so you have small queues on giant panda. For some tropical animals, the will put them in to the cages for more warm temperatures. Bring your good shoes. There a restaurant, coffee shops, and a lot of snacks vendors.

$19CNY for a adult , cannot get much cheaper than that for a zoo! A large zoo that is quite spread out but had plenty of animals to see including pandas, polar bears, tigers and lions.

Very easy to get into the zoo only 19 yen for the zoo entrance and panda House can buy it in person or scan the QR code and add in passport number and details
Foreign children at the age of 6 - free admission
Foreign senior citizens at the age of 60 and above get - free admission with their passport
Downside is that to go visit Meng Lan panda you have to wait until he wake up to go view and there’s no rough time for it.
