Off-season combo tickets for 14 yuan are really attractive Which zoo can you see 8 giant pandas🐼 for 14 yuan? To the right of the entrance is the Panda Pavilion, with the popular Meng Lan in the Olympic Pavilion. To see Meng Lan🉐, you should wait in the outdoor area, if you have time, consider it. We equally love every panda🐼. Around 1 pm, we were lucky to see Meng Bao and Meng Yu eating bamboo together, and Pang Dahai (?) taking a walk, while the ones in the Asian Games Pavilion were mostly sleeping💤💤💤. The Panda Pavilion ticket is one-time only; if you exit and want to re-enter, you have to buy another ticket. The Beijing Zoo has a large area and the facilities are very retro, reminiscent of the zoos from over 30 years ago. Now that it's cold, many animals don't come out to the outdoor areas. The bird area is worth visiting to see the eagles and owls, which have a very wise look. Tiger🐯 Mountain is worth a visit; if the Siberian tigers🐅 are in a good mood, they will interact with visitors at the glass window. The tapirs are in the indoor pavilion, which is warm, and they will come to the window to nuzzle people's noses👃🏻. The kangaroos🦘 are all doing business inside the house. By the river, you can also see ducks🦆 or geese sliding on the ice. Although there aren't many animals at the Beijing Zoo, just walking around and looking can take up an afternoon. If you're bringing little kids, make sure to bring a lightweight stroller.

It is open from Tuesday-Sunday 9:00Am to 4:30pm. As an advanced education base, it aims at teenagers' science popularization and public astronomical exhibition. When we visited The Planetarium, there were many kindergarten students with their teachers. I was amazed how they introduced the planets and some things to the children. It was quite interesting. #2024wish #china #beijingchina #planetarium
