    I've been to the Shanghai Romance Park, and I felt the park was too small. The Hangzhou park, supposedly the main base, is indeed very large, with many more shows, and is much better than the Shanghai one.

    I took my mom to check it out. Now, except for the Tongtian River, all the other attractions are open to everyone without any queues, which is so much better than waiting for one or two hours for each attraction in the summer. The cliff swing used to be an extra charge, but now it's free, though you need two people to go on it. I mustered up my courage and went up for a near-death experience 😂 The roller coaster was my favorite attraction; I rode it four times in a row—it was absolutely exhilarating! We just stepped in when the gate opened and rode for four hours straight—the experience was fantastic.

    I guess I didn't do my research properly. I always felt that such a large museum like the Zhejiang Provincial Museum shouldn't be like this! They can't even offer a paid guided tour without a group of ten people, so they have to find a more expensive guide. At 150 yuan per hour, that's probably the most expensive guided tour I've ever heard of. Maybe because I paid for it, my expectations were high, so I hoped the content of the tour would be more comprehensive. 😊

    We unlocked a new experience of touring the wildlife park in a convertible; the view was expansive, and we felt closer to the animals. We take our children to a wildlife park in every city we visit, and Hangzhou Wildlife Park has a very reasonable layout, making the visit easy. We get closer to the animals than at Chimelong, and the interactive feeding experience is reasonably priced. The rides are a bit small, but there are fewer people on weekdays, so there are no queues. It's a small but exquisite zoo!

    I was immediately struck by its beauty; Liangzhu in autumn is covered in reeds, making it incredibly photogenic. However, the area is quite large, and the scenery can be a bit repetitive, leading to some aesthetic fatigue after a while.

    The price is unbeatable; excellent value for money. It features tigers, giraffes, leopards, and bears. The park is a good size, perfect for young children. 2-3 hours is recommended. If you're using a stroller, think carefully, as there are quite a few steps. It's located near West Lake, so driving isn't very convenient (there are odd-even license plate restrictions).

    Overall, it was a good experience. The attractions are best explored at a leisurely pace; it took us over four hours to complete the entire route (cable car up, walking down). We strolled around each spot, took photos, and even ate some tofu, tea eggs, and oden when we got hungry. Because it was the off-season, there weren't many tourists, and many photogenic spots made for great pictures. It's definitely worth a visit.

    The children had a lot of fun and went rafting countless times. It was a bit cold indoors and needed a blanket. There were many outdoor activities that required a height of more than 1.3 meters to play. There were staff watching each pool, so parents could rest assured.

    I visited the Liangzhu Museum today and felt there were too few artifacts, and many of them were not unearthed from Liangzhu. However, because there were few adults visiting, there were many children.
