Introduction of Hongshan Forest Zoo

Hongshan Forest Zoo is located in the north of Xuanwu Lake, Nanjing, near Nanjing Railway Station, and was rebuilt from the former Xuanwu Lake Zoo in Nanjing. With its unique forest landscape, abundant animal resources and colorful theme activities, this zoo has become one of the most distinctive zoos in China.

Three mountains in the garden

Hongshan Forest Zoo is built around a mountain. There are three mountains in the park. Prepare to climb the mountain. To the east, the main peak is Dahongshan, about 80 meters above sea level. There is a big pavilion imitating the architecture of the Six Dynasties on the top of the mountain. It is three stories high and can be seen from a distance. There is a beast area in Dahongshan. At the entrance of Peking University is Xiaohongshan, with a bird area; In the southwest of Shenyang Village, the entrance to the gate is Niu Shan, where there are herbivores and primates. You can enter the garden from any of these three gates. There are many forks in the garden. I suggest that you study the map before playing and find out what kind of animals you want to see. Otherwise, walking back and forth, climbing the mountain will be very tired.

Animal exhibition area

Flamingos, ostriches and pheasants can be seen in the bird area. The green peacocks and white peacocks in Peacock Garden are most expected by tourists. There is a talking gray parrot in the parrot house, which is an old animal in the zoo. The zoo was there when it was still in Xuanwu Lake. You can see white tigers, panthers and other big guys in the beast area. Don't forget to visit the Panda Pavilion and the Little Panda Pavilion. It feels lovely. Giraffes in herbivorous areas will look at you with wide eyes, hippos will look dull, and zebras, kangaroos, elephants and so on can be seen. A brown capuchin monkey 14 years old in the primate area is also an elder in the zoo and often "plays" with the blue-faced mandrill next door, which is several years younger than him. The big star orangutan in the orangutan museum is the image spokesperson of the zoo and the treasure of the town garden.

Amphibians and reptiles hall

The amphibian and reptile museum near Dongdaemun is free to visit by ticket. There is also an aquarium, where you can see many freshwater fish and turtles. There are Penguin Pavilion and Pet Park in Peking University. You can watch bird acrobatics and smart pig performances in the pet park, which are repeated every day.

adventure playground

Visitors with children can also go to the Children's Paradise in the East Gate. There are bumper cars, high-altitude bicycles, pirate boats and other recreational facilities, and there are extra charges. Forest exploration at the southwest end can take the "brave road" composed of suspension bridge, cable bridge and barrel bridge.
