We had enjoyed the zoo so much the first time we went, we decided that we would return to see the things we had missed. I like that the Chinese name literally means "animal garden." It's a wonderful zoo all except the pet area. It was extremely depressing! There were mostly dogs, many different breeds, but in small rooms with no toys and many did not even have water. I will NOT return to that section!
I think one of my favorite areas is the Goldfish Area. There are so many different kinds of funny looking fish! We also got to see the giant panda in it's large enclosure, but I unfortunately there was only one. We also enjoyed two tiger cubs that were in a room together. One was sleeping, but the one that was awake was very playful!

My family currently lives in a small rural town in North Carolina, USA. In May 09, our 9yo daughter and I first traveled to China with my husband for his work . We returned home and traveled to Alaska for 3 weeks to visit my sister and her husband. In Sept 09, we returned to China for our second trip, and will be returning again.
