Shanghai Natural Wild Insect Kingdom — Attraction in Shanghai

If you're in Shanghai, you should know that crowd is a big issue. So, if you visit any place during peak hours or holidays, you'd most likely end up getting disappointed. And especially the places that are built in-door like this. We went here on a working day and there were only a few people inside so we enjoyed our trip. My kids loved seeing everything without any problem. When we entered we thought its too small but it has a lot of stuff inside. You can find a number of snakes (python and boa mostly), beetles, spiders, a huge variety of turtles and lizards and some frogs, butterflies, mammals and budgerigar and lovebirds (you can touch). You could easily read the name and info tags as it was in both Chinese and English. Also, the staff was very kind and helpful, some of them could speak English. The only bad thing we noticed was that most of the animals were kept in very small cages especially the big crocodile in such a tiny cage. Also, we expected a lot of different kinds of butterflies but we only found a small area where we could spot them. If you have kids, you should visit. If not, then its best...

It's really just a mini children's zoo and aquarium combo. There are some insects but also other small animals, a goat petting/feeding area and a fish catching section. The latter two cost extra. Not sure how much as I wasn't too interested. The Chinese name might correctly indicate what this place is. Had an alright time. Cost of 60 yuan for an adult...

I don’t know what we were thinking.

Besides being quite expensive I've never seen so many dead and wounded animals.

The place was dirty, many animals looked sad in rather small exclosures. There's shit everywhere and dirty water. There's a dead turtle and tons of dead fish in the aquariums. The hamster things had wounds all over...
