I didn't really enjoyed the park. First it was really expensive as we paid 300$ per entry (during national holiday).
Then inside the park except for the animals any activity is either closed or we must to pay for it.
The facilities looked very old and were not very well maintained. The fountains were empty, the plants weren't cut. The restaurant inside were full and we had to wait at least 30-40 min to buy anything, while vending machine were awfully expensive (50$ for water). The only place where we could have buy cheap drinks was near the entry but it doesn't seem to appear on the map.
For the animals, some of the cages were really small, and some of them didn't look very happy. The food for animal had to be bought too.
We didn't see much employees except for shop and paid activities so it's hard to understand where the money is spent. In the end we paid 300$ each to walk in the park without much things to do after the animals. (About 40min)
I guess if you're a big group of friends having a picnic, or with many kids it's ok. But if you are adults going for the day, i wouldn't...
Read moreGreat place for kids to enjoy outdoor space, feeding animals, activities, and just run around. You can purchase passes to go inside the pens of alpacas, deer, and capybaras to feed them. The alpacas are the most aggressive and the deer are timid. The capybaras can seem to careless whether or not you're in the pens. Aside from feeding those animals, you can also feed horses, goats, and sheep. You can also feed Koi and other fish at the lake or Japanese garden area.
There is plenty of space, so many people come here to picnic. There are food and drinks available for purchase on site. In addition, kids have some go kart rides they can play with. Couples and families can rent tandem or quad bikes to ride around the park or peddle boats on the lake.
I only have two knocks on the place. One, it's old and beat up. Second, some of the animals seem to only be in decent conditions.
Overall, it's always great to have so much open space in Taiwan for the kids to run free. There are a few other sections of the park I didn't mention, but those who visit can easily spend half a day to a...
Read moreWe came as part of my son's preschool field trip, and I can understand why most of the people here seemed to be visiting on school trips, since I can't imagine why anyone would pay good money to come here. Front section was devoted to animals, with rabbits and goats, pigs and cows represented. There was a horse too. Other than that, we took a little tour on the trolley "train", and I did not see a single sight that made me think "sure I want to stick around and check this out." Food choices were miserable, and there was a real sense of neglect to pretty much everything but the large field near the dining halls (it had nice grass, but it was just a field.) The most interesting thing was probably the little room with the bug collection, and even those were showing signs of neglect. The whole place could use a good renovation. Our son's field trip ended at 3:00, and by 3:15 we were rolling out of the parking lot. Even the kids didn't clamor about sticking around, and they haven't mentioned going back once, which is...
