Four Xinyi guys drove to Gaozhou Reservoir for the first time. They used Amap to search directly for Gaozhou Reservoir. The car drove further and further away. Fortunately, they asked the villagers and found that they had gone to the wrong place. It turned out that Amap had to search for Yuhu Scenic Area. The reservoir is much larger than that in Xinyi. The scenery is still good, but it rained heavily after lunch. And the river cruise is expensive.

This popular service area, recommended by the restaurant owner, is definitely worth a visit! The best part is it's free! I never expected a service area to be so beautiful, and it even has outlet stores selling designer brands.

The interactive underwater boat is a lifesaver for families with kids! We rode in a small car slowly into the whale shark exhibit, watching schools of fish swim by up close through the portholes. My child exclaimed, "It feels like we're in a submarine!" The unique perspective from the boat allowed us to see whale sharks and schools of fish gathering, keeping the kids entertained. We even bought a cute and practical whale shark plush toy at the exit shop. The marine wonders area was clean and bright, and although it was indoors, it wasn't stuffy at all. The staff explained things in soft, professional voices, without being loud or disruptive. While the queues were long, the interactive screens kept us entertained.

We had to go early. We unexpectedly arrived at Xishan during peak season. I was stunned. Fortunately, the temperature in Kunming was comfortable. If it were in Guangdong, I would have fainted from the heat. The road to Longmen Grottoes was too crowded, but the scenery healed everything. Overlooking Dianchi Lake, it was really beautiful. The oxygen ions in Xishan were so strong.

For families with children, it's definitely worth a visit! Visiting the entire park in one day would be very rushed and tiring, leaving your knees sore. For a better experience, I recommend two days and one night. The park has a wide variety of animals, and the cable car and miniature train are quite unique; children had a great time. The staff are very friendly, patiently answering questions and engaging in friendly interactions. If I had to complain, firstly, the food prices inside the park are relatively high (although the Chinese food was okay); secondly, the smell was too pungent when the miniature train passed the bird area (I wonder how this can be improved); and thirdly, the prices in the interactive areas are also quite expensive (for example, feeding the giraffes costs 36 yuan for a single branch!!!). Overall, I highly recommend it for families with children!
