Brief information on Shanghai Wild Animal Park  

Occupying an area of 153 hectares, Shanghai Wild Animal Park is the first national wild animal park in Shanghai, located in Xuanqiao Town of Nanhui District and 35 km from downtown Shanghai. The Park was opened to the public on November 18, 1995. There are more than 200 kinds of representative and rare animals from all areas of the world, such as giraffes, zebras, antelopes as well as the endangered giant panda, the snub-nosed monkey and the Chinese tiger.  

The park consists of two parts, a bus visiting area and a walking area.

In the bus visiting area, you can see a gentle giraffe, elongating his neck and in expectation of your visit. You also can see an elephant, the biggest land animal, greeting the guest gently; what is more, you can find you are among golden antelope, one of the 3 national treasures. Meanwhile, here you can see the fastest animal in the world, the cheetah, which can run 110 km per hour; the African lion, the king of beasts, showing his regal deportment; and a clumsy bear, begging food from the passing buses…

In the walking area, you can enjoy the world’s rarer animals, such as the white lion, white tiger, white kangaroo, giant panda, and Chinese alligator. And in the small animal garden, you can hug the smaller animals, feed lovely monkeys, and have the experience of the zoo keeper to see personally the miraculous world of a working zoo.

In addition, the park also offers animal performances, showing the charm and skill of the animals and their gift in performing.
