Avoid these mistakes

1

Real-name booking + 2nd-gen ID scanning is mandatory, and the foreign-passport flow is unclear. Call 400-883-0083 before buying to confirm passport entry and avoid being unable to enter on site.

2

Regular/specific-day fares differ, so the wrong date type can be bought. Pick your target date on the official calendar and verify the day's price before paying.

3

Some zones/facilities shut temporarily (e.g. Panda Village suspended May 2026; kids' bumper cars and the little flying-dragon ride stopped). Check the official news/notice board before travelling.

4

Outdoor walking in heat drains energy. Prefer the drive-through zone + cableway to save effort, and hydrate in summer.

5

Hours vary by date, so old-guide timing may be off. Go by the official site's/on-site day notice.

6

Return: departing before park close concentrates crowds. Allow time to exit and connect to the metro.
