Get up close and personal with all your favorite animals. You can pet a zebra, feed all the animals you want, and even RIDE an elephant's trunk after the Thai Elephant Show . The panda's have beautiful enclosure and chic souvenir shop. It has been the highlight of my stay. Next time I go I will ride the gondola, I... More

The zoo is not something to tackle in an afternoon, sprawling over many acres there is a great range of animals to see, from goats and small horses that you can pet, to tiger cubs that you can hold and have your photo taken with, lamas and deer that wander freely with you for parts of the zoo, so many...

Give yourself a full day for this place. The zoo itself is a delight, then there is a gondola ride over the mountain to see the rest of it.

This area is a sprawling zoo by acres (yes acres!) from end to end. If you like animals and have lots of energy to walk all day then visit this place. Check the tigers and hyaenas when being fed, pet the camels / giraffes and adore the shy lazy Panda. :)

Went to the zoo to have a look at pandas, sadly they were all returned to the Beijing Zoo for now. No pandas here people.... On the whole, the Dalian Zoo is quite big. It consists of two parts, where the other part you need to go by the cable car. To visit the whole zoo would take up the... More
