About
Nestled inside Jindian Forest Park in Panlong District of Kunming, this 4A wildlife scenic spot covers over 2800 mu of mountain woodland, stretching for a total sightseeing route of 16 kilometers. It is divided into multiple themed zones including Giant Panda Hall, African Grassland, Tiger Valley, Peacock Garden and Tropical Bird Pavilion, gathering hundreds of wild animal species native to Yunnan and exotic global creatures. Most animals are raised in semi-free-range mountain habitats for a closer viewing experience. The standard entry ticket covers all core animal exhibition areas, while sightseeing shuttle carts and animal feeding experiences require separate extra fees.
