Follow the subway line 16 to travel around Shanghai Wildlife Park and Xinchang ancient town in one day. I took the subway in the morning and caught up with the rush hour. It takes one and a half hours to change from line 9 to line 11 and then to line 16 and get off at the wildlife park.

The subway station of the safari park is 20 minutes' walk away from the Shanghai safari park. You can also take bus Huinan No.6 to the gate of the safari park. There are many local private cars after the subway leaves the station, which costs 5 yuan per person to the zoo. I still choose to walk, along the direction of the subway, walk to the South six highway, turn left and continue to walk for three or four minutes to the park gate.

Shanghai Wildlife Park covers an area of 2300 mu. As it is not a rest day, there are not many tourists today, but the weather is excellent. It is suggested to get a free map after entering the park, with detailed information of animal performances. All kinds of animal performances are still wonderful.

There are 210 flamingos not far from the garden. This kind of bird has beautiful body and thin legs. It lives in shallow water.

A couple of young lovers separated from the birds and went out on a date. The two birds were beautiful.

In May, the temperature in Shencheng is hot and humid, which is suitable for plant growth. The park is full of wild flowers and green grass.

There is a sea lion show at 10:00 a.m. and it has been half done since I came in* Two sea lion performances are held every day at 10:00 a.m. and 3:15 p.m. at the Sea Lion Pavilion.

Two chubby sea lions are playing volleyball under the guidance of the coach. Their seemingly chubby bodies are extremely flexible and well balanced, comparable to the top athletes of human beings.

The sea lion jumped out of the water and hit the ball hanging in the air, which attracted a lot of applause.

The group performance is even more wonderful. When the music starts, two sea lions come out of the water to hit the ball at the same time. They are familiar with the tacit action. I don't know how many times they have practiced. The wildlife park is divided into car access area and pedestrian area. You must take a bus to visit the beast.

There are also two kinds of buses in the car entry area. This one is an animal feeding car with a protective net. Tourists can feed the beasts, have closer contact with the animals, and have more strict protective measures. You need to buy another ticket to take this kind of car.

Most of the tourists take this kind of ordinary tour bus, walking on a fixed road, watching the beast through the window. The entrance ticket includes the cost of the tour bus.

Car into the area is divided into seven areas, each area is separated by barbed wire and two iron doors, can not be connected with each other. The animals here are all wild, imitating the environment of nature, and you can see all kinds of rare animals along the way. When the bus doesn't drive to the area where there are many animals, it will stop for tourists to watch and take photos.

After a while, on the African grassland, groups of zebra antelopes are enjoying the warm sunshine in Shencheng. Zebras are as beautiful as they are on TV.

Lions have a separate lion zone. Lions like to live in groups according to their families, which is different from tigers living alone. Most of the lions sleep in the shade of the road, and this one is the only one crawling under the tree on the side of the road to serve as the guard of the family.

I don't know if this one is just the patriarch of the lion group. He has a big bed for himself. Although the tour bus is close at hand, he turns a blind eye to it.

When you enter the Northeast Tiger area, you can see a Siberian tiger walking slowly on the road from a distance. There are so many Siberian tigers in this park.

Maybe I'm used to big scenes, but the tigers here are very calm. No matter the tourists on the bus yell, the tiger never looks at the tourists.

The tour bus turns around and returns to the tour station. The walking area is larger than the car entrance area, and there are more kinds of animals.

In the center of the park is a lake, where many swans and other birds live. Visitors can walk to the bank to get close to the swans.

I saw kangaroo for the first time in Shanghai. Although this animal is good at running, it can't jump out of a meter high fence.

I saw giraffe from a long distance. Its body is so big, but its head is very small. The trees in the garden were all fenced in or they would have been eaten up.

Giant pandas have seen it many times, and it is still one of the most eye-catching venues in the park. This kind of animal is round, fat and lazy, but it is loved by all human beings.

The elephant is so big that it can ride around. The stadium where elephants live is also designed in tropical style.

There are many animals in the animal photography area that can be photographed with tourists.

Camels and elephants are very popular animal stars here.

At 12:00 noon, there will be a tiger feeding performance, but it can only be seen through the thick glass. Ten minutes before the start, the glass was full of people* Every day, at 10:30, 12:00, 13:00, 14:00, 15:00, at the tiger feeding training ground.

The breeder put the fresh meat on the hook and hung it in the air. Several tigers competed for sumo. The tiger climbed the pole very quickly.

The process is also very wonderful. Every tiger is a mathematician. After calculating the azimuth and height, he can hit the target immediately and never miss.

There are several restaurants in the safari park. There are a lot of tourists for lunch, and the dishes are of average quality.

The price of food and beverage in the scenic spot is at least twice as high as that in the urban area. The rice is too soft and rotten. A thin piece of bacon is enough for half a person. At 1:00 after lunch, there is a wonderful animal performance, which can't be missed in baizhushan square.

It's still 10 minutes away from the beginning when we enter the stadium. Most of the stands are full. The girls and boys are performing their riding skills in the hot field.

These riders all look under 20 years old and have excellent riding skills. You can also bend down and pick up the red cloth on the ground immediately.

Elephant is also a very smart animal, with two Petite beauty actors to complete a wonderful performance.

Although the elephant is huge, it can stand on one foot and has excellent balance.

Just born two or three months ago, the tiger keeps walking back and forth for a moment. Tourists can take pictures with the tiger in their arms.

Small leopard is at ease lying on the ground for a nap, animals are very cute when they are small.

An animal with no name likes to stand on a stone and look into the distance.

Its little friends are sitting on the grass, naive.

Crocodiles like to bask in the sun. A stone in the pool has become a treasure of geomantic omen.

The number of pigeons in the zoo is the largest.

Turn a circle or back to Flamingo here, Flamingo is still quiet and beautiful. Take Huinan No.6 bus from the park gate, two stops to the "wildlife park" subway station of line 16, and then take subway station 1 to "Xinchang". From Xinchang subway station, you can take a bus to "Xinchang" station. It's not far from Xinchang ancient town after you get off the bus. But I chose to walk for half an hour. At present, there is only one Xinchang History Museum in Xinchang ancient town.

It has been a year since I came to Xinchang ancient town last time. The biggest change is that it is more commercialized than last year. Last year, it was rare to find a restaurant in the ancient town. Today, there are seven or eight restaurants in the ancient town, and there are still few tourists.

Xinchang ancient town is mainly two streets along the river. The rain shelter corridor on the Henan side has been repaired, and the road surface has been laid again, which is more neat and smooth.

Every shop along the river has its own characteristics. At the door of the shop, there are all kinds of blessing signs, which swing around when the wind blows.

Xinchang ancient town is small in scale, and it is still very clean now. Maybe it's related to the intensity of publicity. The popularity of the ancient town is not high enough.

There are several such posting boxes in the ancient town, which are naturally convenient for tourists to deliver postcards.

The characteristic of the riverside store is that there is a lamp on each table, which is beautiful in appearance.

There are always inexplicable literary and artistic styles along the river banks of ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River.

The street on the north side of the river is not wide, and it is empty without tourists. Most of the original dwellings have been transformed into shops. Now the street is a folk art street, displaying local handicrafts.

I haven't eaten the eight treasures rice with hand-made lard and bean paste. It must be local characteristics. The price is not expensive.

There is a pot of flowers hanging in front of every house. The shapes are different, but they are equally beautiful.

Gourd shops are rare. Only when a small shop has its own characteristics can it survive.

After shopping for most of the afternoon, I was tired and hungry. In a small shop at Qiaotou, there are only 4 tables and 4 yuan for fresh meat dumplings, which are affordable.

A bowl of spicy meat noodles with local characteristics in Shanghai costs only 10 yuan, which is much lower than the price of restaurants in normal scenic spots.

On the west side of the ancient town, Gangxi road is only a few tens of meters away from Xinchang street, but tourists are rare. All the people living here are local residents. The houses are near the water, and there is a small bridge in front of each house. The walls are mottled and gray, which is the original architecture of Jiangnan Water Town.

The Dragon Boat Festival is coming, and it's time to eat zongzi. There are many shops in the ancient town that offer wrapped zongzi. Hand wrapped dumplings always feel better than factory made ones.

The ancient town has also opened this kind of small and fresh art shop, which is suitable for today's young people.

Hongxi street is the road leading in and out of the ancient town. There are old buildings beside the road, and the road surface is smooth.
