Weihai Shendiaoshan Wildlife Park: A One-Day Guide to Enjoying Cute Animals
🔥 Weihai Xixiakou not only has beautiful sea views but also boasts the largest mountain wildlife park in China, located on Shendiao Mountain. Here is a firsthand guide based on actual experience.
✔ Xixiakou Shendiaoshan Wildlife World is unique compared to other similar parks because it is built in the mountains, giving a sense of 'experiencing the wild and returning to nature.' The variety and number of animals are also vast. Of course, this design makes it more tiring to explore, and the time spent wandering, watching, and playing will be extended, enough to fill a whole day.
🌻 Upon entering the zoo early in the morning, you can follow the official route, which basically circles around the mountain. The scenery and environment along the way are incomparable to flatland zoos, with high green coverage, birds chirping, and flowers blooming. Each animal area has designed activities, making it impossible to get bored. Memorable areas include the beast area, cute animal area, marine animal area, and primate area. The animals seem accustomed to seeing people and have interesting postures. There are also many special albino animals, which are equally memorable.
🍂 Regarding time and timing: You must rush in early in the morning; other times are not recommended because it gets too hot in the mountains during summer, making it tiring to walk. You need to leave enough time to play, and the animals are generally in better condition in the morning.
👣 Regarding the best route and check-in spots: The park is large, and you can either drive or walk through it. The latter has a fixed route with clear signs, making it easier to get close to the animals, but safety is also ensured for the fierce animals.
⭐ Regarding the scenery: The environment is relatively rich in midsummer, and the area near the sea animals is quite cool and photogenic.
🏡 Regarding surrounding facilities: There are many amusement parks, snack stalls, and two check-in spots where you can get close to the animals (feeding them). There are also hotels near the entrance, making it convenient to stay if you get tired.
📷 Regarding photography: It is recommended to use a 70-200mm lens as many animals are quite far from people. The giraffe manor is also recommended for taking photos with them.
🎤 Regarding transportation: You can drive through the entire park, and there is a large parking lot at the entrance. Public transportation is not very convenient.
👍 Regarding ticket purchase: You can buy tickets on-site.
🔥 Must-see tips before checking in:
1. Go early because there is a lot to see and the journey is not short.
2. Not recommended for very young children as there are many steps, making it inconvenient.
3. Stay hydrated at all times.
4. Allocate at least 4 hours for the visit.
Specific location: Xixiakou Village, Chengshan Town, Rongcheng City, Weihai City
Opening hours: 7:30-18:00
Type of visit: Internet-famous check-in, family trip

Weihai Shendiaoshan: A picturesque summer resort, a great place for a summer vacation!
Weihai Shendiaoshan Zoo is located in the Xixiakou Tourist Resort in Rongcheng City, Shandong Province, just a few hundred meters away from Hailu Island. Its geographical location by the mountains and the sea, along with its excellent ecological environment, adds value to this tourist destination. In summer, you can watch the sea and animals while enjoying the cool sea breeze, making it a great place to escape the heat. Initially, Shendiaoshan was thought to be exclusively for family trips, but after personally visiting Shendiaoshan Zoo, I found that it is not only suitable for family trips but also for leisure vacations, student trips, and couple trips. It is indeed a rare treasure tourist resort in Weihai City, especially suitable for escaping the summer heat!
Here are some tips for visiting Shendiaoshan Zoo, hoping to be useful to everyone!
1. Highlights: The natural landscape by the mountains and the sea and the original ecological forest environment are very distinctive. The zoo raises and protects the world's most representative animals for viewing and research. The aquarium in the zoo is one of the few truly meaningful marine zoos in Shandong and even globally, very beautiful and very impressive!
2. Ticket information: Adult tickets are 160 yuan, children taller than 1.2 meters but not exceeding 1.4 meters are half price, children shorter than 1.2 meters and elderly people over 70 years old are free, but those who enjoy free tickets need to make an online reservation in advance to enter the park.
3. Opening hours: Open to the public from 7:30 to 18:00, ticket sales and entry stop at 15:30. If you buy a ticket and exceed the entry time, you can apply for a refund or postpone entry to the next day.
4. Duration of visit: Shendiaoshan Zoo is quite large and has very good scenery. Generally, it takes at least 4 hours to visit, but if you need an in-depth tour or a family trip, it is recommended to spend about 5 hours.
5. Transportation: The best way to get to Shendiaoshan Zoo is by self-driving. The scenic area has a large free parking lot available. If self-driving is not possible, you can also take the intercity bus No. 4 from Weihai City to Xixiakou. You can also take the tourist express line No. 1 from Rongcheng High-speed Railway Station and Rongcheng City to Xixiakou Station.
6. Food and accommodation: There are many farmhouses, homestays, and budget hotels near the Xixiakou Tourist Area. During the off-peak tourist season, they are all good value for money. There are also many seafood restaurants and small eateries, so eating is not a problem. However, prices are much higher than in Rongcheng City and Weihai City, so be prepared.
7. Precautions: Although the sea breeze in Weihai in summer is very comfortable, the ultraviolet rays are very strong, so be sure to pay attention to sun protection. Especially for young ladies who love beauty, it doesn't matter much for rough guys like me to get tanned. However, strong ultraviolet rays are very harmful to the eyes, so it is strongly recommended to wear sunglasses to protect your eyes.
