There are few people on weekdays, so you can play, run and jump to your heart's content. It has basic facilities and is suitable for children under 3 years old. It may be a bit boring for elementary school students, but children in kindergarten or below will have a great time.

The facilities of the parent-child park are well maintained and the staff are very enthusiastic. The three-and-a-half-year-old child had a lot of fun. It is a good place worth visiting again!

There are not many people on weekdays, so it is very suitable for children in kindergarten to play. It is generally clean, and the toilets and external eating areas are convenient. There is also a large monitor screen for watching the children in the outside eating area.

Parking is convenient, there are many artworks to see, and there are also many cats and fat koi. It is suitable for mountain climbing and bathing. The venue is not big, so it is just right to arrange a day trip!

Buy tickets online and exchange them directly for admission at the counter on the first floor, which is very convenient and cost-effective! The park is well maintained! There are not many indoor parking lots, so there may be no space.

A good place to go on a rainy day. The space is comfortable and not too crowded. You can also learn about the bread making process and there are cute puppets for taking pictures.

The dishes are diverse and the shrimps are very big. There was a Rotary Club and Coca-Cola employees gathering for dinner that day. Although there were many people, the dishes were replenished quickly, but unfortunately there was no salmon in the sashimi🍣
