Bejing zoo



Back in Bejing now we visited the famous Bejing zoo, home of the pandas. Was really looking forward to it. Once we got through the door we saw the pandas first.


They were great creatures and very cute, smaller than I imagined as well. The problem was the surrounding area for the public to view them was hectic. Crowds of people pushing you over trying to get to the front. It was like a mosh pit, i got elbowed once or twice. That i didn't enjoy, people aren't patient in this zoo...


But the pandas were nice. :-)
The zoo didn't impress me at all. There were a few funny monkeys but the zoo was so big but there was nothing in it! Was like Tianaman square, massive but nothing to really look at. We spent 10 minutes walking before we found the next set of animals. Some places like the reptile house you had to pay to get into, even though we'd paid to get into the zoo! Don't recomend it at all.




So are 10 day holiday to china came to an end. China isn't a relaxing holiday, its loud, busy and hectic but if you want to visit somewhere different, embrace a new culture and visit many famous sites then it is a brilliant holiday. I really enjoyed it and the Chinese are so friendly. I had a great experience and would deffenetly go again.
