❤ How to get to Peach Blossom Island?
✔️ There are three piers on the Jinji Lake shore to board boats to Peach Blossom Island: Wanghu Pavilion Pier, Moonlight Pier, and Right Bank Pier. We took the boat from Right Bank Pier, about a 5-minute ride.
✔️ On the return trip, the double-decker sightseeing boat at Right Bank Pier offers great views, including the Ferris wheel 🎡.
✔️ You can park your vehicle at Right Bank Pier.
❤ Peach Blossom Island play guide:
✔️ Water Formula: One yacht can hold one adult and one child, and you can control the speed yourself. Kids love it! Both adults and children must wear life jackets. You will get wet, so remember to bring a clean set of clothes for the kids.
✔️ Petting Zoo: Just past the Water Formula is the Petting Zoo, where you can get up close with deer, sheep, ducks, and rabbits.
✔️ Children’s Playground: Next to the Petting Zoo is a free children’s playground with slides, climbing nets, and swings.
✔️ Magic Web Playground: This playground has climbing nets, slides, and a sandpit, located under the shade of trees, making it very cool.
✔️ Jungle Adventure: Suitable for kids over 1.3 meters tall, featuring rope challenges and suspension bridges.
✔️ Island Train: There is also a small train that circles the island, costing 20 RMB per person.
❤ Central River Pier solar-powered boat guide:
✔️ It’s about a 5-minute drive from Right Bank Pier to Central River Pier. You can park at the underground parking lot of Yuanrong Times Square.
✔️ The solar-powered boat runs from Central River Pier to the Ferris wheel area, taking about 30 minutes round trip. From the boat, you can take photos of the Ferris wheel and the Flying Sculpture.
❤ Jinji Lake Wind Garden Playground guide:
✔️ After the boat ride, you can drive around Jinji Lake and stop at Wind Garden Playground. Parking is free on the roadside.
✔️ Wind Garden Playground is located right by Jinji Lake and features a sandpit, slides, seesaws, and trampolines, enough for kids of all ages to enjoy.
