    Amazing, I would even say untouched nature. It is a park with lots of ups and downs so one gets pretty tired there. But it is also a beautiful places for taking photos. You can see there also some temples, people come there to pray, hand wish ribbons, etc. It is also a very calm places, if you stay for longer time, you may come to relax to this place. Entrance is free, just for those who drive will be 5 yuan parking, which is for the whole day. See more..

    Despite it was really hot, we enjoyed it a lot. It was around 20km drive from to hotel to the tourist center. We bought tickets to the boat which took us to 3 different islands. One of the islands had a small "zoo" or a place with protected animals. Unfortunately this place is kind of ruined, like ppl do not take care of it anymore and many species that are advertised are not there anymore. This island was a bit dissapointing. Another island was more cultural with a beautiful pagoda and according to some information people can go to get married there and have a wedding ceremony. On the last island you can find a hotel and it is linked with some fun activities like fishing, riding a water scooter, etc. The whole trip was tiring tho, took around 3-3,5 hours including time on the boat and visiting the islands but it was worth it. Just I would recommend to visit this place maybe not on hot days and it may not be pleasant to some people. See more..

    Typical Chinese building in a modern style. That is Ankang museum. Unfortunately when I was passing by, it was already after the opening hours. So at least took some photos of the building that is really beautiful. Located just down the street from the An Lan Building. See more..
  6. 4.0 AnLan Pagoda (1 review)
    - Beautiful architecture and a park around. Pity it was closed due to redecorating
    Spent 1-2 hours Points of Interest & Landmarks
    AnLan Pagoda image
    We lived in a hotel right across from this pagoda. It took less than 10 minutes to walk up there. It is another beautiful building of Chinese architecture. It is just pity it was closed to public in this time due to redecorating. Anyways, it is also very beautiful to see from the outside. It has beautiful park with some animals (met a snake :-D ) If you just walk outside to take photos, it may take you appx. 20-30 minutes and you are done. If you went indoors, I would guess one more hour because from the the top of the pagoda must be a beautiful scenery. If you walk down the stairs in the park, you get to the riverside where is a running track, you may take some panorama photos. Some people were actually playing in the river. See more..

    - 在岛上应该就是那个鸟语林
    Wednesday: 9:00 AM - 4:30 PM Zoos
    园区不大,里面的鸟的种类还挺多,但数量不多,都是放养。上面还有笼养的一些观赏鸟类。岛上绿树成荫,湖光山色,非常舒服。 See more..
