Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about OCT East Zoo

Intour Park Hotel at Eastern Overseas Chinese Town is ideal for families, located just steps from the zoo with eco-themed rooms and kid-friendly facilities. Enjoy panoramic views of lush greenery from your room and take advantage of the free shuttle service to the zoo entrance. The resort features a children's playground, hot springs, and walking trails—perfect for unwinding after animal encounters. It’s one of Shenzhen’s rare nature-integrated retreats combining adventure and relaxation.

Take Shenzhen Metro Line 8 to "Xiaomeisha Station," then transfer to the on-site shuttle bus (about 10 minutes) for direct access to the zoo. The total journey takes around 45 minutes with no complex transfers. The shuttle runs all day, costs only RMB 10, and is accessible via the "Shenzhen Metro" app or WeChat Pay QR code. This route is highly efficient for out-of-town visitors, especially when combining it with nearby resort activities, offering both convenience and comfort.

The zoo offers animal feeding zones (e.g., giraffes, alpacas), family-friendly educational workshops, and nighttime animal observation tours. Don’t miss the Conservation Workshops, led by veterinarians teaching feeding techniques and letting guests prepare animal feed. There’s also an immersive eco-theater with live performances telling animals’ survival stories—engaging and educational. All activities require advance HopeGoo via the official mini-program to secure spots. These experiences deepen visitor engagement and promote environmental awareness, making them must-try for families and kids.

Yes! Visit the Flower Sea Plaza and Forest Trail—both top photo locations. The Flower Sea Plaza blooms with seasonal flowers: cherry blossoms and tulips in spring, chrysanthemums and cosmos in autumn, perfect for forest-themed portraits. The Forest Trail winds through shaded woods, featuring wooden pavilions and mirror installations that create dreamy reflections. Also popular are the rainbow archway and cute animal sculptures, ideal for family photos. Visit early morning or late afternoon for soft lighting and higher-quality shots.

Absolutely! The zoo is designed with child-friendly features, including dedicated play areas, safe walkways, and multiple rest zones. All animal exhibits have interactive touch walls and digital guides to help kids understand animal behaviors. Daily animal shows (e.g., seal performances) are free and timed for convenience. Parents can relax while children explore freely, and the surrounding resort offers family packages and midday nap areas. The entire experience is stress-free and ideal for a memorable one-day outing in Shenzhen.

The zoo is open daily from 09:00 to 17:30, with last entry at 16:30. Regular tickets cost RMB 120, plus RMB 20 on weekends and holidays. Children under 1.2m and seniors over 65 receive half-price admission. Online pre-HopeGoo is recommended via the Eastern Overseas Chinese Town official mini-program, which saves queue time and provides digital tickets and a map. HopeGoo in advance is strongly advised, especially during peak seasons, to guarantee entry.

InterContinental Shenzhen Dameisha Resort

This resort truly exceeded my expectations. The room was immaculate, and the view of the endless ocean from the balcony was absolutely breathtaking—especially at sunrise, when the sky painted in soft hues over the water. Having a private beach right on-site made it so convenient to enjoy the sea without having to travel far. There were plenty of water activities available, perfect for both adults and kids. The on-site restaurants offered high-quality food at very reasonable prices, making dining enjoyable without breaking the bank. Everything—from service to amenities—was top-notch. I felt completely relaxed throughout my stay and would definitely return. A perfect getaway that delivers on every front.

Hyatt Regency Shenzhen Yantian

Staying at Hyatt Regency Shenzhen Yantian for the second time was just as delightful as the first. The mountain-view room offers breathtaking scenery—serene, peaceful, and perfectly positioned between nature and convenience. Compared to areas like Dapuwan, this location is far more accessible with better transport links and a vibrant local vibe. There are plenty of great restaurants nearby, and it only takes about 20 minutes by car to reach the famous seafood street—perfect for fresh, on-the-spot dining. My favorite part? The breakfast bread counter. Going early lets you enjoy your morning meal with a view of the sea—pure bliss. Parking is slightly inconvenient if you drive: you need to take two elevators from the basement level to reach your room, but there’s a convenient parcel locker on the ground floor for deliveries. Room quality is excellent overall, though the nightlight in the bathroom is a bit too bright—it floods the entire space when you get up at night, which can be jarring. A softer setting would make it much more comfortable. Still, every other detail hits the mark. Great value, great stay, highly recommend.
