Very well laid out and maintained theme park. Originally the movie set for the Three Kingdoms and the Water Margin (Shui Hu), TV series. As I'm not familiar with the Shui Hu story (Song Dynasty period), I enjoyed the content in the second half of the park less, but that did not take away from the objective quality of the installations. For the amount of extra money that had to be spent on additional activities inside the park and the concessions, the entry fee was a bit too much (RMB375 or ~CAD70 for two adults and a child), bit nevertheless, had a very pleasant experience. Depending on how many rides you'd want to do or how much detail you'd want to cover in various pavilions, about 4 hours can be quite sufficient. Some time can be saved by eliminating some walking through renting a bicycle carriage or an electric scooter that fits 3 people (RMB180 for 2 hours). On the day we visited, the crowds visibly picked up around 2-3pm, with parking lot nearly full. At the time we entered at 11:30 or so, there were no lineups and the parking lot was half empty.

This area was used to film two very popular Chinese television programs, 'Water Margin,' and 'Three Kingdoms.' Because of this, it feels like you're walking through a studio set, which is rather interesting. There are trams which take guests on short tours, but walking is easy, too. There are a few diversions, including some small rides for children, boat excursions on the lake, costumed photo opportunities, and a rather impressive live equestrian show. Limited food and beverage options inside the park, but a variety of vendors near the entrance gate.
