Opening remarks

When we were young, we always fantasized about going to faraway places to pursue our own freedom and dreams. Dreaming of having a pair of wings to soar in the sky, and also dreaming of freely exploring the vast and boundless blue ocean, swimming to the bottom of the sea and being accompanied by various marine creatures that one likes. Now, my childhood dream has really come true. I never thought I could have such close contact with various marine creatures in the ocean, nor did I ever think that one day I could sleep and play with them.

This colorful dream has come true for me today at Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park. Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park can be said to be a scenic spot closely related to marine culture, divided into five main theme areas: Mermaid Bay, Polar Town, Ice and Snow Kingdom, Underwater Wonderland, and Ocean Tribe; We have 16 star productions including "Whale Science Popularization Show", "Dolphin Love Song", "Walrus Journey", "White Whale Love", "Sea Beast Science Popularization Feeding Show", "Mermaid Fairy Tale", "Water Dance Fish Room", "Small Town Party", "Flying Man on the Water", "National Style Event", "Flying Fairy Little Dragon Girl", "Seven Cute Environmental Travel Notes", "Viking Legend", "Ocean Dream Float Parade", "Fantasy Sea Realm", and "Ocean Electronic Music Party".

There are six animal exhibition venues in the park, including Antarctic Penguin Pavilion, Sea Beast Exploration Pavilion, Iceberg Arctic Pavilion, Underwater World Pavilion, Volcano Shark Pavilion, and Coral Jellyfish Pavilion; There are over 30000 rare marine animals such as polar bears and emperor penguins inside; There are also six major amusement facilities and equipment, including volcano drifting, dolphin roller coaster, time and space cable car, deep-sea adventure, sky screen cinema, and ultra sensory 4D cinema; At the same time, the park also has the Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park Resort Hotel, providing one-stop dining, entertainment, and accommodation. Walking here, you can truly experience the exciting and diverse ocean dream journey!

Sea Beast Exploration Hall

Our first stop upon entering the park was the Sea Beast Exploration Hall in Polar Town. There were no performances here, and the variety and quantity of sea beasts exhibited ranked first in the country. Here, you can admire nearly a hundred species of sea animals, including the gluttonous sea lion, the honest manatee, the mischievous otter, and the lazy spotted seal.

The first floor of the Sea Beast Exploration Hall is a pure natural open-air bay, mainly for sea lions and seals. Here, you can see them lazily basking in the sun, excitedly grabbing food, and freely enjoying afternoon time. Sometimes, they are as cute as the seals in the emoticons.

Sea lions are known as the Lion King of the Sea due to their facial resemblance to lions and their roar resembling that of a lion. Its four legs resemble fins, making it very suitable for swimming in water. Seals are a collective term for the suborder Cypriniformes and the family Cyprinidae. The spotted seal has a round and spindle shaped body. Wearing short hair all over, with a blue gray back and a milky yellow abdomen with blue black spots. The head is nearly round, the eyes are large and round, there are no outer ear ears, the kiss is short and wide, the upper lip tendrils are long and thick, and hard, in the shape of a prayer bead.

Going down to the negative level, there are otters and manatees who live in glass tanks. We can observe the sea beasts swimming in the water from all angles. Experience the simple and authentic beauty of life bestowed by nature to your heart's content. In addition, the experience of feeding sea beasts for a fee of 60 yuan per time is also available for purchase. If you want to get a close-up view of them greedily competing for food, you can purchase and watch.

Arctic Iceberg Pavilion

Next, we arrived at the second exhibition hall, the Iceberg Arctic Pavilion, where dozens of Arctic "residents" reside, including sea lions, beluga whales, polar bears, Arctic wolves, Arctic foxes, bearded seals, and spotted seals.

Two polar bears were artificially bred in a natural state, namely the swimming loving "Pizu" and the quiet and gentle "girl"; Cute polar bear - Pizu, has also appeared in the movie "Midnight Sunshine", in which he is very good-looking!
But the strength of polar bears goes without saying, their simple and cute appearance is just a disguise. In order to adapt to the extremely harsh and cold natural environment, Shuangzhang seems to have practiced the 18 Dragon Subduing Palms, with infinite strength. Breaking through the solid ice surface is completely a small case.

And the petite and adorable Arctic princess, the Arctic fox; The ocean singer who can make people feel at first glance, the White Whale Ice Kingdom, hides an Arctic palace inside the Asperger Glacier. Indigenous Arctic residents such as White Whales, Polar Bears, Arctic Foxes, and Arctic Wolves all live here.

White Whale Love

What is the most beautiful performance in the park? That is undoubtedly the movie 'White Whale Love' in front of us. If you have watched the movie 'Moby Dick', you will understand the beauty and romance, struggle and dreams of this drama. The beluga whale is the white rich beauty of the whale family, a round headed ocean singer, and embodies the intelligence, kindness, and loyalty of animals to the fullest.

Through the huge glass, we see the perfect performance of a beautiful love song between the caretaker and the animals, listen to the melodious singing voice of the ocean canary, and the gentle beluga whale turn the cold ice and snow kingdom into a paradise for love confession.

The beluga whale is also a well-known marine creature, with its classic snow-white skin swimming back and forth in the ocean, providing us with a beautiful visual feast and a wonderful audio-visual experience.

Walrus Journey

The most entertaining performance in the park is undoubtedly the sea lion's travelogue, where the perfect combination of walruses and caretakers brought us a lively and interesting performance.

Under the orders of the caretaker, walruses can independently complete difficult performances such as ring, inversion, heading, diving, etc. During this period, they will also playfully play with the caretaker, making everyone burst into laughter.

If you want to have intimate contact with walruses, it is recommended to sit at the front and have the opportunity to become a lucky companion, possibly having intimate contact with them! During this period, you can sit up and touch the walrus up close, which is quite interesting. After completing the interaction, you can also receive small gifts.

Antarctic Penguin Pavilion

The Antarctic Penguin Pavilion in Polar Town features the world's first "Penguin Super Bowl" that showcases the lifestyle of Antarctic penguins in 360 degrees. Through the acrylic glass, we can see penguins swimming freely in the "Super Bowl" and even watch them frolicking in the water from land!

The venue is divided into two levels, connected to each other. There is a cylindrical tank on the upper level, which can look up and see penguins swimming flexibly in the water.

Most of the penguins in the lower layer stand still. Here live emperor penguins, also known as emperor penguins. Adult emperor penguins can reach heights of 100-130cm and weigh 20-45kg, making them the largest penguins in terms of body size! Ad é lie penguins, also known as Ad é lie penguins, have an adult body length of 46-75cm and a weight of 4-6kg. They are highly skilled swimmers! Find the other person by shouting, and build a love nest with small stones one by one. The Papua penguin is commonly known as the "gentleman penguin" due to its cute and silly appearance, resembling a gentleman. It has an adult body length of 75-90cm and weighs 5.5-6kg.

Orca Science Popularization Show

It is highly recommended to visit the Orca Theater with children in the park, as it is the only place in the country where you can see killer whales in the park. You can experience the very shocking 'Orca Science Popularization Show', where before the performance starts, some science popularization knowledge will appear on the big screen, which is very suitable for families to answer questions and increase intimacy.

It is said that the intelligence of killer whales is like that of children aged 6-10, and they are indeed the "academic overachievers" in the ocean. The moment they jumped up from underwater really moved me. I couldn't believe I could see this rare animal up close with my own eyes.

They will jump out of the water and make gestures under the guidance of the caregiver. When the caregiver picks up a long pole and is more than two meters above the water surface, they will jump out of the water and jump over. Sometimes beautiful sounds emanate from the water surface, and ethereal voices resound throughout the theater.

If you want to have an intimate encounter with killer whales up close, it is recommended that you ride in the front row on both sides of the exhibition hall and have the opportunity to kiss the baby killer whales through the glass on stage. You can also feel the mischievous baby killer whale using its big tail to shoot out huge waves, instantly splashing all over the first six rows and enjoying the special treatment of killer whales! The audience cheered loudly. (It is recommended to wear a raincoat, otherwise it will really turn into a drenched chicken. Raincoat: 10 yuan/piece)

Time Cable Car

This time and space cable car is definitely one of the favorite projects for couples. It looks like a time machine and is the only unobstructed water and land view cable car in the country. It is also the best viewing point for panoramic views of the park and the best viewing point for float parades.

One end of it is located in the Iceberg Arctic Pavilion in the southern area, and the other end is located in the Volcanic Shark Pavilion in the northern area, dividing Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park into two main parts: north and south. Between ice and fire, the fully enclosed space-time cable car travels 600 meters in the sky, accompanied by the cable car. The aerial view is particularly wide, and we can have a panoramic view of the entire amusement park. It is really worth experiencing.

Dolphin Sonata

The exciting large-scale interactive show "Dolphin Love Song" was staged in a dream setting at the Dolphin Theater, with the protagonist being our very intelligent and elf like little dolphin. The Dolphin Theater can accommodate up to 3000 visitors at the same time, showcasing the country's most technologically advanced interactive dolphin show with high-tech equipment such as sound, light, electricity, and water curtains, presenting us with an immersive sensory feast featuring dolphins as the main characters.

Here, you can enjoy up close the beautiful scene of the most intelligent elves among marine creatures interacting intimately with humans. Under the instructions of the caretaker, dolphins sometimes show off their intimate relationship with the caretaker; Dolphins with strong reflexes and motor cells sometimes leap out of the swimming pool, use their slender mouths to push a ball, and then fall into the water, charming and agile.

They can also easily play with hula hoops and make a dolphin sound casually, which is also effortless. Watching their seamless cooperation with the caretakers, I couldn't help but applaud and cheer for these little cuties.

The entire performance process will also include many interactive elements. If you want to have an intimate encounter with dolphins, it is recommended to sit in the front row to have a chance of intimate contact with dolphins. Dolphins will give you a kiss that you will never forget.

Volcano Shark Aquarium

Continuing along the venue guide, we arrived at the shark museum located inside the "volcano", which gave people a sense of excitement from the outside. The most unique display tank in the Volcano Shark Aquarium is the world's first seven degree tilted design, which is the most eye-catching. Standing in front of the giant glass tank, placing the Buddha on the seabed, this unique design will make people feel more immersed, as if we are in the deep blue ocean. Occasionally, there are large whale sharks swimming by, and the visual impact is self-evident.

As soon as the performance time arrived, mermaids with fish tails appeared in the deep sea, swimming with various marine creatures. Watching them in the dark exhibition hall was quite shocking. I saw the mermaid sister dancing freely in the water without wearing an oxygen cylinder, just like a mermaid living in the sea, swimming freely;

Sometimes I do some difficult dance movements, delicate and graceful movements, swimming in the deep sea, shuttling among schools of fish, spinning and jumping in various ways, and sometimes spitting out a long string of bubbles to the audience. It's magnificent, as if I'm in the underwater world of a fairy tale, truly breathtaking!

Dolphin roller coaster

If you think just looking at marine animals in the ocean park is a big mistake! Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park, which has more than ten amusement facilities, will definitely make you scream "summer"! The ingenious masterpiece from the top international roller coaster equipment manufacturer, Intemin: Dolphin Roller Coaster, an indispensable outdoor event. At the moment of starting the roller coaster, whether it is roaring or shouting, it cannot stop the changes of time and space.

On the journey, you will transform into a dolphin, fly to the sky and escape to the ground, rush to the bottom of the sea, and pierce through the belly of a great white shark. 75 seconds stretched infinitely due to the extension of time and space, breaking through the sound barrier, accelerating a few times, flipping a few times, and crossing a few times all made screams spread under the sky!

Besides going to heaven, you can also choose to play volcano drifting. This is meticulously crafted by the world's largest water equipment manufacturer - White Water from Canada, allowing you to experience a thrilling ride through volcanic rapids. A drifting project that integrates multiple water entertainment elements, combining various water slides and magic bowls, unleashing excitement and joy simultaneously, and offering a variety of exciting experiences throughout the journey.

A rapid exploration journey of 1 kilometer, escaping from a lava volcano in 10 minutes, with a huge drop of 21 meters. I saw waves rolling and lava pouring down, which really made me feel the tension and excitement of high-speed spinning! Spinning, jumping, and the magic of love spinning in circles along the way not only stimulates but also tests your balance! Let us forget all our troubles amidst the screams, drift with us, and enter the cool world of water to ease the summer heat; Let's revel to the fullest.

Jellyfish Coral Pavilion

As I stepped into it and walked through the dimly lit corridor, I met colorful large coral towers and thousands of jellyfish swaying in the lights, which was truly astonishing. Coral and jellyfish are the most dreamlike creatures in the ocean world. Although the exhibition hall is dimly lit, we can see a magnificent visual symphony of coral. This is one of the top single coral jellyfish themed exhibition halls in China, with a wide variety of coral species including feather mushroom coral, mushroom sunflower coral, and more. The colorful and magnificent scenes make people unable to resist pressing the shutter button, wanting to capture their moving moments.

And as we walked inside, we arrived at the Jellyfish Theater, where the rainbow like light and shadow changed back and forth, reflecting the beautiful Jellyfish Theater through the glass mirror. Jellyfish are originally transparent, but under the colorful light, they constantly change colors and sway freely in the water, becoming the most dreamy ocean elves.

The dreamy scenes here are really suitable for shooting. The colorful lights are reflected in front of the jellyfish glass jar, and the shutter keeps getting stuck. Standing in front of the glass jar, every picture is beautiful. A free and unrestrained warm scene was transformed inside the exhibition jar. The Coral Jellyfish Pavilion does not let every inch of accompanying time be wasted, it is a dream collection dedicated to family.

Wet and refreshing party

After enjoying the magnificent Coral Jellyfish Pavilion, we went outdoors to experience a unique and refreshing wet party. In the scorching summer, the scorching sun is like fire, except for cool water that can extinguish the scorching heat. This is definitely a favorite recreational activity for children. In addition to enjoying various playful dance performances, you can also participate in various interactive games to win small prizes.

The most exciting thing for children is to touch the strange bubbles that emit a strange fragrance and play a cool and refreshing water gun battle. Finally, follow the music and immerse yourself in the party. When you decide to step into this party, be prepared to get wet. If you don't want to get wet, remember to put on your raincoat in advance and join the party. This cool and exciting summer water carnival will definitely make you scream in shock.

Kids Corner

In addition to enjoying various underwater creatures and performances in the park, there is also a children's play area for children outdoors. This area is also very suitable for families to experience various fun filled amusement projects, such as the ocean horse, Happy Flying Fish, and Pelican Adventure, which are all suitable for children to play.

When you sit on a spinning ocean horse and a happy flying fish, imagine yourself walking with penguin babies and swimming in the sea with dolphins and beluga whales. This is like another ocean world, filled with laughter and joy, spending your dream ocean journey with your family.

Underwater World Pavilion

It has to be said that the internet famous spot that must be checked in when coming to Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park is undoubtedly the Underwater World Pavilion, which has a unique dual channel underwater tunnel in China. Entering the deep-sea voyage, through the underwater tunnel in front of you, you can enjoy colorful swimming fish such as stingrays, pearl gentian groupers, and colorful coral reef fish swimming freely.

This is a future world full of childlike innocence and dreamy colors. It is essential to take portrait photos here, as you can definitely capture a different underwater dreamlike scene. Different perspectives allow you to enjoy the tranquility and magnificence of the underwater world.

Water Dance Fish Room

If there is a high difficulty free diving performance that cannot be missed, it must be "Water Dance Fish Room" that surprises the underwater world. Two underwater flower fairies with graceful figures, light and delicate, dance gracefully in the water, like souls wandering in the water, interpreting legendary stories through the deep blue sea.

With the music, a large group of fish surrounded their dancing bodies. The moment they swam out of the fish pile, they seemed like blooming underwater flower buds, beautiful and moving. The dance dances like beautiful butterflies, twisting like graceful willow branches, so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated. The fusion with the sea and the dance with schools of fish make them emit a lively fairy aura, which is a combination of dreams and reality. This is a dialogue between freely rotating body posture and the vast ocean.

Penguin Diner

If you get tired or hungry from playing in the park, you don't have to worry about not having a restaurant to eat and rest. There are five themed restaurants in the park, including Penguin Restaurant, Whale Shark Restaurant, Time Restaurant, Shata Restaurant, and Aurora Restaurant, as well as a caf é, water bar, dessert shop, and other leisurely snacks to meet the diverse dining needs of tourists; We chose to dine at Penguin Restaurant this time, and as soon as we walked in, we could feel the strong penguin themed atmosphere. Here, we offer a variety of set meal options, with moderate prices and suitable flavors.

There is also a recommended restaurant: Whale Shark Restaurant. The environment of the restaurant is like being in the ocean. While you taste delicious food, you can also enjoy thousands of wonderful and diverse marine creatures, swimming in front of your eyes. Under the touch of your tongue and taste buds, there is such an exciting visual feast. Choosing to dine at Whale Shark Restaurant will be a dual sensory experience, with Western cuisine priced at around 300 yuan per person. It is suitable for dressing beautifully and the environment is perfect for taking photos.

Surrounding cultural and creative industries

If you want to purchase cultural and creative products/peripheral gifts, then the nine characteristic themed stores in the park can definitely meet your needs. Shops with unique design styles in different regions and venues, accompanied by a wide range of themed products, make walking into the store feel like being transported to a beautiful treasure shop. The cultural and creative products in front of you are truly irresistible.

Especially Ocean World, Mermaid Treasure, Penguin Shop, etc. are all worth a visit. It has to be said that this is also the favorite place for children. Watching the cute dolls neatly arranged, it feels like my "girlish heart" is about to sprout.

With the help of cultural and creative industries, surrounding cultural and creative products have become an important carrier for tourism promotion, because every cultural and creative product contains culture and stories about the park. It's as if every spectacular performance we've watched has been frozen in time, leaving a lasting impression.

ending

In our childhood stories, our dreams and surging energy are written, with the grandeur of vast misty waves. In the books of young people, we are painted with thousands of hectares of blue waves, making us all have a sense of anticipation; Looking forward to the day when childhood dreams come true, looking forward to dolphins leaping out of the water, looking forward to the dreamy mermaid deep-sea water show, looking forward to killer whales rolling up huge waves and shouting tsunamis.

Perhaps, what moves us in every city and every journey is not the hustle and bustle, but the resonance with you when you approach unintentionally. Only after seeing storms and rainbows do I know my own way of traveling.

Perhaps, different cities, different places; Different delicacies, different lives, pursued along the way, beautiful scenery will not be missed, and some dreams will not be forgotten. Life is like a journey backwards, time does not disappoint all the hearts in the world.
