What travelers say about Nantong
阎魔爱AKINovember 7, 2026
5.0
In terms of value for money, there are many animals, and feeding them is quite fun. However, the rental car is really not cost-effective and is very expensive! Even the sightseeing bus costs 30 yuan per person. Normally, you might charge 30 yuan for children over 1.4 meters tall, but it's unnecessary to charge a child as short as 1.2 meters the same size as the adult. You can bring your own fruits and vegetables to feed the animals, but they also sell them inside, though they are very expensive. You can feed the wild animals, though. The zoo is huge, so I don't recommend walking! It's a bit of a shame that we didn't see the big circus. There's a children's playground to help kids burn off energy after playing, which is quite thoughtful.
Nantong Forest Safari Park

5.0
Known as the "First Mountain of the Yangtze River and the Sea," it is only 107 meters above sea level, making the climb easy. The biggest highlight is the panoramic view of the Yangtze River from the Zhiyun Pagoda, where the river and sky blend seamlessly. Guangjiao Temple is the sacred site of the Bodhisattva Mahasthamaprapta, with thriving incense offerings and a strong ancient temple atmosphere. It also contains historical sites such as the tomb of Luo Binwang, making it rich in cultural heritage.
Nantong Langshan Scenic Spot

There were still quite a few people queuing. This must be Nantong's signature night cruise attraction. Our boat had its entire ceiling opened when it started moving, so there were no obstructions and the effect was fantastic. There were various performances and light shows along the riverbanks, allowing us to learn about Nantong's history – it was truly wonderful. When we reached a particular performance, the boat would stop there, allowing us to quietly enjoy the view. Thumbs up!

Very good wild forest zoo. A large garden with captive and free-range areas. The service staff is on site and responsible. There are many species of animals, rare and precious, it is worth a visit.
Nantong Sendi Tourist Resort

5.0
1. Amusement Rides: Primarily geared towards younger children, around seven or eight years old.
2. Ice Skating: Quite fun.
3. Snow World: It's extremely cold inside; definitely worth reminding everyone to wear a hat to cover their face. The snow suits are actually open-fronted; you need to adjust the pants yourself, and mesh shoes are not allowed.
4. VR Glasses: The VR glasses inside are the most interesting, but they really make you nauseous.
5. Food and Beverages: The food is definitely too expensive.

I went on August 2nd. There were no Dragon Ball activities, but the Dragon King would appear on the beach around 10 am. It was too hot, so I could only watch them head to the beach and didn't get to experience it myself.
The photos were taken in May of this year; the weather was perfect, and the haul was good. If you're bringing children, I recommend wearing beachcombing gear.
Golden Beach

Bihai Yinsha is an artificial beach with fine sand. The scenery on sunny days is very soothing and perfect for taking photos. The infinity pool is under construction, so I don't know its current status. It's suitable for family leisure, and playing in the sand and water is very relaxing. The downsides are that it's an artificial sea area, not the natural ocean; and it's located in the suburbs of Qidong, so transportation is inconvenient and requires a car. If you're staying at the Evergrande Venice Hotel, you might want to check it out.

Siyuan Garden Review (200 words)
Siyuan Garden is a long-established 4A-level scenic spot in Nantong and the final resting place of Zhang Jian, the last imperial scholar of the Qing Dynasty. It boasts a rich cultural heritage. Ancient trees tower within the garden, and over a hundred species of rare greenery, including Chinese fir and yew, create a lush and shady environment, earning it the reputation of a natural oxygen bar in the city, offering a cool and comfortable stroll. The garden offers beautiful scenery in all four seasons: tulips and cherry blossoms bloom in spring, and the thousand-year-old ginkgo leaves turn golden in autumn, with pavilions and lakes reflecting each other, creating a strong sense of Jiangnan garden atmosphere. The park has comprehensive facilities, including the solemn Zhang Jian Tomb and Zhang Family Ancestral Hall for historical study and reflection, as well as a fish pond, a petting zoo, and a grass-skiing area suitable for family activities. The scenic area is free to the public, easily accessible, and offers opportunities for hiking, picnicking, and learning about Nantong's modern industrial history. It's a great place for relaxation, cultural exploration, and more.

Nantong Museum, located in Nantong City, is one of China's earliest public museums. The building is an old-style Western-style structure, and the interior is dimly lit. The exhibition halls are divided into natural history and cultural history sections. One room is dedicated to displaying Zhang Jian's personal belongings, including his clothes and stationery. The outdoor exhibition area features old-fashioned looms and waterwheels, quietly nestled in the shade of trees. There aren't many visitors; you can hear footsteps in the corridors and the sounds of cars on the distant road. A complete visit takes about two hours.

4.0
There weren't many visitors; in just over two hours, I saw fewer than 100 tourists. The only performance was a lantern parade; the performance areas were empty, just lights and props, no performances, no tourists. Perhaps there will be more performances during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays when there are more people!
