In Ningbo, there's a hidden village perfect for family fun with kids!

Our Ningbo friends tipped us off about this unique Daren Village – super fun and ideal for family trips with children! Plus, there's great news: ticket purchases can offset highway tolls (capped at 100 yuan), making it an absolute steal for travelers from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai! The village truly has many highlights that keep kids engaged for hours! 1⃣️ Amusement Facilities While not as large as theme parks, the rides here are more than enough for both kids and adults! 2⃣️ Water Park A must-visit for kids! With June's rising temperatures, it's the perfect spot to cool off – what could be more joyful than water play? 3⃣️ Hundreds of Performances The village offers many edutainment activities. We caught the lively "Shennong" performance, which kids adored! 4⃣️ Nighttime Lantern Displays The dazzling lantern displays at night turned out to be the most spectacular – vibrant and mesmerizing. We could’ve wandered around them all evening! 5⃣️ Animal Zone Though not as extensive as zoos, the animal encounters here perfectly satisfy children's curiosity. The Daren Village Hotel 🏨 is spacious and comfortable. Drive over in the morning, stay overnight, then explore Ningbo city the next day – hit iconic spots like Tianyi Pavilion, Moon Lake, and Nantang Old Street for a perfect weekend getaway!
