Ocean Park Tower

Rating: ****
 
Suitable for all.  It's not an exciting game.  It can bring you up the tower slowly and conveniently, with the best view of the southern side of Hong Kong.
 


Rainforest

Rating: ***
 
It is next to the game zone.  There are many animals from the rain forest, including birds, mammels, insects and fish.

There is a river game inside, but not that exciting

Some disgusting insects

Trill Mountain

Rating: ****

Next to the North Pole and South Pole, the Trill Mountain contains the most exciting games in the Ocean Park.  It is also new, open in 2012.  If you are not ready, please do not try them!

The best Roller Coaster in Ocean park (there are 3).  Just like flying in the sky
The rotation speed is VERY fast!  You cannot sit properly there!



The most exciting game.  Be prepared if you wanna try

Polar adventure

Rating ****

It should be the first place you get around after the cable car journey.  This is a new attraction open in mid-2012.  It was divided into two parts:  the North Pole and South Pole.  Animals from the different ends of the world are living inside.

Pacific Pier

Rating: ***
 
It is the classic place of Ocean Park.  It is there since Ocean Park opened.  The most attractive is the seaview on the way to this location.

Whiskers Harbour

Rating: ***

It's a place for kids between 3-12.  If you have kids, it's a pretty good place to enjoy.

Old Hong Kong Street

Rating: ****

You will get pass Old Hong Kong Street before you can go to Cable Car.  They are the scenes of Hong Kong during 1950s - 1970s.  Also, you will hear some Old Hong Kong songs.

The entry 

 The bus is real.  It was in service during 1970s
 
 Old style shop, selling real stuff

The tram is real as well.  It's still in use in Hong Kong!

Ocean Express

Rating: *

Another means to go to the other side (The Summit).  Use cable car if possible.  This is merely a means of transportation and nothing interesting inside.

Panda

Rating: *****

There are two locations having pandas inside:  The Hong Kong Jockey Club Sichuan Treasures and Amazing Asian Animals.  The latter is better, as the pandas there are more hardworking and always show up to visitors!

The Hong Kong Jockey Club Sichuan Treasures.  The pandas here do not always show up.

Location of Amazing Asian Animals

and inside Amazing Asian Animals, the pandas are more 'hardworking', and also there are other attractions.
 



Cable Car

Rating: *****

The best of the best!  It's the vehicle to travel between the two parts of Ocean Park, but you can enjoy the best seaview of Hong Kong!

The Grand Aquarium

Rating: *****

The legend of Ocean Park.  It's comparable to those famous aquarium of the world, such as Okinawa or Monterey Bay.

You can see it just after entering Ocean Park!

You will have around 15 - 30 minutes journey, watching different species in the sea.





and finally....

 Explore those fish yourself inside!
