Natural Wild-insect Kingdom: Unite Education and Fun!

In a day and age when tremendous developments in technology has taken up the time of younger generations, attractions such as zoos and natural museums play an important role in the development of a child’s intelligence whilst increasing their sensitivity and awareness regarding their surroundings. The Natural Wild Insect Kingdom in Shanghai, China, is one such child friendly attraction that will undoubtedly provide you and your family with an entertaining means of achieving all these goals.

Known as the Shanghai Natural Wild Insect Kingdom, this attraction is a first for China as it is the first live bug museum of the country and is home to over three hundred inhabitants of the wild. Begin your journey of discovery as you cross over the koi pond filled with fish, turtles and even a live crocodile. Purchase fish food for a nominal price and allow your children to enjoy themselves as they feed the fish. Next enjoy one of the smallest species of monkeys in the world: the pygmy marmosets and if you are particularly daring, check out the snakes at the museum. Surely subsequent to such a terrifying display, one would enjoy the butterfly collection of the museum immensely and allow themselves to be mesmerised as these butterflies create a myriad of colours as they flit here and there.

After seeing the comprehensive bug collection of the museum, visit the petting zoo for a refreshing change of scenery and allow the children to meet and feed adorable little hamsters, rabbits, squirrels and even a goat that is capable of performing various tricks which are sure to thrill the little ones! If you have a pond back home, kids are even allowed to ‘fish’ and catch their very own pet goldfish that can be taken back home for a nominal price. On the other hand, if you are staying at a Shanghai city hotel on holiday, there are a multitude of educational activities the museum arranges for children. Even if they cannot take home their very own pets, this will allow them to develop a greater appreciation and sensitivity towards the animal kingdom.

When staying at a Shanghai hotel, this bug museum is simply one of the many attractions in the city. Opting to stay at a hotel the calibre of Millennium Honggiao Hotel Shanghai will allow you the luxury of being conveniently located to other cultural and historical attractions of the city as well.
