Last Sunday, I visited the Beijing Zoo with my parents. We set off very early at 7:30am, and we didn’t arrive until 9:45 am because the heavy traffic. We bought our tickets and went inside, My most favorite part was the Panda Garden, but the first animal I saw was a lion, It looked grand and royally, Then we saw some tigers. There had a bird show at 10:30 am. After the show, we go to see the monkeys. Some monkeys were jumping from one branch of the tree to another. Other were eating bananas. We had a quick lunch at one of the zoo restaurant. The food there was neither good or bad, but the price was acceptable. We paid 65 yuan on our lunch. We spent six hours in the zoo and then went home.
