As one of the best ecological gardens in Shanghai, the Shanghai Zoo is a great place to spend the day, and it will probably take as long as that to see it all. After half a century of development, this zoo has everything you'd expect from a modern day animal kingdom. It houses and exhibits over 6000 animals, from monkeys and giant pandas, to lions, Manchurian tigers, Yangtze alligators and snakes, and it's just a 15-minute drive from the Millennium Hongqiao Hotel Shanghai.
