This little town is truly the ultimate kid-friendly spot

This little town is truly the ultimate kid-friendly spot‼️ Spent a whole day playing with my son and didn’t want to leave, do you get it? 🍫 Parents, listen up! Found a magical place to take your kids — Gofeson Chocolate Town! 📍Location: Gofeson Chocolate Town, Jiashan, Jiaxing, Zhejiang ⏰Opening hours: 9:00 AM - 9:00 PM (Recommended to arrive before 10 to avoid peak crowds 🚶‍♀️→🚶) 🎫Tickets: Adults 80 RMB (includes mini train ride!) / Kids under 1.2 meters free (super affordable 💰!) 🚗 Transportation guide for families with kids: ✔️Driving is most convenient: 1.5 hours direct from Shanghai/Hangzhou, parking 10 RMB/day, plenty of spaces 🅿️ ✔️High-speed rail: 15-minute taxi from Jiashan South Station, about 30 RMB, kids can nap in the car 😴 ✔️Lazy option: direct tour bus including ticket + round-trip fare, 158 RMB/person, no transfers for kids, super convenient 😌 🌟 Full-day kid-friendly activities list: 1. Chocolate Factory Transparent Corridor 👀 156 meters of fully transparent production line! Kids can see how cocoa beans turn into chocolate. When the machines rumble, their eyes get huge 👀~ Staff give tasting spoons, the hot chocolate liquor is so sweet it makes you squint, kids keep eating and saying “More, more!” 😋 2. DIY Chocolate Workshop 👩🍳 For 98 RMB, kids can make their own chocolate! Cute molds like bears 🐻, cars 🚗, stars ⭐, and they get serious squeezing chocolate sauce with gloves on. After making, they can even engrave their name. At home, kids proudly show dad “I made this!” (Mom sneaks a taste, the sea salt flavor is insanely good 👍) 3. Non-powered Parent-Child Playground 🎡 Free! Free! Free! Huge climbing net, rainbow slide 🌈, small swings, plus interactive water-spraying devices 💦. Kids run wild like little ponies 🐎 chasing others, while moms can relax under the shade and play on their phones 📱, finally a break~ 4. Flower Sea Mini Train 🚂 A must-ride for kids multiple times! The vintage mini train slowly passes through a field of verbena flowers, spraying sweet chocolate fragrance 💨. When the breeze blows, the purple flower waves are super soothing~ Cartoon characters wave midway 🤖, kids wave back crazily through the window, giggling nonstop 😄 5. Cocoa Forest Greenhouse 🌴 See cocoa pods growing on trees inside a glasshouse! Staff cut one open on the spot for kids to see, the orange-red pulp is sweet and tangy. Kids lick their fingers then play with cocoa beans (don’t worry, staff provide wet wipes 🧻). Learning while playing, moms quietly think “This is totally worth it” 🥳 6. Chocolate Museum Interactive Zone 🎮 Interactive projections designed for kids! Stepping on chocolate patterns on the floor changes their colors ✨, and they can “catch” virtual cocoa beans falling down. Kids don’t want to leave~ When the 3D chocolate rain effect appears, kids jump excitedly to catch it, laughter fills the whole hall hahaha 😆 📸 Photo spots for kids: ▫️Rainbow Castle stairs: Let kids run up and down to capture dynamic shots, skirts fluttering so lively 👗 ▫️Giant chocolate sculpture: Hold the chocolate stick bought in the shop for photos, perfect for foodies 🍫 ▫️Mini train flower sea section: Take side shots of kids from the train window with purple flower sea background, guaranteed to explode your social media likes 💥 ▫️Night light show: Starts at 7:30 PM, stand with kids in front of the castle, warm light on faces feels super cozy 🌟 🍴 Food recommendations that kids will happily eat: ✅ Kids’ set meal: Bear-shaped rice + cocoa juice + cherry tomatoes, so cute kids don’t want to eat it, 38 RMB/set, great value 👍 ✅ Chocolate marshmallow: 10 RMB/skewer, marshmallow wrapped in chocolate crisp, kids nibble nicely 😋 ✅ Freshly baked chocolate cookies: The aroma attracts kids, 20 RMB/box, they eat and play without fuss 🍪 ✅ The restaurant has high chairs! Has baby utensils! And hot water (moms with formula know this feeling 😭) 💡 Warm tips for bringing kids: 1. Definitely bring a change of clothes! The non-powered playground has water sprays, kids get soaked playing wildly, changing keeps them warm 👕 2. Wear non-slip shoes! Climbing nets can rub feet, sandals slip off easily, sneakers are safest 👟 3. Bring a foldable stroller! The park is big, kids can nap when tired, and you can carry chocolates and toys 🛒 4. DIY workshop recommended around 10 AM! Fewer people, no waiting, kids have the most energy and fun then ⏰ 5. Visit the non-powered playground at dusk! Too hot in the afternoon, sunset is cooler, kids can play an extra hour 🌇 🏡 Recommended accommodations for families: ▶️ Stargazing tents inside the park: 399 RMB/night, with private bathroom, watch stars at night, kids count stars quietly in the tent 🌌 ▶️ Yunlan Bay Hot Spring Hotel: 10 minutes by car, includes breakfast for two + hot spring tickets, soak in hot springs after playing, sleep soundly at night ♨️ For real! This place truly offers a relaxed experience with kids, no crying or tantrums, plus learning opportunities. At home, kids keep saying “Let’s go to Chocolate Town again”~ Sisters with kids, hurry up and go, it’s definitely the ultimate hands-free kid-friendly spot! Let’s go 🚀
