ZooCaching Traditional Cache

Shanghai Zoo is located in the west of shanghai in the Gubei/Hongqiao area. You can get there by metro line 10, Longbai Xincun station.

By taxi you can get there asking the driver to drop you at the cross of Hongqiao road and Hongjing road

You are looking for a small lock and lock container

It is paved road all the way until few meters from the cache where it becomes flat grass.

According to the wikipedia article...well, forget about the wikipedia article, the objectivity of it is discussed anyway. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai_Zoo)

It’s a zoo. Living in a city like this, that’s probably what’s the closest thing of “the Wide” we can get. The kids loves it, so we go often. We have a picnic in the park and then the kids goes to see the zebras and the dads... are playing on the “bumpy boats”... and hiding containers.

Fellow cacher do not fear!

You shall not have to fight wide beasts, cross dangerous hurdles...we are here on urban caching land. Instead, you may have to dodge hordes of muggles (A mandatory visit for all shanghai youth at one time or another.), and disburse the 40 rmb entry fees. (for the small price of a geocache, you get a free zoo entry ticket! )

The park is really big and looks much more natural than most parks in Shanghai that are heavily landscaped.

The cache itself is easy, but off the path and reception is spotty with the trees cover. The hint picture should help find GZ.

• The cache is big enough for swaps.
• Please replace the cache at the same spot, with enough camouflage
• post your log with a picture of your free zoo ticket (if you can...)
