Pengzu Park
Pengzu Park is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction.
Pengzu Park is located on Mapeng Mountain in the southern suburbs of Xuzhou City, covering an area of 520 acres. Originally an orchard, it was called the South Suburb Park during its initial planning in 1976
and was named the South Suburb Park at that time. As Xuzhou was historically known as the State of Great Peng, and Pengzu was a long-lived sage skilled in health cultivation and culinary arts, the park was renamed Peng Park during its expansion in 1984 to symbolize the long history and ancient civilization of Xuzhou. It was opened to the public in 1985.
Peng Park consists of five scenic areas and twenty-two attractions. The five scenic areas are the Animal Zone, Botanical Garden Viewing Area, Jingwu Lake Area, Amusement Area, and Forest Hill Area.
