Jiang Taigong's Fishing (with Crocodiles):
This is the most exciting thing in this Crocodile Park. You can do the crocodile fishing using some chicken. It is not the real fishing of course, just playing with the crocodiles. But you can see hundreds of crocodiles in the lake, attracted by your chicken. This can be an unforgetable experience for you. (cost 10 rmb for one time)
