Nanjing Happy Valley
南京欢乐谷
A large theme park built in Nanjing by Overseas Chinese Town (OCT), with a full range of roller coasters and immersive shows, the top choice for family and thrill-seeking weekend trips.
Nanjing Happy Valley lies in the northern part of Qixia District, on the south bank of the Yangtze River. Invested in by OCT Group, the park plans several themed zones, with multiple large roller coasters, drop towers, water rides, and indoor interactive experience halls. At night there are light shows and fireworks (subject to official schedules). The park is next to Nanjing Maya Beach Water Park, so the two can be combined in summer. Admission is about 200–300 yuan, and night tickets and discounts are often available. Operating hours are roughly 10:00–18:00, extended on holidays. It is about 25 km from Xinjiekou, reachable by Metro plus bus or taxi. It is recommended to enter in the morning and set aside a full day.
