Take a reading week to visit the Biodome and get off the Green Line train at Viau Station. It was pretty crowded, probably because I went on a Sunday, and there were a lot of kids.
Many small partners think that many animals hibernate in winter, can not see what animals, in fact, many animals have been moved indoors, so that not only to provide animals with a living environment, but also to provide tourists with a super close observation of animals, so that you can enjoy this wonderful journey in the cold season.
There are four ecological pavilions in it, namely rainforest, forest, bay and polar. The variety of small animals is not particularly large, after all, it is not a zoo. But there were two otters fighting, two 猞 cats chasing, and Kabibala. It's really interesting. It is officially said that the visit time is 90 minutes, but in fact, it comes out in about 40 minutes, and it feels like an indoor place for rainy days to go around.
🎫 one or two days in advance on the official website to buy tickets, according to the number of people, more than 40 US dollars per person, off-peak season prices are different! Car entry is free.
Regardless of whether you buy your tickets online or at the ticket office, you will need to go to the ticket office to exchange a paper ticket plus a hot drink voucher, which can be used to get a free hot chocolate or hot coffee at Le Marche restaurant, even for babies under 2 years old.
Although some may be indoors, there are still many animals to enjoy during the winter months. You can see animals that are active in winter, such as snow leopards, Siberian tigers, zebras, etc. If you're lucky, you can also see hibernating bats hanging upside down from branches, row by row, which is especially magical. There are also non-Arctic animals, such as elephants, lions, rhinos, and giraffes. In the indoor venues of these zoos, you can enjoy the warm atmosphere while learning about these animals.
There were four capibala (capybara) in the rainforest when I visited, and they were so cute. Saw two cute and clever otters in the forest, because they ran too fast to capture a clear picture haha. Chubby penguins in the polar regions are adorable! It takes about an hour and a half for all the animals to get a closer look. I think the price is more reasonable, adult ticket 23.25 US dollars, but student tickets as long as 17 US dollars, remember to bring a good student ID to check! It seems to be cheaper for local residents to buy it.
There are also accommodation in the park, you can watch the wolves in the house through the glass, the price is between $559-$859, 4 to 6 people live.
At the designated time, there will be some activities in each area, such as feeding the penguins and explaining how the beavers build DAMS. In the APP Space for life, you can see the advance notice and set a reminder. We listened to the beaver. The docents asked if they needed to speak in English, and then a little boy coolly said, "We're in Quebec, we should speak French." I'm just gonna have to guess.
The most interactive animals are giraffes and camels, and the park only sells lettuce, $3.50 a head, cash only. It is recommended to prepare your own celery, because camels love to eat it.
Remember to buy carrots outside the supermarket, the long ones, not the small ones, they are not easy to feed, you may drool on all hands. The outside is less than $2 a pack, and the inside is $4, and when we were buying ice cream and asked him the price of carrots, the little brother who paid the bill was very enthusiastic and told us not to buy it is not a good deal.
The aquarium part is also fun. We also saw sturgeon that produce caviar. The souvenir shop is small and fine, and find a small penguin book that is very cute for children.
This is indeed the best place to walk children in Montreal, where we have seen the most children since landing. Listening to them calling all kinds of animals in French and English, it was really cute. Outside Le Marche restaurant there is a row of slides about 5,6 meters high and a small maze suitable for children of all ages, open all day.
In Le Marche you can taste all kinds of food, pizza, barbecue, sandwiches, salads, burgers, pasta and more. These foods will make you feel warmer and more satisfied, while also providing needed energy and calories.
