How a foreign visitor actually books it
Yancheng is the rare genuinely old thing here: a Spring-and-Autumn-period settlement ringed by three concentric moats, dated back well over two thousand years, now built out into a tourist zone south in Wujin District. It's real-name, so a passport works as ID; buy at the gate or through an officially listed platform. Note the wider Yancheng area also holds a separate ticketed safari park (野生动物世界) and other paid zones — they're different tickets, so be clear which gate you're buying for. Reach it by BRT bus B1 or by metro plus a connecting bus.
What else to know
We list no official booking page and no verified price here — Yancheng is a cluster of separately ticketed zones (the moated relic park, a large safari park quoted around ¥180, and theme-park sections) rather than one gate with one published official price we could confirm, so check the current ticket for the specific zone you want at the gate or on an officially listed platform. The draw is the ancient triple-moat earthwork and a calm, green half-day; the bolted-on theme-park parts are ordinary, so go for the relic and the setting.
If the official channel does not work
Do not assume an unrecorded booking route is available. Recheck the operator’s current instructions; where the interface itself is the obstacle, the practical mechanics are in buying tickets the official way and booking without WeChat.
