Covering , the park includes an educational farm, a house, a zoo, and a botanical garden that occupies about and hosts over 2,000 species of plants and animals. Green World is divided into six themed areas: Discovery Land, Bird Ecological Park, Butterfly Ecological Park, Water Plants Park, Biodiversity Adventure Area, and the Swan Lake Area. Around 800,000 visitors are estimated to visit the park every year. The park claims to preserve most of the site's original landscapes and habitats and to have been built according to ecological engineering methods.
