At present, there are only 6 Disney theme parks in the world, and the scarcity is self-evident. Shanghai Disneyland covers an area of about 700 hectares, which is 5.5 times the size of Hong Kong Disneyland, and has the largest theme store in the world. In addition, 80% of the rides are newly designed, which is very different from other areas, and even if you visit other venues, it is still worth experiencing Shanghai Disneyland.
Disneyland is mainly geared towards children and teenagers, and its facilities are not exciting, but more focused on plot and interaction, such as Treasure Cove, Fantasyland, Mickey Avenue, Tomorrowland, Garden of Imagination, and Adventure Island. Treasure Cove is the only Disney section in the world with pirate elements, and the "Pirates of the Caribbean" is not to be missed. With the cooperation of light and shadow and voice-activated equipment, the Black Pearl makes difficult actions such as rolling, retrograde, and even rotation, and the effect is real. It is worth mentioning that at certain moments, Captain Jack will also appear, not flexible enough, but his Chinese skills are excellent.
The "Dream World" is the largest in area, and the amusement items are relatively peaceful, which is suitable for parent-child experience. Among them, the "Seven Dwarven Mine Cars" have an excellent reputation, and their thrilling level is actually only equivalent to the pleasant version of a roller coaster. If you're looking for more adrenaline, check out the other sections. The "Tron Light Wheel" in "Tomorrowland" takes only one minute to complete, but visitors are always screaming, and the visuals are so praised that they feel like they're in a video game. "Adventure Island" has high-quality amusement projects with a duration of nearly 5 minutes, and "Thundering Mountain Rafting" is similar to the story-rich but gentle rapids; "Soaring Over the Horizon" is even rarer, and Disney's unique video equipment is once again in full swing, allowing guests to enjoy the scenery of various places in the "sky", and the "movie" is stacked with easter eggs, and an unexpected building appears at the end.
Disneyland has a wide range of shows. "Adventure Island", "Treasure Cove" and "Tomorrowland" hold 5-10 stage performances every day. Outdoor performances in major sections are less frequent, 1-2 times a day, if time is pressing, it is recommended to experience the amusement facilities first. It's important to keep track of the time to visit, as the park hosts a daily fireworks show, so it's a good idea to keep an eye out for announcements and grab a good spot in advance. Almost all visitors agree that the location directly in front of the castle, close to the central area, is the best place to watch the fireworks, lights, and fountain show, and it is a great place to take pictures.
In 2016-2017, the total number of visitors to Shanghai Disneyland exceeded 10 million. Need to make psychological presets, many tourists frankly say "queue for 2 hours, amusement 2 minutes", we recommend visiting with relatives and friends, more than 3 people is better, mobile games, poker is also essential, be the long waiting time to mess up the mood outweighs the loss.
