As the newest Disneyland in
the world, Hong Kong Disneyland is a
must-see because of its special attractions and the inimitable sense
of Chinese culture. Walking into Hong Kong Disneyland, you feel you
are in a wonderland. Accompanied by Mickey Mouse and other Disney
friends, you start a fantastic and magical journey. With unique
scenic spots and Disney Theme Hotels, you can go escape from the
real world, and make your dreams come true. The availability of
delicious Chinese and Asian food is also a lure for many visitors
and Disney fans.
The first theme park you might come across is 'Main
Street, U.S.A.'. Entering Main Street, you will be amazed by the
delicate buildings, dim gas lamp and Paddy Wagon passing by. Antique
taxicabs, Disneyland Railroad and the City Hall transports you back
to America of the early 20th century. There are Chinese elements
here too. Plaza Inn, the first Chinese restaurant in Main Street,
complete with 19th Century Chinese table service. With the image of
cartoon heroine Mulan everywhere, you come to the conclusion that
Mulan is really at home now. Market House Bakery and Main Street
Corner Cafe are also good places for you to enjoy. Lingering in
Emporium and Main Street Mercantile, having a look in The Curiosity
Shop and Silhouette Shop, you will surely find timeless treasures.
If you feel courageous, try Adventureland. Guided by a
brave captain, Jungle River Cruise will take you into the heart of
hidden regions. Hippos, cobras, elephants, orangutans and startling
jungle events are waiting for you. As an attraction originally
conceived by Walt Disney fifty years ago, it has been given an
entirely new appearance with exciting 21st century Disney magic
especially for Hong Kong Disneyland! Festival of the Lion King will
keep your eyes glued on the show. Adapted from Disney's animated
classic 'The Lion King', this colorful pageant of music and dance is
just like a classic music drama because of its consummate
performers, costumes and exotic scenery. This is a show that will
appeal to all ages. Traveling by raft in the Rivers of Adventure,
you land at your destination: Tarzan Island. Exploring Tarzan Island
and visiting Tarzan's Treehouse reminds you of the story of this
human child raised by gorillas. After your travel to Tarzan Island,
follow the rhythm of jungle drums to find the secret of Liki Tikis.
Once you are in the circle, the refreshing blasts of water will
surprise even the hardiest explorer. Tahitian Terrace Restaurant and
River View Cafe here will make you feel satisfied to dine in the
jungle. You can even buy a jungle leaf in Professor Porter's Trading
Post as a keepsake.
Have you ever been touched by Cinderella's
extraordinary story and Winnie the Pooh's adventures in the forest?
Have you ever wanted to be a princess such as Snow White or Sleeping
Beauty? Do you still remember the little Flying Elephant and Alice
in Wonderland? Don't hesitate to come into Fantasyland. Cinderella
Carrousel, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Sword in the
Stone, Mad Hatter Tea Cups, Sleeping Beauty Castle, Dumbo the Flying
Elephant and Snow White Grotto to make all your storybook dreams
come true. You can also join Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and many
other friends at a dizzying 3-D attraction in Mickey's PhilharMagic.
Wearing special glasses, you can lie on the magic carpet with
Aladdin and smell the flavor of Donald Duck soup. Watch carefully
and don't forget you are a part of the program; otherwise you might
be sprinkled by the soup! The most fantastic place must be The
Golden Mickeys at Disney's Storybook Theater. Adapting all the
Disney classics into a 25-minute musical drama, mixing acrobatics
and special effects, this will make you stop blinking. In the
theater, Tarzan swings quickly on the rigging, just like the fan on
the ceiling. When The Little Mermaid Ariel appears, the whole
theater is submerged by bubbles descending from the ceiling; you
really feel that you are at sea. Mulan practicing martial arts and
traditional flag dances show the combination of eastern and western
culture.
Leave the fairytale wonderland perfectly contented; you
can step into Tomorrowland. Screaming in Space Mountain, you will
have no time to appreciate the sparkling stars because of the
exciting roller coaster. In Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters, you can
fly in your space capsule and fight against the aliens with your
space gun. If you are weary of the breathtaking attractions,
Orbitron is a good choice for you to fly above Tomorrowland and take
a rest. After space traveling, take a break at Starliner Diner and
Comet Cafe to enjoy some 'earth' cuisine that you can’t taste in
outer space. Also, Space Traders and Star Command Suppliers will
gives you a chance to do some space shopping. Don't forget to watch
the Grand Parade and Firework Play after a whole day's play!
When night falls, you crash out at a choice of Disney
Theme Hotels all with unparalleled accommodation. Whether you are at
the Victorian style Hong Kong Disneyland Hotel or being a big star
in Disney Hollywood Hotel, the magic of Disneyland can never stop!
