First Visit to the World of Frozen at Hong Kong Disneyland! ❄️

Anna and Elsa invited me to experience everything the Kingdom of Arendelle (World of Frozen) offers at Hong Kong Disneyland! We tried the local cuisine, experienced its attractions, browsed the merchandise, met the citizens of Arendell, and attended the grand opening with special guests. I’m excited to share this experience with you.
Thank you to Hong Kong Disneyland for inviting us to the event.

Hi, 👋🏽 My name is Chris, aka TDRExplorer, and I started sharing my theme park adventures. Over the years, TDRExplorer has become a resource for passionate theme park fans looking to make the best of their trips to Asia. Including Tokyo Disneyland and Universal Studios Japan!

[@notsniw135]

I like that Hong Kong Disneyland is being surrounded by mountains. The castle really fits into the background and feels like you're in a countryside fairytale kingdom.

[@tdrexplorer]

I love the mountains in the background, it adds so much to the park.

[@Tortidis987]

@@tdrexplorer the natural mountains are really what makes this land work and feel like Arendale, you can just imagine Elsa covering them with snow too! Love that this video had everything, day and night, great work as always Chris!

[@kelseyhann]

Right? The sleigh coaster looked so pretty in front of the mountain!!

[@alishanightshade3270]

The cast member always know how to make everything logical when there’s accident like Mossi saying bye. I clove how they stay in character so much

[@tdrexplorer]

I noticed that too, it was a great save.

[@thatrandomgirl4574]

Wow amazing to see anna using sign language!!! I hope more themeparks do this as well.

[@JennyNicholson]

Your arendelle fit aaaahhhhhh

[@tdrexplorer]

We put the outfits together for the occasion!

[@jimoran5265]

It's so exciting that Hong Kong Disneyland invited you! Your outfit looked fantastic!

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you so much!!

[@jonathanchan4265]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1222">20:22</a> Oaken is saying: “You guys are gonna riding my sleighs to the top of the mountains! Aren’t you excited?” So excited to go Hong Kong Disneyland this Christmas! Hope you had a wonderful time in World of Frozen, Chris!

Right?!

[@melissadunton3534]

So, I honestly had no desire to visit Hong Kong Disney. My sights have only been set on Japan and Disney Sea. But now… well, I absolutely MUST visit Arendelle in Hong Kong. Thank you so much for sharing this unique experience that you had. I will have to bring my Goddaughter and grandbaby to see Anna, Elsa and the rest of the Arendelle townsfolk. Much love to you from Pennsylvania, USA. ❤😊 PS…I absolutely loved seeing you on Ordinary Adventures. My two fav KZbinrs in one video made my heart sing!! 🥰

[@bsarahla]

going through a really low point mentally and I'm so glad I came across your page. Thanks for what you do

[@kayc_x3]

Thanks for showing us around!! Its so interesting to me how much of the park is accessible to english-speakers. I'm not sure how the native people of Hong Kong feel about that but its definitely good for me! Also I wanted to say that I just love how the Frozen Ever After rides all include the large lift hill, and backwards section because of the original in Epcot being built on the bones of Maelstrom. Makes me feel proud of one of my favorite OG rides to see its roots spreading around the world. :)

[@livingandlearningeachnewday]

The native people of HK speak English! English is an official language here, pretty much everyone speaks it along with Cantonese.

[@EpicLemonMusic]

Been to Hong Kong many times, it had been full of Brits since the 1800s so English is spoken, often better than Americans. I am not a fan of HK Disneyland though, pretty boring, but frozen looks good.

[@wood._.]

Seeing ppl saying how much they love WOF in Hong Kong Disneyland really makes me happy. Thank you for loving WOF. Thank you Disney and all the Imagineers who worked hard to accomplish it! A big thanks to TDR Explorer visiting and letting the world know more about WOF☺️!

[@ViolenziaDomestica]

What a truly magical place. The sweaters are everything, something about that style just screams cozy! The chicken sandwich looked yummy. The character interactions were so cute, and definitely another level ❤ Carrot cake is the best of the cakes imo and it looked so good!

[@tdrexplorer]

It’s been a long time since I had carrot cake and that one didn’t disappoint 🤤 Thank you for always watching and commenting!

[@ViolenziaDomestica]

never forget, sweaters are everything!

[@ShaferScott]

Wow, that sliding sleigh ride was literally 30 seconds long. Longer rides please Disney.

[@kayc_x3]

That stage show was definitely better than a regular meet and greet! Wow that was amazing! I can only imagine how magical that will be for children

[@BHStudios01]

I absolutely LOVE that Anna is signing throughout the entire show!

[@debbiecheng3256]

I like the way u laugh, the way how u share and explain the food, environments and shows in details. Can see you enjoy so much at Disneyland. I’m just gonna arrange a time to go Disneyland Hong Kong.

[@jlbnerdy]

Was Anna signing part of the playhouse? That looked like an amazing experience & I definitly know we couldn't even handle that in FL. It's so sweet though!

[@tdrexplorer]

Yes, she was! Hong Kong started doing that with some entertainment a few years ago. Thank you for always watching and commenting!

[@Miss_Nicky31]

The Kingdom of Arendelle looks so magical! It is beautiful! I saw video's about it pop op on KZbin by other creators, but wanted to wait for your video. I always love your enthusiasm and your video's are the best! 😃

[@tdrexplorer]

Aww, thank you! That means a lot

[@sanashi27]

I think the place is pretty amazing! It's one thing going to Disneyland which you can see and feel is a theme park but it's another when the theme is specifically of a world whose story you're familiar with. I think it makes it more "magical".

[@jarrodwb8422]

You put so much effort and lightheartedness into each of your videos! Thank you so much for sharing your magical Summer Snow Day with us all! ✨☃️

[@mattjcwig]

That queue for frozen ever after is such a nostalgia hit, themed close to medievil style and the music just reminds of Camelot Theme Park, if someone in this comment section knows what that is reply 😁

[@cynthialora7243]

I think the best part of your videos is just your pure excitement! Within minutes of watching I’m smiling from your giddiness and excitement ❤

[@molybdnum]

Great as always to have thorough and entertaining coverage of the Asian parks! Although some of the ride systems are recycled it looks like imagineers had a great time expanding on the area's possibilities.

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you for watching! I had fun making this video and glad I could provide some entertainment while being informative!

[@Simply_mystical]

The playhouse was adorable!!! I loved watching it so much oh my goodness

They did a great job with the theming. You have to really like frozen though. I kind of wish they had done a Princess land instead, with multiple princess areas and rides. They could do a Pocahontas forest, Tangled Teacups, Esmerelda's Festival of Fools, a Beauty and the Beast or Princess and the Frog ride... there are so many great movies that fans would love to see represented

Thx so much for going all out with this Chris, and such cute outfits, on point! I love the design of the movies, and they seem to have really brought it all out here. (I’d personally purchase anything with that sweet design on the pasta platter, but I’m weird that way.) Interesting having the high muckety mucks there for the opening :) Occurs to me they could’ve said something about the cast in the park, those folks seemed way beyond incredible. I guess they were trying to keep it short? I’m so interested in the prices of things, esp compared to Japan. The prices seem so much closer to US parks. I wonder if that’s bc Disney, or if things are really more expensive in Hong Kong generally. Anyway, you’re the best and thanks again!

love this i’ve already been there before it opened it was exclusive for members i wanna say the coaster was kinda disappointing i mean the view was fantastic but the ride lasted for like 45 secs i wish i could stay on it for a longer time but the architecture and everything slayed and just to let you know what oaken said in the sauna when you were in the line of the sliding sleigh ride so he said something like you’re about to go on a sleigh to the top of the mountain aren’t you excited, my friend in cantonese it was really funny (edit: i think someone already translated in the comments but never mind) sadly i couldnt go to the playhouse in the woods we had some issues with the reservation so thanks for showing me what’s inside though i’m definitely going there again very soon!
