People who hate Shanghai Disneyland are the owners of other amusement parks in China. In fact, this place looks clean. Of course, it's run by Disney, so the standard is at the highest.

[@mengyu1524]

I used to live in NZ. Miss that kiwi humour!

[@bidujador]

As someone who also lives in Shanghai, has been there several times and just went there yesterday I can say the following in no particular order. 1.The park is beautiful and the cast members (not so much the guests) keep it very clean. The park was designed to be more spacious so even when the crowds are there it doesn't look overly crowded except during parade time and fireworks time when everyone does gather around specific locations. 2. Even though there are less rides compared to other Disney Parks there is still plenty of stuff to do for one whole day there 3. The first time I went there two years ago, the meal offer was bad and it was indeed just the kind of Chinese food I don't eat, even my wife, who is Chinese, didn't find it appealing so we just ended up eating right outside of the park in Disneytown which is actually a good option, but when we went yesterday, we were surprised that they have added many new options inside the park. They even have the turkey legs now! 4. The problem with people pushing and cutting line is mainly with older Chinese people, the often called "lost generation" because they have poor manners everywhere they go and not just in Disneyland, but younger people and families with children, which make the majority of the audience, do follow the rules. The only thing I really hate is the smoking. Men are always smoking outside of the designated areas, particularly in or near the restrooms. 5.It's the shows that are only in Chinese. The signage is always in both Chinese and English and the narration in most rides as well.. at least the safety instructions are, even though the in-ride character animatronics will also speak Chinese but I find that doesn't detract too much from my enjoyment of the ride. 6.For whatever reason, Duffy and friends are indeed very popular here in China so it makes sense that they carry so much of their merch but they carry even more merch of the classical characters and, on any given day, you'll probably see more people with Mickey ears than Duffy hats inside the park, aside from that, I've noticed Lotso bear from toy story 3 and Judy Hops from zootopia are also unexplanably popular in merch here. My regret is that Star Wars is not popular at all here in China so they ended up removing all traces of its presence in the park and the merch is hard to come by. 7. While most cast members inside the park are super friendly, the same cannot be said of the ones at the gates. They have been very rude to us on a couple of ocassions, but if you can get past that, the ones inside the park are normally trying their best to offer you a great experience. I have spoken

So I live in California. I'm a huge Disneyland fan and passholder. I had heard all of these terrible Shanghaid Disneyland stories and read reviews on Trip Advisor. Most of the bad ones were from the opening days. Disneyland in California had many problems when it first opened as well. Thank you for sharing your love of Shanghai. This park looks beyond amazing and is on my bucket list. It definitely exemplifies the progress Disney has made over 65 years of building theme parks. Keep spreading the Disney magic!

Gosh that's an exciting trip! Sorry it took me so long to reply. Definitely two days in tokyo. One for each park. When they had a park hopper third day option I would have said 3. For Shanghai one days is probably enough if you go on a quiet day. You'll need two if its a busy time

[@heymagicalday]

Before going, so many people talked about the bathroom and people cutting in line issues that I tried to prepare myself for the worst. While there, I only saw one child going to the bathroom into a bag in the Toy Story area, and the only line people were crowding and trying to cut in was Crystal Grotto. One mom kept telling her kids to go to the front of the line, trying to get the cast member to let her "catch up" to her kids, but the cast member just kept sending them back to her. haha The impression I got was the older generations and those with kids were more likely to be pushy and try to cut, but the younger generations were chill. We did leave during the fireworks though because it was so crowded it felt like being at a concert that's so crowded you can't move. It was pretty scary. So from my experience, there is some truth to it, but not as bad as it's made out to be. Overall I loved being there, I loved the food, I loved the merch, and I can't wait to go back!

[@jakelaw93]

Thanks for such a detailed comment! Yes I have seen this behavior too, but its very rarely, it's definitely worst in summer holidays when the park is swamped with guests, but overtime behavior has been changing in the park too. I hope you can come back soon. 😊😊 And stay for the amazing fireworks!

[@heymagicalday]

@@jakelaw93 I can totally understand it being worse when it's more crowded. I've definitely seen bad behavior in all the other parks too. haha But thankfully it's rare, like you said! Thanks, hoping I can see the fireworks there sooner than later!

[@JetHawk]

Well, one way to combat line cutting is to cut with them. If everyone did it, the line cutters will just end up at the back of the line. Just like when everyone cut in front of Ned Flanders.

I have enjoyed visiting Shanghai Disneyland several times. Unique park and worth visiting to say the least. But yes there are cultural issues that I don’t agree with (crowding too close for comfort In queue is a big pain for me). And while I understand you’re being sarcastic, the truth is Shanghai Disneyland is a wonderful park. But you missed the most hated reason why people hate Shanghai Disneyland and that is people with cellphones up in the air taking flash photography inside dark rides (most offenders inside Pirates) blocking the view of those seated behind them. Rude rude rude. Still Shanghai Disneyland will never be Tokyo Disney Resort which is the best Disney experience out there but comes close, and Shanghai Disneyland still much better than the outdated Magic Kingdom park at Disney World.

[@jakelaw93]

Thanks so much for your honest response! I didnt even think of that reason, I dont think I've seen it happening often recently but maybe I got lucky.

[@dwayitis]

Oh and forgot to answer your question about the World of Disney Stores. There are 4. The ones at Disneyland resort and Walt Disney world are quite similar in design but the Shanghai facility and Disneyland Paris are actually quite unique in design to their resorts.

[@jakelaw93]

That's interesting! I like the design of the Shanghai store. With the posters from attractions all around the world. It looks fantastic!

[@smalls9852]

The fact that Shanghai Disney has different attractions is exactly why I want to go! I don't want to go to a whole different park and just ride the same rides. Plus this place looks so beautiful and clean!

Can you please tell me what is the best disney in China to go to for uniqueness and more of the 'Chinese' feel Hong Kong or Shanghai (and basically what is the best place for the money) Before going to Tokyo :) 2. My mother and I are both disabled (me more than her) do you know if you get any discount on the park ticket or the a card to say you need help on the rides? Hope to hear from you soon.

[@jakelaw93]

Hi Monika! I recommend Shanghai Disneyland for more uniqueness and feel, its also a much bigger and newer park. The only obstacles to coming here is you'll need a tourist visa in most circumstances which takes time to apply for. Tokyo is amazing. I havent heard of discounts like that but there may!

Been there in 2017, the only problems I found were language. I asked for an orange soda and got a pepsi then I talked to a castmember, he brought a manager she fixed fast. I only wanted to point out a language problem. The only other problem I had was how much spice they used on the chicken. My best memory was pin trading, I traded a Disneyland pin for another pin then a kid took the Disneyland pin in less than a minute and wanted to trade more. I should of given him a landyard. My home park is Disneyland CA. A great video !!

[@mmdbouman]

I agree with you that many people give SDLR too hard of a time. I went to Shanghai in 2017 and had a great time. However I did experience many people cutting in line, I saw some parents letting their kids go to the bathroom in the gardens while in line and I do agree that the castle is ugly from a far. To me it looks like a giant box with some towers stuck on there. From up close the details is marvelous. I totally laughed out loud at number 10. Shanghai Disneyland has by far the best food out of every theme park I’ve visited. Do you feel like line etiquette has improved over the years?

[@AJ_the_Traveler]

I’m loving the videos! I can’t wait to visit Shanghai Disneyland. I used to live in Tokyo and loved going to Tokyo Disneyland periodically. Shanghai looks awesome - in particular I can’t wait seeing that big ugly castle. Hahaha. I’m also excited for the Pirates ride, which looks so cool.

[@AJ_the_Traveler]

Jake's Journeys Yes, DisneySea is amazing! It wasn’t open when I lived there, but I’ve been once since. Loved it. I definitely will come to Shanghai some day! I almost had an opportunity to go late last year but it didn’t work out - I think maybe sometime in the next couple of years. I’m wondering if we should wait until Zootopia opens. That looks like it’ll be amazing. I love the merch in the asian parks! Only challenge for us is that we’re vegan and it seems there are not many vegan food options over there.

[@jakelaw93]

I do think vegan could be a challenge, I've been to Shanghai disneyland with a vegan friend, it is possible to find limited options but not easy. I suggest bringing some snacks in the park as now you can bring your own food inside!

Maybe because was their first season, things were a little out of control. But the rides were great and overall was a very good experience. We spend 3 days there. Thank God things are better now. Maybe the post pandemia crowd control is helping.

Thanks for your comment! Hope you liked my video, it is a bit tongue in cheek. I am glad to know things are improving. I think the guest culture is slowly changing overtime.

I love it. The cast members are so polite and friendly. All the signs are written in English. Some of them have Chinese translation. Jealousy and racism, that is the real reason why people hate Shanghai Disneyland so much.

Alot of the E Tickets attractions are not here.

[@jakelaw93]

None of the classic 'E-ticket' attractions are at Shanghai Disneyland. Tron, Pirates, 7 Dwarfs, Soaring over the horizon and Roaring Rapids and the soon to come Zootopia ride are all Modern 'E-tickets'

Thats' good.. you don't have to wear mask anymore? Hope it's the same when I'm in Disneyland Paris, November!

[@jakelaw93]

Only in lines and indoor areas are masks required. Shanghai hasn't had any community transmission of covid19 for months. :)

i never had a chance to go Disneyland but i do had a chance went to Universal theme park at Singapore which means you meet a lot of DreamWorks animation related, while in Malaysia do had Nickelodeon water theme park with SpongeBob, sadly is pandemic become a postpone plan. if speaking of budget i will do go for either Shanghai, Hong Kong, Japan Disneyland. if i am rich enough and need the all original Disneyland, and i am totally going to USA. if looking for something exotic , maybe will try on France Disneyland, that castle looks great. "France, the country of castle" . maybe one day my wish is granted , who know ?...

[@jakelaw93]

Hope your wish is granted!

[@laticha402]

They might be saying all that to prevent the park from being crowded for them lol

[@jakelaw93]

Yeah probably hahaha
