Shanghai Disneyland is huge, with many facilities and quite a few good attractions. Complaints: The ticketing system is too complicated, with things like "VIP Card," "Early Bird Card," and so on. Even more bizarre is the fact that a single Fastpass for an attraction costs 180 RMB, which I think is unreasonable. Otherwise, you have to queue for 2-2.5 hours (Heat Chaser, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Motorbike). Overall, the prices are much higher than in Hong Kong. PS: Hong Kong Disneyland has expansion plans, and your reputation will probably suffer even more then. There are tons of scalpers cutting in line and offering to queue for others. Honestly, your management has a lot of room for improvement.

Ocean Park is just across the road from ski park. 1 day is enough to explore if you reach early. There are rides inside the ocean park. Use QR code and we can enter. Easy and convenient.

The Shanghai Museum, located in the bustling heart of Shanghai, is a large, comprehensive museum. It houses a vast collection of precious historical artifacts and works of art, ranging from ancient bronzes to modern paintings and calligraphy. The museum not only showcases the profound depth of Chinese culture but also reflects the historical evolution of Shanghai.

The Shanghai Wild Animal Park is celebrating its 30th anniversary! Thanks to the red panda twins (a male and female panda) in August, admission is free for those born in August. Although I've been many times before, today's experience was especially meaningful. Plus, those born in August also enjoy a special price of 30 yuan for the circus performance – it was fantastic!

My second visit was still breathtaking; the saying "revisiting the old to learn the new" is truly apt—the vast universe offers new insights with every visit. ✨ Highlights ✨ ▫️15:00- In-depth Guided Tour (1.5h) Led by a professional guide, I only discovered its wonders on my second visit. Revisiting the Foucault pendulum, meteorite craters, and the four main exhibition halls… It felt like a journey through time. 17:00 Evening Lecture Hall - Encountering the Stars Understanding meteor showers, and enjoying an immersive viewing experience of the Sun Song in the dome theater while reclining… watching the stars while lying down in the planetarium was fantastic. Following the staff's explanations, we traveled through the vast cosmos, searching for stars⭐️ These past few days have been perfect for the Geminid meteor shower. The weather wasn't great during the day, but the clouds cleared up at night, allowing us to stargaze for a while at the outdoor observatory—a wonderful experience! This time, the package we experienced last year was different; the planetarium offered more immersive experiences. I'll definitely come back to check it off my list!

I went for the second time and still loved it. The variety of tunnels was amazing, and the 1.5-meter tunnel was perfect for photos. This time I also brought my mom and kids, so it was a fun trip for everyone.

Shanghai Romance Park is definitely worth seeing! The stage is incredibly high-tech, with stunning water curtain and rising platform effects that vividly portray the prosperity and changes of old Shanghai. The actors are exceptionally expressive, and the interactive segments are also very fun, making it a feast for both the eyes and the soul!

Shanghai Zoo is truly a treasure trove for families with children and a wonderful place to connect with nature! It's incredibly convenient to get to; Metro Line 10 goes directly to the South Gate, and the entrance is right outside the station, so you don't have to wander around at all. The park is beautifully planned, with lush greenery and even creatively painted tree hollows, making it feel like stepping into a fairytale world with fresh, comfortable air. The zoo boasts a rich variety of animals, including giant pandas, South China tigers, and gorillas, all popular attractions. It also houses the only zoo in China where the four great apes have been successfully bred, allowing you to observe their adorable appearance up close. The exhibits are ecologically designed, with an entrance aviary featuring streams and waterfalls, and a native animal area where you can learn about Shanghai's native species, combining sightseeing with educational value. The facilities are exceptionally user-friendly. Strollers can be rented at the entrance, and there are drinking fountains and various dining options inside the park. The shuttle bus offers unlimited rides. Whether you're taking your children to learn about nature or simply want to relax, it's perfect, offers excellent value, and is definitely worth visiting multiple times!

I had a great time at Shanghai Happy Valley. The ticket booking process on the Trip app was fast and reliable. I got my QR code instantly and entered the park without any issues. It was a convenient way to buy tickets and I really enjoyed the rollercoasters.
