Hong Kong Disneyland

Disneyland is a word that often rings in our mind since we were a child, hoping to go and get a chance to enjoy ourselves right at the castle itself to see all our beloved character and by taking a picture would make it a very memorable one. One that had made it more possible to many kids around South East Asia as Hong Kong Disneyland which had open few years ago that make a big impact around the region. as the nearest we visit is Japan (still one of my dream). Now they had build one in Hong Kong that is located at Nantau Island which is easily access with public transportation. One of the way to get there is by their very convenient MTR train that 1/3 of the population board on it daily.

You can also purchase the ticket in advance for cheaper pricing compare to the ticket counter.

1. Hong Kong 4G wifi (Airport Pick Up)
2. Hong Kong Disneyland Ticket
3. Meal Coupon

*REMARK – This is a very very long post filled with lots of pictures. Ur fingers might get tired or numb from scrolling!

If you are living around the city hotels you can easily access to  many of the MTR line available as just to switch to head there. So how we travel to Disneyland is either by MTR or by Taxi as there are 3 brands of it too. The common taxi is the red colour as what we usually see in TVB series which is the most expensive, another one is Lantau Taxi that take passenger to Disneyland or the cheapest brand of all. One of the catch is to take a cab in Hong Kong is pretty much expensive therefore I would advise on taking their MTR. (more details click  here)

This is one of a cool train as the connecting train from Sunny Bay Station to Disneyland, it is a special train that design to be more nice as the train is design in with Mickey Character. Mickey ears handle.  .

MAIN STREET

As we walk to the main area, Main Street is the main area that offers us all customer service, lost and found and souvenir that you get most of it here.

Love the whole architecture here that they build it so 70’s that is a perfect place to take alot of pictures and please do!

Now is the time that every one will be barred from walking in the center as every one is ready and will be standing and seated at the side walkway to welcome one of the main show in area.

So its 3pm and its time for a street parade which is FANTASy PARADE that starts daily at 3pm by featuring all the Disney Character

Tadaa…this is our spot. . heheh . .and the weather for the day is killing us. It was super hot and I bet you will find some where shady, guess it was suppose to be autumm weather that need to be at 17-22 for the day but on that day we were there it was like about 24.. melting. .  luckily did not sweat.

ADVENTURE LAND

After the show we head to Adventureland which is on the left from the exit and you will head to another dimension more like Indiana Jones dimension

Rafts and Tarzan Tree House

One of the show that you must watch in Adventureland is Festival of the LION KING, that they have a schedule on every 2 hours if I am not mistaken and the show is about 30 minutes long. The time for the day is fixed and available in the map which is available at the main entrance.

Its a round stage and we calculate that can approximately host 1500 crowd at 1 show and its a round staging so feel free to choose to sit where you like, best view from our point of view is come in from the main entrance on turn LEFT that area as we find that most performer look towards that side.

Indeed its a great musical show that involve many performer and if you do have time in Adventure land I would Recommend to WAtch this LION KING show as it certainly suits all adults and kids

Next we head to Jungle River Cruise which will suit kids, cruising on the river to check out many animal and hunter.

Lets go, as you get to choose either Cantonese or English Speaker before you go on board.

this is the English speaker guide for the day . ..

Let the journey start and one of the way to go over to the tree house is you have to come to this dock take the raft over to the other side!

I am fascinated by the gloves as they have variety of it and I have Mickey’s palm now .. 😀

Main Street during night .. . As there are one show that every one is hopping for at 8pm is the magnificent musical fireworks

We walked quickly to Corner Cafe to have our dinner as we are left with 45 minutes before the fireworks starts.

Love the ambiance of the restaurant as its very English heritage style with indoor classic decor and outdoor garden like  . .

as the end of the tour package that we got, we were given a token gift from them on Toy Story character and each of us get to choose one.

Its great that this trip get to meet alot of new friends  . . Cheers to all of you~

The menu offers limited choices of food as we just need a quick one will do. . .

Before the meals are served, fresh bread of the day with oat and plain bread. . . Its fresh and served warm too. I ate 3 of these.  .:D

Pork Burger . ..

Here it is, the moment of truth, Disney in the Stars Fireworks Show the whole place had off the light left the castle, with nice Disney music tone as the background and story telling behind it . . It would be the musical fireworks  . . .  MUST NOT MISS!!!!

Some night shots of Main Street

Just love this fountain during at night, as its musical fountain . .

Its a great day to be at Hong Kong Disneyland finally and I had a lot of fun myself by taking lots of pictures and it certainly make me a very happy person when I left after enjoy all the great performers, songs and dance. . I find that their entrance fees is very reasonable . .

You can buy at 1 day Pass or 2 Day pass  . . As I find that if you plan to explore every corner of Disneyland then would advise you to get 2 days pass and if you want to get the experience of it just spend one full day there and just do not miss out my recommended shows n
