Shanghai Disneyland

I. Core Positioning

"Authentic Disney, Distinctively Oriental – A fantasy kingdom with the world's tallest castle, the world's first Zootopia land, and the world's only pirate-themed park"

Shanghai Disneyland is located in Pudong New Area, Shanghai. Officially opened on June 16, 2016, it is the first Disney theme park in Mainland China and the sixth Disney park in the world. Spanning 1.16 square kilometers, the park features eight themed lands. Its core appeal lies in this: Shanghai Disneyland offers not only authentic Disney magic but also uniquely Chinese elements – the world's tallest Enchanted Storybook Castle is adorned with peonies and auspicious clouds on its spires; the world's first "Mickey Avenue" replaces the traditional American Main Street theme; and the Chinese zodiac meets Disney characters in the "Garden of the Twelve Friends." Here you'll find the world's only Zootopia-themed land, the world's first TRON Lightcycle Power Run roller coaster, and the world's first pirate-themed land – Treasure Cove.
