[2025 Shanghai Shopping Mall] Travel Guide for World Disney (Updated Jul)

Everyone has a castle in their heart, and you can definitely find yours in Disneyland🏰 I was afraid of being in the crowd during the summer vacation, so I specially chose the day when the little beasts returned. There were about 40,000 tourists that day, but if you do your homework in advance, you will definitely have a great time. ✨Download the APP in advance. The park is quite large, and the APP provides routes and live status of each project, which makes it convenient to adjust the tour route in time. ✨Early Access Card is very cost-effective. You just need to be an early bird and popular projects will be open to you. ✨Plan the activities you want to play first. You can play small projects when you have time. We watched "Hot Pursuit" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" twice. ✨Keep your tickets safe and you can enter and exit the park multiple times. Dining in Disney Town is cost-effective. The Disney World Store is in Disney Town, so you can go shopping after your meal. ✨You can bring water and food into the park. It is recommended not to throw away the bottles after drinking water. There is direct drinking water available. We bought Heytea after lunch and poured it into a water bottle to cool it down and prevent it from spilling. ✨If you want to record a video of the light show, it is recommended to reserve a spot early. The visual effects of the light show and fireworks are quite shocking. Summary: It was very hot that day, but we had almost no queues outside, and the hottest noon time was used for lunch break and Disney World store. We completed 3 projects before regular ticket tourists entered, and visited 8 popular projects in total throughout the day, including the second viewing of "Hot Pursuit" and "Pirates of the Caribbean". My friend and I loved these two projects very much. The scenes were full of sense, and the visual, sound effects and experience were great. If you don't want to be a special forces tourist, nor are you a wealthy tourist, as long as you make a good plan and don't want everything, your trip to Disney will definitely be unforgettable and enjoyable.

#solotravel World Disney is located in the Disney town, next to Disneyland (few minutes walking distance) offering a wide range selection of Disney products such as the toys, cups, clothes, bags and so on!! If you are not planning to buy an entrance ticket for the Disneyland but would like shop for Disney products, this is a good place for you and Im sure you will be spending more than an hour here😆 Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Is there anyone who doesn’t love Strawberry Bear? Although he is actually just a supporting villain with a small role in the Toy Story series, who makes him cute? It's so cute that I can't really hate it, so I have to accept it obediently! The Disney store recently has a Strawberry Bear theme🍓Although the whole set is not big, it is already so cute, and it is full of pink bubbles wherever you take a photo💓 #popularexhibition The oversized strawberry bear doll’s mouth is full of strawberries🍓I can’t help but want a big bear hug, hahaha! There is also a Strawberry Bear den, it’s so fun to go in and take photos! There is also an event where you can take photos and check in to receive a Strawberry Bear mobile phone holder, which feels really great! #

Unknowingly, it has been the 20th anniversary of the release of the Disney-Pixar animated film "Monsters, Inc." I still remember the first time I met James Sullivan and Mike Waski when I was just a kid, and they were all there in the blink of an eye. After walking with them for so long, I feel a lot of emotions. You know, James Sullivan, the Big Size furry monster, has been my favorite animated character since 20 years ago. Back then, I was moved by the huge difference in size between these two monsters, who bonded due to "conflict" and eventually became buddies. Every time I see their peripherals at Disney, I can't help but buy them! This 20th anniversary, come and see what Shanghai Disney has to offer! 🔹Sulley and Big Eyes Backpack: super soft and cute, price: 399CNY. It can be carried by both adults and children, and the texture is very soft! 🔹The hairy monster Abu pendant: The image of the hairy monster saving Abu has always been a classic among classics. Price: 129CNY. Great for hanging on bags! 🔹Sultry three-eyed boy cross-body mobile phone bag: it can be used as decoration or as a mobile phone. Price: 299CNY. I bought these items because I like them so much. Spend money to buy happiness, hahaha!

#discoverchina We had so much fun shopping at the World of Disney Store in Shanghai Disney Resort! The store was huge and filled with all kinds of Mickey merchandise—plush toys, clothes, bags, and more. Everything looked so cute, we didn’t know where to start. One of our favorite finds was the Mickey-shaped earrings. They were small, sparkly, and super adorable—perfect for Disney fans. There were different styles too, some simple and some more fancy. We spent a while browsing through all the shelves, trying on accessories and picking out souvenirs. The whole store felt magical, and it was hard to leave without grabbing a few treasures to take home!

It was back in 2019 when I first visited Shanghai, China. The park was massive—of course, it’s Disneyland, so you can’t expect anything less. I fell in love with all the rides, especially the TRON ride, which is super popular. You might have to wait in a long line for it, but trust me, it’s worth every minute. It was such a fun and mesmerizing experience that completely took me by surprise. The food was amazing, and I’d definitely take the time to visit again. And the nighttime fireworks? Absolutely dreamy—but be warned, the crowds are intense! #discoverchina #disneyland #disneyland_shanghai #shanghai #china #amusementpark

Even if you don't do the open run, you can ride a lot on rainy days or weekdays! I arrived at 1:30 and rode 11.

Guys, make sure you don’t move from Disneyland before watch the fireworks! It was amazing ! #Disneyland #shanghai #shanghaitravel #worldoffrozen #fireworks

It was Monday and still crowded but not too crowded like weekend. All the attractions were amazing, even we had to wait but all WORTH to wait! And the fireworks were super awesome and amazing! And we came on Mickey and Minnie’s birthday, lovely! It’s a special moment! A day in Disneyland Shanghai, you won’t ever regret guys! You must try once in a lifetime. The foods price are quite expensive, start from ¥45 for croissants/cake only, it’s better to bring food from outside! And better you live in a hotel outside but nearby I choose Novotel bcs they have shuttle bus. Come to Disney in the morning, take shuttle bus on 7 am or 7.30 am max, better! Good luck everyone! ♥️♥️♥️#disneyland #shanghai #shanghaitravel

Princes and princesses, Come to your happy homeland Disney fairy tale world! Let's be the protagonists of the fairy tale world! Put on little accessories and take beautiful photos Capture happy and beautiful moments Please keep this park shopping guide well~ Disney World Store🏬 is outside the Disney ticket check (You have to queue again when you go out and come back in) It's a store that you can enter without buying a ticket It's also the largest store, with many styles But don't wait until after the evening ends to buy a lot of things Because there will be super many people and the queue for checkout will be very long Also, pay attention Some styles are only available in this store For example: some pretty hair accessories You can't find them in the stores inside Disney Especially the Mickey hats! So if you see something you like, be decisive and grab it

I went to Disneyland on Saturday and there were so many people that the queues for popular attractions were basically more than 2 hours, and other attractions took at least 50 minutes. But the weather was very good on Saturday, and the sky, dyed with gold and pink and purple, made Disney even more like a fairy tale world. 🧚🏻‍♀️ -LePaiTong📷 You can buy it on the App, 238 per copy, you can take photos of up to 4 people. The first store on the right after entering the door can be used to redeem cards and print photos. There will be some people wearing PhotoPass uniforms in the park. You can take photos by showing them your card. The results of photos taken with LePaiTong are pretty good, but the biggest bug is that there are regulations on the locations and times. If you go too late, you won’t be able to take many photos, which is not cost-effective. -Shop, shop, shop👛 There is a world store in Disney Town, which has a wide range of products. As soon as I went there, I was fascinated, and later I found that there were many small shops inside with different styles. There are many scalpers in the store, and they can get discounts if they pay on your behalf. You need to draw lots on the app to enter the Manyue store to make purchases, but the winning rate is quite high. -Cute baby🎃 Qibao interacted one-on-one at different locations. I saw Bingbing, Stella Lou, Tony, and Olu along the way. The interactive locations of these are all on the street, only Belle's is relatively hidden, in the Hall of Plenty in Adventure Island. If you don’t want to queue too long, you can go to Fengsheng Hall and say hello when Belle passes by during her break. -Eat, eat, eat🌭 There are restaurants in Disney Town, including Thai food, tea restaurants, coffee shops, etc. The food in the park is mainly sold at small stalls, such as chicken legs for 80 yuan and beef rolls for 60 yuan. -Fireworks🎆 There are two fireworks this Saturday, at 18:45 and 21:15. It was not as amazing as I had imagined, because the fireworks were set to music and therefore not continuous. Tips📝 -Disney Town and the park are independent, and you can go to the World Store in Disney Town to buy things without buying tickets. - There will be traffic restrictions in the park due to float parades or fireworks, so you can only go around in big circles. -You can’t take photos, shop and visit multiple attractions in one day, so it’s best to buy a two-day ticket.

#timetotravel When visiting Shanghai, or even if you live here and want some happiness , make sure to plan a trip to Disney town and the big Disney store : World Disney.
