A Day in Hong Kong Disneyland

I'm back at the happiest place in Hong Kong—Disneyland! Whether you’re visiting with kids, adults, or seniors, there’s something magical for everyone. Your Hong Kong trip will not be complete without visiting this theme park, and you should allocate at least 1 day for you to enjoy the park! My first out-of-the-country trip is to Hong Kong (2018) and I am so happy to be back.

Getting to Hong Kong Disneyland

By MTR (Mass Transit Railway):

The Disneyland Resort Line is the easiest way to reach the park. Ride MTR and transfer to the Disneyland Resort Line train at Sunny Bay Station—it’s hard to miss with Mickey-shaped windows and whimsical Disney decor.


Morning

Start your day early to catch the “Opening Ceremony” at the gates, where Mickey and friends wave you in with music and cheer. Then, hit the rides before the crowds grow! Ride the train at Main Street Station to stroll around the park, or head to World of Frozen before the lines go long!

The World of Frozen is one of Hong Kong Disneyland’s newest and most exciting additions, making it a must-visit for fans of the beloved Frozen movies. This immersive land brings the magical kingdom of Arendelle to life with attractions, entertainment, and themed experiences that will captivate visitors of all ages.
