Shanghai Disneyland (1 Day Admission) - Same Day Booking
This is the second time I have come to Shanghai Disneyland, and it is still full of surprises and joy. I bought an early ticket for a run to the horizon, and then I started playing next to each other. I basically enjoyed it twice. Last time I didn't see the float parade because of the rain, the weather finally got better this time. It was not raining in the afternoon and saw the parade. It was so fun and I really liked the atmosphere of Happy Valley.

✅打卡#EPSON TeamLab无.界艺术展# Come here to admire the world's only two art exhibitions. The Shanghai exhibition is 1.5 times larger than Tokyo, and there are many more world premieres. The perfect combination of high mountains and flowing water, shaded flowers, advanced light and shadow technology and Japanese aesthetics, the filming rate is super high! 👍 Today I am also a light chaser! ✨

Oriental Pearl Tower
It’s great that there is a dedicated channel and there is no need to wait long. I think there are many people in the general channel. The revolving restaurant has an atmosphere, the attitude of the service staff is very good, the meals are exquisite, and you can see a different Shanghai. The museum below introduces the history of Shanghai.

[20 Minute Confirmation] Yu Garden Admission Ticket in Shanghai
Fortunately, I bought it a few days in advance. When I arrived at the entrance of the park, some people could not get in. The weather was relatively hot, but there were a lot of shades in the trees. The spring water of various creeks was also very clear, suitable for taking pictures. I like it very much.
