We got a taxi reasonably cheap there and back from our hotel in Kowloon and it was very easy as we didnt have to wait in any queues for buses or trains. You ... ...only thrill ride in Disney Hong Kong. It is an indoor roller-coaster which has sharp quick turns and dips. It makes you feel like you are shooting through the stars you are going that quick. You are advised before you go on the ride that if you have neck or back problems not to go on it and this definitely needs to be listened to, as during all the ride you are jerked and shook about as you go through the darkness. After I got off this ride I had ...

Advantages: it's disneyland!!! Disadvantages: not for people looking for exciting rides
The latest tourist attraction in Hong Kong: the Hong Kong Disneyland. It is absolutely a fantasy land but please don't expect this to be like other Disneylands in the world. This is a much much smaller one and exciting rides is not its attraction. In fact, only the Space Mountain could be considered as an exciting ride. But if you are looking for some fantasy and you have always enjoyed the shows in Disneyland, this one could serve your need.
1) ... ...to other Maxim's restaurant in Hong Kong. If you don't wanna waste time on eating (as it usually takes more than an hour to eat in a chinese restaurant), and want to go for something other than typical western fast food, I would recommend the bakery called "market house bakery" in the middle of the main street, which is also ran by Maxim's. The food inside is freshly made everyday with the choice of different types of bread, pastries and drinks. ...

Advantages: Beautiful park and setting, cheap prices, great shows, great fireworks each night Disadvantages: Small, not that many attractions yet
...I didn't hesitate to add Hong Kong to the list. If you go knowing in advance that this is a much smaller park, then you shouldn't be disappointed. We found it a beautiful park, and we had a super day there.
Unlike other Disney parks, there's no need to be there especially early, so we casually made our way from Kowloon by MTR, which includes a changes before getting on Disney's very own train from Sunny Bay station. The detail in the train alone ... ...bought tickets there and then without having to queue.
We went on a midweek day at the end of November, and were pleasantly surprised by the number of people there. It was quiet enough to get on most rides without much of a wait, but busy enough to have a great atmosphere. The Christmas festivities that were in full swing may have added to the attendance.
The park was spotlessly clean, and all the staff were very friendly, chatty and smiling - ...

...it has finally arrive in Hong Kong, my birthplace. It is located in the Lantau Islands, close to the new airport. I went there after a few months of opening. You need to get on the railway network of MTR and interchange for the Disneyland Resort Line at Sunny Bay Station. In there, you can on the special "disney" train. Once I got on it, I was already very excited. Inside the train, they have put in various statues of disney characters on display. ... ...I went to both and it was a good opportunity to take lots of pictures. In the evening parade, they also have fireworks which can really spice up your evening. It is not exceptional to those who've been to Disneyland but it's Disneyland in the Hong Kong style. ...
