DH and I are very fortunate to have previously visited Disneyland in California, Tokyo Disney, EuroDisney outside Paris and Walt Disney World in Florida. This makes our 5th Disney Park. I am trying so hard not to say this is a miniature Disney   but there it is. That's the best explanation. If you are accustomed to what's on offer in central Florida, and surprised as we were, by how much smaller the parks are in California, you will be even more surprised by this park. It is tiny. And there's only one! We attended from ~4 pm 'til closing on a night with longer than normal hours due to the Halloween celebration and then spent the next day there as well. We did miss a few attractions, but not many and only because we doubled and tripled on those we liked. This is definitely not more than a two day park   even for a family with an 11 year old and a 5 year old. We did not attend any of the live shows as that usually isn't our thing and most of them were in Cantonese anyway. DH and the boys are variously fluent in Mandarin   but no one speaks a word of Cantonese so no help there. The hours are generally surprisingly short (perhaps because being weekdays in October, this is probably the off season). Information available on the web is also spotty. A mere 4 days before our arrival the park still had not posted definitive hours or their parade and fireworks schedule, which seems really odd and doesn't make it easy to plan ahead. Full menu's for the restaurants are also hard to come by, if available at all. As far as the Halloween celebration went   this park takes a detour from the approach in the US. There Disney goes to great lengths to make Halloween celebrations fun for the kiddos and not too scary. It's even called the 'Not so Scary Halloween Party'. They rely on their competitors to attract the older audience who may be more into hauntings and creepy things. Not so here. Almost the only things on offer that were special for Halloween included a gruesome scene on the Jungle River Cruise that was waaaayyyy too graphic even in silhouette, what with the blood curdling screams of the sound track   AND the cruise was narrated in Cantonese   which was the only thing that saved my kids from wetting themselves. The 5 year old remarked,  That wasn't so scary since I didn't understand any of it.  The other extra 'feature' your Halloween admission brought you was the treat of seeing actors in zombie makeup wander around three 'lands' haunting people, staring them down and telling scary stories (in Cantonese). Again   not what we had anticipated based on the US Halloween themed experiences. There was supposed to be some sort of trick or treating but we couldn't find it. There were also supposed to be special Halloween items on some menus   we saw a cookie or two but that was about it. The signage and communication especially for the holiday themed events are inadequate. Basically, we are glad we took advantage of the later closing, but other than that, would not recommend the Halloween celebration, especially for families with younger kids and those not fluent in Cantonese. Certain aspects like theming, the bar for which has been set really high in the original US parks, seem to have been given short shrift here. For instance, there's a walkway under which you pass to go to either Toy Storyland, Grizzly Gulch or Mystic Point or something and there's just a pedestrian underpass with three plaques on it. Blah. Pick your avenue. Then, when standing in line for the Autopia, they've strung up some sort of blue mesh through which you can clearly see the staging areas with all the cars they are recharging as well as a bunch of stuff under construction. My husband remarked that, especially while standing there for 30 minutes in line with nothing else to look sat, it really ruined some of the 'magic' for him. That's just something you wouldn't expect to find in the States   they work really hard to keep you and your attention 'in the moment' and in the attraction. Not so much here. The hotels are surprisingly far away   for what reasons I cannot fathom. The walk from their flagship hotel is ~15 minutes and the shuttle is about the same so no time savings there. The food is about what you've come to expect at Disney   overpriced (they know you have no alternatives) and mediocre at best. Our assessment applies as far as we're concerned to all cuisines   Asian or Western. It's not like the Chinese food is great, since you're in China and only the Western stuff is below par. They are equal opportunity food wreckers here. We were so excited to find a mango flavored Dole Whip with pineapple   and eager to compare it to the pineapple version found in the US parks...the pineapple version is sooooo much better :( The mango thing here is so sickly sweet I thought I'd get Type II Diabetes on the spot if I finished it...The food item we liked most was the caramel corn. YUM!!! I think we bought 5 boxes in the 2 days we were there.. One night that was dinner. It beat the heck out of some of the other stuff on offer and it was cheaper...They do seem to be expanding. There was an 'Iron Man Experience' attraction being built in Tomorrowland, set to open some time in 2016. So it seems they are adding attractions, albeit slowly. I think that will be great, especially if they get things none of the other parks have. The one really great thing about it being a small park and the off season is that our second day there we saw like zero lines. Can you say,  Space Mountain and Buzz Light Year with exactly no wait?  It didn't matter the attraction, there was no waiting and Fast Passes were basically not needed. Also   Space Mountain was REALLY DARK. As in, you couldn't see the track in front of you at all. I'm not really into that sort of thing, and I can usually discern the track in the other versions of the ride   but not so here. So if that's your thing, then it might be worth a trip! Also, the ticket prices seemed really reasonable. I know because we're planning a trip to Anaheim in like a month and these tickets came out to ~$75 US per day. The cheapest one day, one park ticket in the US is now $100. So there was definitely a savings there. One thing this park had in spades over Tokyo Disney was park specific swag. YAY! If you make the effort to come all the way here, it's nice to know you can get a shirt or hoodie or hat that says,  Look! I made it all the way to HONG KONG Disney!  They had lots of options that were attractive and well priced, unlike Tokyo which had almost nothing. Now they just need the same thing that tells the world I stayed 'on property' while I was there... Where's the hotel themed swag? There was a pier where come sort of ferry looked like it was supposed to dock. It wasn't in operation at the time of our visit (again because it was off season?) But that looked interesting   like maybe it would be another, cooler way to access the Park from the other islands...I get the distinct impression this was meant to be a toe in the water for Disney in China and that people were holding back so as not to outshine whatever will be opening in Shanghai soon. I am still hoping they expand this park and maybe add another. Until then, if I need a Disney fix in Asia I may have to make do with Hong Kong   unless I can put up with the longer plane ride to Tokyo... :)
