Our Best Shanghai Disneyland Trip Planning Articles
Shanghai Disneyland is the newest Disney Park that houses a couple of the most technologically advanced attractions — Pirates of the Caribbean & TRON. It’s also home to the biggest Disney castle to date, the Enchanted Storybook Castle.
Since the park hasn’t been around as long as the others (such as Hong Kong Disneyland & Tokyo Disney Resort), the amount of trip planning information isn’t as vast as other parks. With this Park, in particular, I recommend a bit of research before your trip.
I’ve put together an updated list of our best trip planning articles. Make sure to bookmark this page as I’ll update it with new articles. As a bonus, I’ve included select podcast episodes and trip reports on Shanghai Disneyland!

Play
Even with one park, there’s a bit to keep yourself occupied for the entire day. I mean, you could ride TRON all day if you wanted to (I may have ridden it too many times to count).

Trip Reports
One of my favourite ways to plan my trip is to read about experiences. So, that’s why I love writing trip reports for each of our trips. In hopes, you’ll learn from my number of mistakes.
