Necessary APP
Before your trip, please download the official APP of Shanghai Disneyland Resort.You can not only know the queuing time of various entertainment facilities, the exact schedule of program performances, the location of restaurants/shops/service centers/toilets/drinking water and so on. In time, you will also have to buy big tickets and book FP Fastpasses online (at present, the offline queuing machines for booking Fastpasses are basically not used anymore, so the APP is a must).
Tips:
1. Download the software in advance before the trip, the actual operation to feel the operation of the various pages and functions, so as not to miss the opportunity to find the interface on the site (especially FP reservations, may miss some items for a second).
2. Understand the time of the show you want to see in the park in the near future, and roughly plan your itinerary.
Tour suitable season
If conditions permit, please avoid domestic and international holidays, weekends, summer vacation from mid-June to early September (heavy crowds, coupled with the high temperature of 30, really tiring); of course, there are many people all year round, this mental preparation is a must.
Tip:
Tuesdays through Thursdays in late fall through winter are a good choice.
Suggested Entry Times
Try to catch the first subway ride. When you get off the subway, you still have to walk 500 or 600 meters. Wait in line until security checks begin around 8:00-8:30 (opening hours are adjusted according to the season and crowds, usually between 8:00-9:00; however, the lines are long in peak season, so it's good to get there early for the later events), and then sign in.
Because FPExpressPass has a limited number of reservations per day, groups of tourists/parents and such usually come in after 10:00, so if you come in late, you may miss out on the day's classic programs.
Tips:
1. Strive to arrive before 7:30 to get in line
2. Aim to enter the park at 9:00
Transportation
(1), Metro: Get off at Disney Station on Line 11 (Disney direction).
If you need to transfer to the subway, it is recommended that you download MetroMetropolisAPP before traveling to get real-time information about the timetable of each subway station.

Accommodation
Shanghai Disneyland belongs to:
Shanghai Disneyland has two themed hotels (both located outside the park not far away), which are Shanghai Disneyland Hotel (average price 1000-5000 RMB/room/night) and Toy Story Hotel (average price 800-2000 RMB/room/night). All the interiors and layouts of the hotels are related to this theme, which can be very immersive (instantly feeling high and stuff). The hotel will also offer some discounted services for free, such as discounted check-in/discounted FP/free parking and so on. If it's cost-effective, you have to consider it according to your own financial base~
"Ultimate Bliss Soup" Kawartha Spa Pavilion:
I stumbled upon this way of experiencing a hot spring paradise, and it feels good, so I'm here to recommend it to you. The "Joy Soup" is a well-known and popular chain of hot spring hotels in Shanghai (you can take a bath/steam/swim/play indoor games/massage, etc.), and it just so happens that you can stay at the Kawartha branch. The hotel is open until two o'clock the next day (some of the branches are closed), and it just so happens that the Kawartha branch is available. So if you purchase a lodging package, you can include: a bed and breakfast (available in some seasons), a 1-day bath voucher, and a free shuttle to/from Disneyland. The price will vary depending on the room type and season, but usually tops out around 600 or 700. It's fantastic to get tired of going to Disney on the first day and relax with a bubble bath the next day.
Along Metro Line 1:
Many different types of hotels are built near many of the locations that lead to Dis
Dining
Disney's dining offerings are still plentiful, and cover: Chinese Covered Dinners (Mickey's Guys Yummy Market/Tribal Banquet Room), Pastries (Mickey's Guys Yummy Market/Royal Banquet Restaurant), Lamb Skewers (Wandering Moon Restaurant ); Western Lite (Toy Box Banquet Plaza/Tribal Feast Hall), Burgers (Star Terrace Catering), Pizza (Toy Box Banquet Plaza), BBQ (Barbosa Grill), and Snacks & Desserts (Curbside). If you don't care too much about restaurants or dining categories, you can eat and drink in your area with little difference in all aspects of the environment.
Tips:
The food is basically medium to high in flavor, but the price per person is relatively high, [on average, $70/person/meal].
