Fantasyland at Disney HK

OK, lets' continue my Disney adventure with the Fantasyland. Since its called fantasy, I supposed nothing of it is for real ... so, do not believe that you will meet your prince charming and live happily ever after OK!


Anyway, the main feature in the Fantasyland is of course the Sleeping Beauty Castle. Obviously this castle does not only represents the Sleeping Beauty story but the castle also represents Disneyland as a whole.

This castle is the logo for all Disney movies and cartoons and this castle will be the main backdrop for the Disneyland fireworks finale before the park closes. This is a preview of how the castle look at night. Just simply dreamlike. I will dedicate a whole entry for the firework because it is just totally too awesome.


In the Fantasyland, they have all the kiddo rides. Like for example this Mad Hatter Tea Cups. They also have the Dumbo elephant rides and Cinderella carousel but we skip that one. What is more interesting is two of the shows.

First, the Mickey's PhilharMagic. Its a 3D show in a cinema-like setting.


Since it's 3D show, you gotta put on the ugly spectacle like this. Its much better than the 3D show you get to experience in Universal Studio. I would rate it as 'Must Watch!'.


Next they have The Golden Mickeys Musical. Well, overall I think the musical is a bit too long and then the theatre is rather huge. So be prepared to start queing way before the show starts. There go your 1 hour.

The Golden Mickeys, Hong Kong Disneyland, Dec 2010
Actual duration : 30mins


Now what really sent me into a 'fantasy' mood is the 'Its a small world'.


OMG, I thought I have been transported into a world of dolls. It's so pretty and beautiful and happy.


So, what is this all about. OK, it may sounds a bit childish but its not. You climb into a boat and be prepared to sail in the most colourful and happiest cruise around the world ever. I know it sound like 'OMG so boring' but it's not. It's just such a happy happy ride.


Is it the most colourful and dreamlike place or what?


They also have another ride that is similar to "It's a small world", which is "The many adventures of Winnie the Pooh". I was a bit tired by the time I managed to catch this ride, so no pictures. But unless you have a kid that is 5 years and below, don't bother.
