Disney on Parade is a daytime parade of the Hong Kong Disneyland theme park, featuring old and new cartoon characters like Mickey, Donald, Snow White, Cinderella, Alice (in Wonderland), The Little Mermaid, Buzz Lightyear and Woody from Toy Story etc.
October, the Halloween month… Disneyland was decorated with all the ‘creepy’ stuff as well…
Hong Kong Disneyland is located on a reclaimed land in Lantau Island and opened to visitors since September 2005. The theme park is part of Disneyland Resort which also consist of 2 hotels and the Inspiration Lake Recreation Centre.
Disneyland was the highlight of our Hong Kong tour. My eldest sister was the only one who had visited a Disney theme park (Tokyo’s Disneyland) prior to this visit, so it should be a wonderful experience especially for my 2-year-old niece.
The theme park opened on 10am; we got there a bit earlier via a shuttle bus from Hollywood Hotel, which is just minutes away from the theme park.
Ocean Park Hong Kong (香港海洋公園) was opened in 1977 and located at the south of Hong Kong Island. The park is easily accessible with public transportation… we went there by bus from the Star Ferry’s Central Pier on our 2nd day in Hong Kong.
It was a weekend, and mainland China was celebration their week long holiday to celebrate National Day… so the park was really crowded.
