I thought it would be a really fun exercise to put together a 1-day itinerary for how I would do each of the Disney parks if I only had 1 day. Following is how I would do the Shanghai Disney Resort.
As I hinted at in my Asia Trip Recap blog post, I definitely ran into some hiccups during my recent trip to all of the Disney theme parks in Asia. What I didn’t say is that the biggest hiccups came from my day at Shanghai Disney Resort. Just writing this down is making me wish I could go back in time and literally do this ENTIRE day differently. The only reason I’m sharing my experience at all is so other people can avoid the same pitfalls I encountered. And I’d also like to say that I had a completely different experience my first time visiting back in 2016, which you can read about here. But first let me start back at the beginning…
I absolutely LOVED my stay at the Toy Story Hotel in Shanghai Disneyland. I was only here for 2 nights but they were 2 fantastic nights! The hotel is pretty large which is great because it means you can usually get a room and it's a value hotel so it's pretty inexpensive (compared to other Disney resorts around the world, not for general hotel pricing in Shanghai).
I had the distinct honor and privilege of visiting Shanghai Disneyland in its very first year of opening. I was sent to Asia on a work related trip and it just so happened that my layover on the way home was through Shanghai. I was only there for a day and a half but it was one of the most magical day and a halves of my life.
