Travel Tips
1. As there may be crowds in the park, how to save time will be a top concern. Arrange your schedule reasonably. It's wise to download an official APP beforehand so as to keep attention on the time needed for lining up for an attraction. A Fastpass ticket will help you a lot to save time. If possible, go there on weekdays when there are fewer visitors.
2. Wear comfortable sneakers because you need to walk a lot during the day.
3. Visitors older than 16 are not allowed to wear costumes of characters in cartoons, movies and comics.
4. Prohibited items include selfie sticks, large tripods, folding chairs and luggage over the size of 56cm x 36cm x 23cm. Animals are not allowed to enter, excluding guide dogs.
5. At the main entrance there are wheelchair and pram rental stations. The rent is CNY 50 one day for a pram and CNY 40 for a wheelchair.
6. The park provides a left luggage service at the Wonderful Memory House near the entrance.

We are due to visit Disneyland in August and were wondering what time the park opened and closed as we are trying to work out which of our 3 days in the city would be best spent in Disneyland.
Thanks
