Hong Kong Disneyland was the second Disneyland park to be built in Asia and has since become the most visited theme park in Hong Kong, thanks to their location-exclusive experiences.
So, if there's a place to stop by during your first time in Hong Kong, this theme park is a must see! How? Book a night at one of Hong Kong Disneyland Resort's [keyword variation: disneyland resort hong kong] accommodations for an extra magical trip.
Fun Fact: Disney actually considered the rules of feng shui when designing and building the park!
Can you finish Hong Kong Disneyland in one day?

Technically, you could. Day trips are common for theme parks, which is why it's common practice to arrive as early as possible to have more time at the park, but this doesn't mean the one-day trip is always successful.
There are eight themed areas in Hong Kong Disneyland, some of which may resemble the American Disneyland park, but there are also some unique attractions that you won't wanna miss out on—like the newly-opened World of Frozen.
With so many shows and rides to discover, one day at the Hong Kong Disneyland Resort may not be enough. Here are some pros and cons of day trips to help you decide:
Pro: Save on tickets
Since you'll just be visiting for a day, you'd only be purchasing a one-day ticket and a round-trip ticket or ride to and from your accommodation.
Pro: More time for Hong Kong
Allotting just a day for Hong Kong Disneyland means you'll have more time to explore even more HK attractions on the rest of your trip.
Con: Limited rides and shows
Even if you arrive at the park as soon as it opens, others probably have the same idea. Long queues are inevitable, especially during peak seasons and weekends, which are the most convenient days to visit because there isn't any work or school.
Being limited to a day at Disneyland means being limited to a certain amount of rides unless you add Priority Access to your ticket, which will allow you to skip a few lines at an extra cost. You also wouldn't have time to catch all the shows and parades while trying all the rides in just one day. Make sure to take into account queues at restaurants, stores, and meet and greets!
Con: Always rushing
Rushing from one queue to another can make you forget to stop and smell the flowers. A two-day pass will allow you to leisurely stroll around the park, try the snacks, and take as many pics as possible. Skip the hassle of pre-planning and running to stay on schedule, and just take in the magic!
Con: Missing out on Hong Kong Disneyland hotels
Just one day at the park may not be enough for a night at one of the Hong Kong Disneyland hotels to be worth it. This means you'll be missing out on some special perks since the hotels make multi-day visits more convenient, have more magical moments, and help your family create unforgettable memories.
