Opening of the Sixth Disneyland in the World in China

The massive entertainment company 'Disney' has opened its first Disneyland in mainland China, located in Shanghai. This is the sixth Disneyland in the world. Thousands of people in China waited in the rain for the opening of a park built on an area of nearly four square kilometers, on the outskirts of the megacity of Shanghai. The construction project for this Disneyland began in 2011, and it is named 'Magic Kingdom.' The total amount spent on building this amusement park is close to 5.5 billion dollars, which is considered a very large foreign investment in mainland China. This park also boasts the tallest castle in the Disneyland collection; the castles are recreations of those from films like 'Tron' and 'Pirates of the Caribbean.' According to reports, the park itself is larger than other Disneyland resorts built outside the United States. Two hotels, several restaurants, a theater, and a 390,000 square meter lake are among the other structures waiting for tourists at Disneyland Shanghai. The 'Nomura' group in Japan has predicted that this Disneyland will host around 15 million tourists in its first year. In this case, only Tokyo Disneyland will be able to rank higher in terms of visitor numbers than Shanghai. However, the opening of this Disneyland comes at a time when the central land is facing unprecedented economic problems. Before Shanghai, the Hong Kong region, one of the two special regions in China's divisions (which is outside the governance system of the People's Republic of China), had its own Disneyland. Paris also has a Disneyland. Two other magical amusement parks of Walt Disney are located in Florida and California.
