One of Hong Kong Disneyland's most exciting rides would be the remarkable Hyperspace Mountain. You will find that this indoor ride is situated at Tomorrowland and is one of the theme park's outstanding attractions. Featuring a storyline from Star Wars, this rapid rollercoaster will take you on a thrilling journey with numerous tight loops and turns. On your way, you will also have to evade the blaster shots exchanged between Imperial and rebel fighters.
Kids who love Star Wars are sure to be enthralled by the opportunity to engage themselves in Jedi training with almost all the features you will see in the movies. Young visitors will have the chance to put on Jedi robes, grab a lightsaber and get on the stage as they take part in a miniature performance. They will even have the chance to spar with none other than the mighty Darth Vader! To take part in this experience, you should first enrol at the start of the day.
Another novel feature of the park would be the intriguing Iron Man Experience which would entrance any visitor irrespective of whether they happen to be fans of the iconic superhero or not. At this stationary ride, you will don 3D glasses and join Iron Man as he flies around the city of Hong Kong. As you might expect, you will encounter rapid manoeuvres, exciting drops and thrilling sensory effects. You will also have the chance to take photographs at the nearby Stark Expo exhibition hall where you could find Iron Man suits, gadgets and memorabilia as well.
A comparatively new feature of the theme park, this exhilarating ride will meet the expectations of those who seek thrills. You will find that Big Grizzly offers an array of exciting dips, twists, simulated explosions and even an unexpected backward reverse drop for good measure! A choice of accommodation to consider from which you could easily visit Hong Kong Disneyland and enjoy such rides would be Park Hotel Hong Kong; it may be regarded as a pleasingly located Kowloon hotel in Hong Kong ideal for family holidays.
At Hong Kong Disneyland's Animation Academy, you will have the chance to become an amateur Disney animation artist as you learn how to go about drawing a Disney animated character. You will only need 20 minutes to learn the ropes of illustrating a Disney character of your choice. Although these classes are conducted in Cantonese, they will still be a rewarding experience for foreign visitors. You will find this retro-style animation studio at the theme park's Main Street, USA.
The intriguing Mystic Manor will be another delight for the thrill seeker; it provides you with the opportunity to get onto a carriage and make your way through the scary mansion as its unusual artefacts gain a life of their own. Sculptures, paintings and weapons all come alive with the experience enhanced by sound and air effects. An animatronic monkey called Albert will even accompany you as you make your way through the mansion!
