Arriving early avoids peak hours and minimizes waiting time; scanning a QR code for entry is incredibly convenient. Staff are friendly, the park is clean and tidy, and the signage is clear. The evening lights create a wonderful atmosphere, and the parade is lively and perfect for photos.
Me encanta ir a Happy Valley, es mi tercera vez aquí en Shanghai. La montaña rusa roja, la de madera y la azul son las mejores. Poca gente comparado con otros parques. Nos hicimos 14 juegos, excelente experiencia! La comida es accesible comimos por 40 yuanes. Super recomendado!

The wonderful performances and parade teams make you feel like you are in a grand party, enjoying the joy and passion. In short, Shanghai Happy Valley is a place full of joy and excitement. Whether you want to find excitement or want to relax, it is an excellent choice.
Taking advantage of the holiday time, I went to the Shanghai Happy Valley that I had been longing for for a long time with my friends. We calculated the time and arrived on time at 9:30. However, the entertainment projects are generally still undergoing routine maintenance and inspection at this time, so you can arrive around 10 o'clock. The first stop is the big pendulum, with a speed + weightlessness of 110km/h, which can reach the height of 15 floors. It feels like being thrown into the sky, and the brain feels like it is about to be thrown out. The second stop is the top of the mountain. The highest point is 65 meters high and the nearly vertical descent is not too exciting. After that, it suddenly makes a big turn at 115km/h, and then it is the second nearly vertical drop. People run in front and souls chase behind. The third stop is the pirate ship. At least I don’t feel it’s exciting, but there is still a feeling of free fall. It is recommended to sit on the bow. The fourth stop is the Valley Wood Dragon, which has more than 10 times of zero gravity in space. It is 1,165 meters long and 33 meters above the ground at its highest point. It is shaking all the way, which is extremely thrilling. The fifth stop, the extreme whirlwind, on the 18-meter-high "windmill", flipped, twisted, and swung 360°. I had just finished my meal, and my stomach was churning again after I came down. It is recommended not to eat too much when playing these exciting projects. The sixth stop, the mine adventure, is also a roller coaster, but the ups and downs are large, and it keeps flipping. It is recommended to experience it. The seventh stop, the ocean adventure, is also a suspended roller coaster, which is not as exciting as other roller coasters. The eighth stop, the Blue Moon Flying Car, is a high-speed speed of 110 kilometers per hour, a 30-meter high dive, and a 2-second acceleration, which is even better than the top of the wind. Then I drove a kart for a while. People who can't drive can also play it. It is very simple. Drifting through the corners all the way is so exciting. Attached is a selfie at the start. Then we experienced various slightly more casual projects, such as bumper cars, swing umbrellas, Hercules, Treasure Island, Hurricane Bay, etc. It is recommended to go to Wonderland: Crossing 30 degrees north latitude, and there is also a 6D virtual roller coaster experience, which is particularly shocking. Before leaving, we played the rapids. There are raincoats for sale at the gate, 5 to 15 yuan each. It is not recommended to buy them because the quality is too poor. Some are sold inside the park, and the quality is quite good (I bought one outside and was cheated. The raincoat was torn and then I got wet). In summary, after buying the ticket, basically the projects inside are free, and you can queue up directly to play. The brave can play repeatedly. The paid projects are bungee jumping and zipline (280 yuan per person). Karting is 90 yuan for 5 minutes. You need to add 40 yuan to take photos and videos. There is also a snow play project for 45 yuan per person. , I don’t know about the others. We only played karts. We went there mainly for excitement, and did some research before coming. The exciting projects include (Top Glory, Mine Adventure, Blue Moon Flying Car, Big Pendulum, Valley Wood Dragon, Rapids), etc. I recommend these projects to be played later, so you can arrange your time well, otherwise you will feel that the later projects are not interesting. The opening hours are from 9:30 am to 8:30 pm. Friends who want to go can refer to it. In fact, it is impossible to experience all the projects in one day, so you have to go to the theme.
I applied for a Happy Valley family card before the summer vacation. During the summer vacation, my family and I went to Happy Valley three times. Today is the last time for my child to go to Happy Valley before school starts. We have played all the classic projects in Happy Valley! I will also give you a comprehensive introduction to Happy Valley. 1: It is more suitable for primary and middle school students. Many projects have height requirements. For example, several roller coasters and Tiandi Shuangxiong have height limits ranging from 130 to 140, which are not suitable for children under six years old. 2: If you are from Shanghai and are a family of three, it is most cost-effective to apply for a family annual card. It is convenient to drive here and park. As long as you apply for an annual card, you can enter by scanning your face, and you don’t have to play too late every time. 3: The ranking of the excitement of Happy Valley projects ~ Gu Mu Youlong, Big Pendulum, Jueding Xiongfeng, Tiandi Shuangxiong, Blue Moon Flying Car, Mine Adventure, Rapids, Gu Mu Youlong ~ The whole journey is long and dangerous, and the curves are sharp and fast and one after another, which always keeps you highly nervous, and you almost don’t have time to breathe throughout the whole journey. The excitement of the Big Pendulum lies in the high swing and the rotation at the highest point. It is not like a roller coaster, which is only different in the degree of weightlessness. It tests the extreme tolerance of your heart and lungs, but you don't feel dizzy. However, the Big Pendulum requires you to overcome both fear of heights and fear of dizziness, so even boys scream constantly; The excitement of the Peak lies in the two rapid falls at 90-degree angles, and it stops for a few seconds before the fall to deliberately create a sense of panic, but in fact, the excitement when you really sit on it is obviously not as good as Gu Mu You Long and the Big Pendulum; The Twin Heroes of Heaven and Earth is the momentary feeling of weightlessness, but due to the time period, no obvious excitement is felt , the high score lies in making you feel like flying in an instant; the stimulation of Blue Moon Coaster is too different from that of Gu Mu Yu Long, and it is not much different from Jue Ding Xiong Feng, but the speed is fast. However, due to the small drop and the large curvature of the curve, the stimulation is not enough, which is only slightly better than Mine Adventure; Mine Adventure is equivalent to a smaller version of Gu Mu Yu Long, and the characteristics are similar, that is, there are many distance sections throughout the whole process. In fact, rapids has little to do with stimulation. The main preparation is how to adjust the raincoat to the best water-blocking position at the moment of falling. Many people are almost soaked when wearing raincoats, while some people are almost not wet, which tests your wisdom in this regard; these are the must-play projects in Happy Valley, and many other projects are more about testing your ability to resist dizziness. The stimulation is not strong, so I don’t actively recommend them based on everyone’s mood. The more casual ones~ Treasure Island, carousel, flying chair, canyon rafting, etc. are suitable for all ages, and it’s not bad to intersperse between the exciting projects! There are a few more suggestions. 1. Try to get an annual pass as it is much more cost-effective. For those who get an annual pass, try to play only 2-3 exciting projects each time. If you play them all at once, not only will there be no mystery next time, but you will also be prone to collapse, which is not good for your body. The recommended combinations are Gu Mu You Long + Rapids Brave, Jue Ding Xiong Feng + Tian Di Shuang Xiong + Mine Adventure, Big Pendulum + Blue Moon Coaster. 2. Among the roller coasters, try to play the latter stimulating ones - Blue Moon Coaster and Mine Adventure first. If you play Gu Mu You Long and Tian Di Shuang Xiong first, you will feel that the first two are average. 3. Try to bring your own raincoat. We all brought our own, so it is convenient to bring it back after use. Disposable raincoats are poorly waterproof and not environmentally friendly. I think it is okay to go canyon rafting without wearing a raincoat.
Came here twice with my baby. Except bungee jumping and Tiandi Shuangxiong, I played all the others. There were a lot of people during the holidays. I went for the Blue Moon Coaster. I personally feel that the 40-second speed level is great. The first one was extremely exciting. Maybe it was because I was in the last row, so it didn’t feel that exciting. I was just laughing during the process. My daughter is really brave. I didn’t scream at all the projects. I personally feel that the Hurricane Bay area project is very interesting. I screamed several times, but the four major and three-passing cars didn’t scream. I played for a whole day. I feel that I am almost at retirement age, but my mentality is also great. I mixed with young partners and there was no conflict at all. Hahahaha, the Happy Valley project is really good and worth going. Many projects are scary, but in fact, they are nothing special after experiencing them! Be brave to face them!
It happened to be Halloween season, so I didn't take many photos of the park's decorations. The NPCs walking on the road will scare you, and then you can ask them for candy, and if they have it, they will give it to you. The Internet celebrity ghost schoolboy is really handsome, and Gu Muyoulong is really exciting. I played all the projects, and only went to the alternate dimension in the haunted house 😂 I don't dare to go to other places
