To avoid the entrance line, we arrived at 11 a.m. It was very crowded in August, especially for the Harry Potter Broomstick, but it was worth it. There are several water stations set up in the maze of lines for the rides where you can fill your own water bottle. In short, this place is a MUST-Visit!

I wouldn't recommend visiting in the summer; the lines are unrealistic, up to 185 minutes long. The entrance line is 60-80 minutes. I rode three rides in one day, and the Harry Potter zone is really cool, but the crowds are Chinese and it seems like the number of fans is completely uncontrollable. We were there on August 18th, and some friends were there on August 31st—the lines were down to 15-20 minutes.

The hotel offered early access an hour before the official opening, which was very helpful. My husband and I got in early and immediately rushed to the Harry Potter zone. The experience was worth the entire flight. It was incredible, we loved it, especially the flight to get the Snitch! The other zones are also very interesting; 12 hours of walking and aching feet are definitely worth it! The long, snake-like entrances make the queues feel minimal; you're constantly moving and don't feel like you're waiting. My advice: get a ticket on a weekday, an hour before the hotel's official opening. This will be enough to avoid long queues and make it through everything. Fast track entry isn't necessary.

The best day in Beijing! My husband and I went on September 3rd, and it was a fantastic day! So many memories. The coolest thing, of course, was the roller coaster—it was truly amazing! The speed, the loops, the thrills were off the charts. But the park isn't just for thrill-seekers: there are so many rides, there's plenty of room to roam. It's very convenient that CITYWALK is located outside the park—you can stroll around freely, which is exactly what we did on September 2nd. It's funny how the selection of shops partly overlaps with what's inside, but each one has its own unique features and differences—a pleasant variety. We went to a show—yes, they sing and speak Chinese, but the production was so vibrant, costumed, and spectacular that the language didn't interfere at all. It was beautiful! As for the food, the selection was huge! The most surprising thing was that there were a lot of people, but it didn't spoil the mood at all! We hardly stood in lines: 10-30 minutes at most, and the line moved so quickly you didn't even have time to get tired. Thanks for the experience!
