Shanghai Happy Valley: Spend a day enjoying over ten attractions—who can understand this kind of happiness!

Friends, do you get it or not! I originally thought Shanghai Happy Valley was just an ordinary amusement park, but once I went in, I was completely "captivated," hyped from morning till night, playing until my legs were weak but I didn’t want to leave! If you’re still wondering where to go this weekend, then you must mark down this super detailed Shanghai Happy Valley guide. I guarantee you’ll get great value for a little money and have a full day of fun! 🎫 Ticket Tips: Save Money and Worry Less There are many ways to buy tickets for Shanghai Happy Valley, but if you want the best deal, listen to me! The official channels often have promotions, for example, weekday tickets are much cheaper than weekend tickets. If you catch the presale tickets before holidays, the price is unbelievably low. Students don’t worry—bring your student ID for exclusive discounts, which basically means almost free! There are also family packages; if you’re going with your whole family, this is the best value. After buying tickets, remember to bind your ticket info on your phone in advance. You can just scan the code to enter, saving time from queuing to exchange tickets—super convenient! 🚗 Transportation Guide: Easy Access to the Happy Planet Shanghai Happy Valley is located at 888 Linhu Road, Songjiang District, Shanghai, with very convenient transportation. If you drive, just navigate directly to the Happy Valley parking lot, which is large enough so you don’t have to worry about parking spots. However, on weekends and holidays, traffic is heavy, so it’s recommended to leave early to avoid getting stuck at the entrance. If you take public transport, Line 9 of the subway to Sheshan Station is a great choice. There’s a free shuttle bus from the station directly to the park entrance, taking about 10 minutes—very thoughtful. Of course, you can also call a ride; it takes about half an hour from downtown, prices vary by distance, but it’s convenient and fast. 🎢 Thrilling Attractions Collection: Heart-Pounding Fun Valley Dragon Coaster: The "Boss" of Roller Coasters Once you enter the park, many people head straight to the Valley Dragon Coaster. This is one of Happy Valley’s signature attractions, 1200 meters long, with a top speed of 115 km/h! Sitting on the coaster, as the track rises and turns, your body is tightly pressed, alternating between centrifugal force and heavy gravity, making your heart almost jump out. I waited an hour to ride, but it was totally worth it! After getting off, I was still super hyped and took a long time to calm down. It’s recommended not to wear loose clothes when riding this, or the wind might blow them up and affect your experience. Giant Pendulum: Crazy 360-Degree Spins The Giant Pendulum is also a popular attraction at Happy Valley. It’s like a giant pendulum swinging back and forth in midair, reaching up to 120 degrees! Sitting on it as it rises and falls feels like you’re about to be thrown out—this kind of thrill is hard to describe. Plus, the pendulum spins 360 degrees, letting you experience centrifugal force from all angles. When riding this, remember to secure your valuables well, or they might easily fall off. Pirate Ship: Childhood Memories, Upgraded Thrills Everyone knows the Pirate Ship, but Happy Valley’s version is different. It swings wider and faster, and sitting on the ship as it moves up and down feels like being in the ocean, experiencing the waves’ impact. Especially when the ship reaches the highest point and plunges down, the feeling makes you scream uncontrollably. This attraction is suitable for the whole family to enjoy together, offering both thrills and bonding time. Roller Coasters: Collision of Speed and Passion Happy Valley has several types of roller coasters, such as Extreme Wind and Blue Moon Coaster. Extreme Wind is a vertical drop coaster, dropping vertically from 60 meters high, feeling like falling from the sky—extremely thrilling. Blue Moon Coaster is fast with many turns, letting you experience multiple accelerations and twists in a short time—super fun. If you love thrills, these coasters are a must-try. Rapid River Adventure: Cool and Thrilling On hot summer days, Rapid River Adventure is a great choice. Sitting on the boat, slowly rising to a high point before suddenly plunging down, splashing huge waves, soaking you completely, but the coolness and thrill are addictive. When riding this, remember to buy a raincoat in advance; the ones inside the park are expensive and of average quality. You can also bring a thicker raincoat yourself to avoid getting too wet. 🌃 Nighttime at Happy Valley: Romance and Passion Intertwined After a tiring day, don’t rush to leave at night—Happy Valley is just as exciting after dark. Recently, maybe because of a music festival, the night view is so beautiful it feels like a dream world. Colorful lights illuminate the entire park, like entering a fairy tale. There’s also a street performance area with various shows and interactive activities. A blonde girl dances amazingly, every move full of energy, making everyone want to dance along. There are many handsome guys and beautiful girls around, creating a lively atmosphere. At night, there are also spectacular shows with professional performers, including singing, dancing, acrobatics, and more, guaranteed to delight your eyes. 🍔 Food Guide: Recharge to Keep the Fun Going After playing all day, your stomach will definitely be growling. Happy Valley offers a variety of food to satisfy different tastes. If you like snacks, try the park’s grilled sausages and fried chicken cutlets—they taste pretty good. For full meals, the park has restaurants serving Chinese and Western dishes. I recommend trying the park’s burgers—the buns are soft, the patties juicy, paired with fries and cola, it’s a perfect meal. However, food prices inside the park are relatively high, so choose according to your budget. 💡 Tips for a Perfect Trip 1. Wear comfortable shoes because the park is large and you’ll walk a lot. 2. Check the weather forecast in advance; if it’s sunny, remember to apply sunscreen; if it rains, bring rain gear. 3. Bring some snacks and water yourself, as prices inside the park are expensive. 4. Each attraction has height and weight restrictions; parents with kids should check these in advance. 5. Night show times and locations may change; after entering, grab a park map and show schedule. Shanghai Happy Valley is truly a treasure amusement park. Whether it’s thrilling rides, exciting performances, or delicious food, it will let you have an unforgettable holiday. If you’re still hesitating whether to go, I’ll tell you—don’t wait, quickly invite your friends and family to experience this happiness together! I believe you’ll definitely fall in love with this place!
