[2025 Beijing ] Travel Guide for Decepticon Coaster (Updated May)

Universal Studios in winter is full of atmosphere Remember to queue up in advance for admission at 9:30! When we arrived at around 9 o'clock, there were already many people queuing in front. Don't stop in front of the ticket gate to take pictures, it will waste time. Go straight to the ticket gate. Projects worth playing 👇 (see the App for waiting time) 1️⃣Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey🧹 Don't hesitate to go straight to the Harry Potter area when you enter the door. There are too many people in the morning. I have personally tested that there will be much fewer people after 17:00. If you want to visit it again, you can do so at this time! 2️⃣ Transformers Allspark Battle 🤖 recommend! I watched it twice, it's so cool 😭, and the length is also touching 3⃣️Minions Adventure Transform into a Minion Adventure, so cute, suitable for all ages 4⃣️Jurassic Adventure🦕 The dinosaurs are very realistic and immersive 5⃣️Hippogriff Flight Sunset Coaster, overlooking the castle, but there are a lot of queues at sunset.

You can also watch the orange sunset 🌄 ✨Every corner of the Harry Potter park is good for taking photos. If you want to take photos of the castle building and avoid the crowds, you can sit on the stone steps and shoot upwards. ✨You can take photos of the entire castle from the camera behind the Three Broomsticks Restaurant ✨You can take photos in any window of the Harry Potter park, and you can also avoid the crowds ⚠️There are really a lot of people queuing at the Three Broomsticks restaurant. The staff said it takes 90 minutes to get a table, but in reality it takes about half an hour. If you want to eat, you can still queue!

1️⃣ I pre-purchased two student tickets (¥850). I downloaded the Universal Beijing Resort app in advance. I also rented a headband and bag beforehand (¥65). Since I wasn't staying near the resort, I woke up at 6am to get ready and took the subway, arriving around 8:30am. The security check at the subway exit was already crowded, so I rushed to the globe for a few quick photos before heading to the ticket gate. (‼️Don't spend too much time taking pictures. I was relatively early, but those who arrived later had to queue outside.) 2️⃣ Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey > Three Broomsticks > Despicable Me Minion Mayhem > Jurassic World Adventure > Transformers: The Ride-3D > Decepticoaster > Lights, Camera, Action! I sprinted as soon as I entered the park (running is key!!). You can cut through the Minion Land shops to save time and head straight to Forbidden Journey. After that, Three Broomsticks was open, so I went straight there to take photos at 🅿️5 (if you're not interested in photos, queue for Flight of the Hippogriff). 🅿️6 is only accessible from the Three Broomsticks exit. After lunch, I took some photos in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter before heading to Minion Mayhem in Minion Land. Minion Land is a great spot for photos; 🅿️12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 are all there. After taking photos, there was a parade, but I skipped it and went to Jurassic World Adventure. On the way from there to Transformers, you can buy green apple purée at the entrance 🅿️11. Next, I queued for Transformers: The Ride-3D, followed by the Decepticoaster. The sun was setting as I queued for the Decepticoaster, so the view from the ride was stunning. It was a lot of fun! (‼️The Decepticoaster is quite scary, so don't force yourself if you're not up for it.) The wait time for each ride was at least 80 minutes. Finally, I went to Lights, Camera, Action! (short queues, great visuals, worth seeing). It was dark by the time I came out. After a long day of walking, I was exhausted, so I went back to Minion Land for a few more photos at 🅿️17 and 18 before leaving. Universal was amazing, and I'll definitely be back! ✌🏻

🌐 At Beijing Universal Studios, the Decepticon Roller Coaster (Transformers: The Ultimate 3D Battle) takes you into a high-tech world of Transformers. The 3D visual effects and dynamic simulation technology make you feel like a part of the battle, experiencing unprecedented excitement. 💨 Are you ready for a heart-pounding challenge? The roller coaster takes you through sharp turns and steep drops at lightning speed, with each moment of weightlessness boosting your adrenaline. 🎭 It's not just a roller coaster; it's an adventure fighting alongside the Transformers. Every turn and acceleration immerses you deeper into this thrilling battle. 🌈 The 3D effects and meticulously designed scenes make you feel like you're truly on the Transformers battlefield. Each visual impact makes you believe more that you are in an epic showdown with the Decepticons. 🛡️ Despite the roller coaster's impressive speed and thrill, safety is always the top priority. Universal Studios' strict safety measures ensure that every visitor can enjoy the excitement without any worries. 👫 If you're a fan of thrills and adventures, the Decepticon Roller Coaster is definitely your top choice. However, for those prone to motion sickness or sensitive to high-speed movements, it might be wise to think twice. ⏱️ As a star attraction at Universal Studios, the popularity of the Decepticon Roller Coaster is evident. To avoid long queues, it's recommended to plan your visit in advance or use a fast pass to make your experience smoother.

4.11 I visited Universal Studios, and although it was a weekday, there were still quite a few people. If you have the money, buying an Express Pass will enhance your experience. Overall, I found the attractions more thrilling than Disney's, which is more dreamy. The park's layout is very well done, including the restrooms 🚻 which are bubbling with charm 🫡. The main focus is on a Zen approach, without the pressure to complete all the attractions. One must give credit to the person who designed the queue lines 🤡. Who wouldn't be impressed? 📌 It's recommended to download the official app to check queue times and show schedules. 🕙 The park opens at 10 am, but many people queue up early. The park may open earlier depending on the number of people in line that day. I arrived at 9:30 am, quickly checked in at the globe, and the park opened around 9:50 that day. 📝 Travel Tips 1️⃣ Head straight to 📍Forbidden Journey first, as it's the park's most popular attraction. Play it first and the rest of the day will be more relaxed. Then, queue for the attractions with fewer people or the ones you most want to play. Don't follow other people's guides, as the number of visitors varies each day. 2️⃣ It's suggested to watch the 📍Super Silly Fun Land parade and, right as it ends, rush to the nearby Despicable Me Minion Mayhem to avoid queues. 3️⃣ The parade is worth watching and lively, but if you're not interested, you can take this opportunity to visit other attractions that usually have long queues. When I checked the app, all attractions were under a 15-minute wait. 🎢 Attraction Recommendations Forbidden Journey 👍👍, Transformers: The Ride 👍👍, Battle for the Allspark 👍👍, Despicable Me Minion Mayhem 👍, WaterWorld 👍, Universal's Superstar Parade, Universal's Cinematic Spectacular 👍 ❌ Skip Jurassic Park The Ride (the worst experience, with a 60min queue time comparable to Forbidden Journey, but it only lasted 30s, felt like nothing 😡) The Kung Fu Panda area is more for younger children Food 🍽️ Apple compote 🟰 Apple Fanta 👍 Minion Ice Cream 🍌 tastes great! 👍 Hammond's Restaurant Waited a few minutes for a scenic spot, the spaghetti and burgers ordered were very good 👍
