I visited Universal Orlando Resort with my daughter, and we had an unforgettable time together! The attractions were exciting, the atmosphere was amazing, and the Harry Potter areas were absolutely magical. Some queues were quite long, but the experience was worth it. We enjoyed every moment and made wonderful memories together. A fantastic place for a mother-daughter trip! Highly recommended!

So much construction almost no animals out. The ones that were out looked like they needed help. Habitat way to small for many. They should honestly be reported probably. Not worth the money. Go to Tampa zoo instead.

Another great trip to this park. Lots of variety to interest all members of the family. My favourites were E.T.Adventure & Minion Mayhem. Lots of opportunities to see your favourite characters too. Interaction with Shrek & Donkey adds a fun element to your day.

The park was the kids' favorite and most anticipated. We flew to Orlando specifically for it and, like special forces, walked at least 20,000 steps a day. They were very happy and got to experience all the attractions they wanted to do, some even twice. It's quite different from the North Loop in many ways.

Universal Studios' newly opened park is divided into four areas: Harry Potter, Mario, How to Train Your Dragon, and Dark Fantasy. Hotels staying at Universal Studios can enter the park early, but Express Passes require a separate ticket. The Ministry of Magic in Harry Potter and the broken-track roller coaster in Mario are the most popular attractions; it's recommended to rush in at the top of the gates with an Express Pass. The Ministry of Magic area is absolutely stunning, a 1:1 recreation of the scene. The smoke effects upon entering the Ministry of Magic, and the ride itself, are all worth making a special trip for. The Mario area is similar to the one in Osaka; those who haven't ridden it should definitely experience it, while those who have can consider it after Harry Potter. The Dark Fantasy and How to Train Your Dragon areas feature less mainstream IPs. The roller coaster in the How to Train Your Dragon area is worth trying, and the food in the park is more suited to Chinese tastes. Overall, it's a very exciting park and worth spending a whole day exploring.

These state parks in the area are modest but do feature unique geological beauty in the form of natural springs and rivers.

Ocean Park is quite fun for elementary school students, but the weather is just too hot. All the rides and attractions are outdoors, and apart from the song and dance show, the animal shows are also outdoors. It's just too hot.
