Disneyland in Hong Kong welcomed its first guests on September 12, 2005. Its debut marked a significant milestone in the tourism industry, as Disney brought its premier amusement park to an Asian country for the first time.
Prior to its construction, Disneyland made conscious efforts to address cultural and traditional conflicts with the Chinese heritage in the design of its entertainment zones. Hence, Hong Kong Disneyland harmoniously blends Chinese and Western cultures in its architectural style.
