Regarding Beijing Universal Studios, there are a lot of reviews and guides on the Internet. I believe everyone has read a lot of them.
As an ordinary melon-eating crowd, I also went to Beijing Huanying during the internal test operation, and spent a whole day brushing up all the rides (except some performances). I only use the push code of this article to post some of my real feelings. I hope that friends who have not been to Universal Studios can get some dry goods in this article. Those who have just visited, I hope you are happy and can find some sympathy.
After a quick glance at this article, you can get: my consumption & play experience, souvenirs worth buying, and some sincere suggestions from my heart. Let me first report to you about the consumer experience:
On the day of trial operation, 8,000 people entered the park. I entered at about 8:00 and left at 8:00. After 12 hours and 2w+ steps, I completed seven theme parks, namely: Transformers, Kung Fu Panda, Minions, Futurama, Hollywood, Harry Potter and Jurassic World. Among them, I used the Decepticon roller coaster three times and Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey twice.
No matter how dark the Internet is, the feeling after entering the park is still "really fragrant". I believe that a giant immersive amusement park like Huanying can bring you all-round happiness, regardless of age or gender.
It is difficult to find a second park that allows everyone to ride roller coasters large and small, fast or slow, in such a short period of time, mixed with an immersive movie-watching experience. In addition to walking and resting all day long, I hang in the sky.
Of course, you also need to have a friend who is fully immersed in the game. Her exclamation and shouting may help you quickly enter the scene, and the sense of immersion will be full. Perhaps the secret of human happiness is to seek stimulation~
The picture comes from the Internet
I think the park planning of Universal Studios is still very reasonable. No matter whether you are walking forward or backward, basically one park is relatively tense, and you have been concentrated on checking in and playing, while one park is relatively relaxed and you can have a good rest. Here I will focus on two of my favorite parks:
01
Welcome to Transformers Base
In the whole ring shadow, my favorite area is not Harry Potter, nor the little yellow man, but the Transformers area. There is no other reason, just because there is a Decepticon roller coaster here. First picture:
You can feel how scary just by looking at the picture, right? The first thing I saw when I entered the park that day was the Decepticon roller coaster. When the sound effect car started, I regretted it so much! In just 4.5 seconds, the car accelerates from a standstill to a speed of 104 kilometers per hour, going straight and diving for a while, and flipping upside down for a while. For the entire 90 seconds, I was crying and howling, so that at the end, the little girl sitting next to me couldn't help but touch my hand as a sign of comfort.
After brushing the first item, the whole person is completely relaxed and enters the atmosphere of the paradise. When I swiped for the second time, I was prepared in my heart, and I didn't close my eyes the whole time. With the jubilant explosion of music, the Decepticons set off again, and I returned to the happy planet again. Reminder: Sitting in the first row can have an excellent view, but the queue time is longer, and the last row is more exciting, you can choose according to your needs.
Another must-experience ride in the Transformers area is the battle for the source of fire. I have also played a similar project in Universal Studios Singapore. You must know that this is also the most popular project in Singapore Universal Studios. I bought FP for it. It is a 4D immersive viewing experience, allowing all tourists to fight side by side with Bumblebee's companions. Because the animation is too realistic, my companion who picked it up from the Decepticons has been exclaiming that Optimus Prime is so handsome, and the Bumblebee is coming to save people, it is too immersive.
There is also a Bumblebee gyro machine in this area, you will know it when you sit on it, it is a spinning cup! Although it feels a little immature, it is still very happy to watch the bumblebee who is forced to open business, sitting in the cup and being thrown around. The only regret in this area is that I didn't see the "social bull B syndrome" talking about Megatron, and lost the traffic password so sad.
02
Big Hogwarts Alumni Meet and Greet
If you can see your meal partner, Ms. Zhang, come to Harry Potter for two rounds even when you eat every day, you will know how popular the Harry Potter IP is.
The entire Harry Potter park is the place with the highest human appearance (and the most crowded place) in Beijing Huanying. As soon as you enter the park, you can see black robes all over the street, occasionally mixed with two or three JK college styles. To put it bluntly, a glass of butterbeer was spilled, and 9 sisters were poured, all of them were glamorous wizards with full makeup, and you were the only Muggle who was dressed comfortably.
The wizarding world is 100% restored, so items that are not in the novel will not appear here. You can meet Myrtle when you go to the toilet, and the stall with the longest queue is selling butter beer. The station master of Nine and Three Quarters Station is waiting for you to take a group photo, and you can also see the performance of the Frog Choir at the door.
To sum up, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey is Harry Potter taking you to sit on a broom to play Quidditch and chase the Golden Snitch. The 4D immersive viewing effect is very realistic. Quite fun. Encountered some black magic on the way, Harry rescued you all the way, and Malfoy would call you a Muggle.
Some people think this project is a bit dizzy, but to be honest, the queuing area here is like a snake-eating route. It goes around all the way, and it starts to get dizzy before reaching the castle. Here I want to remind everyone that you must not leave your mobile phone, because there are so many details worth taking pictures from queuing to admission, so that I brought my mobile phone for the second brush and stayed in the queuing area for a long time.
The mandrake in the flower room in the queue area, the Hogwarts architects can be seen as soon as you enter the castle, the phoenix entrance of the principal's office, the portrait in the stairwell of the castle (it still moves), Dumbledore's office, breaking through with singing The Fat Lady at the bar, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class (the trio will appear here, and the easter egg I encountered was snow), and finally the sorting hat before the entry of the project... I really kept exclaiming, too Restored!
Opposite the taboo tour is Eagle Horse Flying, which is a little too peaceful, and it ends after a turn, and it is a project that does not matter if you don’t play. When I later passed under the project, a group of people drove past me without even making a sound. Of course, compared with all the roller coaster projects of Beijing Huanying and the Decepticons, I feel: emm, just so so.
The most popular part of the entire Harry Potter area is the Chinese language of foreign staff, which is emphatically reflected in Ollivander's House of Wands. I couldn't understand the old man when he spoke Chinese, but I understood when he spoke English, and realized that he was speaking Chinese just now. Ollivander will choose a lucky person to interact on stage. To be selected, you must first dress like a Hogwarts wizard. As a reminder, Ollivander will choose children first, so if you are eager to interact on stage, you can avoid it when you are queuing.

Some areas where you can rest your feet
There is no doubt that the cutest and most popular place in Huanying is Minion Paradise. As soon as you enter this area, you will naturally relax when you see the candy-colored blocks and all kinds of cute minions. This area is more suitable for parent-child families, and all projects are relatively young. Big friends can take more good-looking photos here.
The Kung Fu Panda area reflects foreigners' appreciation of Chinese culture, but in fact I quite like this place, the saturation of the scene is not as high as in the photos. This is a fully indoor area, without the sun and rain, and the activities are easy to play, just enough for everyone to rest their feet.
When I went to Huanying, the Hollywood area didn’t focus on playing. There are many movies here, but I don’t focus on it. The roller coaster of Jurassic World Flying Jurassic has not yet opened, so I didn’t miss this area too much. I only played Jurassic Adventure, and the dinosaurs were still very realistic. Flying over the Jurassic roller coaster I watched the video on Xiaohongshu, and it was quite fun to watch.
The performances of the future water world are also very exciting, and they are basically full, so you have to go there in advance. There are also different colors for the positions in the field, blue is wet, green is half wet, and red is not wet.
Finally, there is a parade of floats, following the earthy northeast wind parade, just be High together! It's completely supported by the beauty of the young lady!

The price level you care about
Whether it's eating or surroundings, I think Huanying is much more conscientious than Disney. Because I patronize and play all day, I don't feel very hungry. In fact, I didn't eat anything, but everything I ate was delicious! It is not recommended to eat too much here. After all, there are too many roller coasters, fast or slow, and it is easy to feel uncomfortable if you eat too much.
The 75 yuan smoked turkey leg is very big, plus a 35 yuan satay chicken skewer, enough for the girls for lunch.
A glass of butter beer is 50 yuan, and you can also choose a smoothie and a version with a commemorative glass.
The minion popsicles are cute in shape, 40 yuan/piece, it melts quickly, remember to take a group photo with Paipai after buying it!
As for souvenirs, I have to say that Universal Studios really needs "money ability". At the end of the day, it only cost 167 yuan to eat, but it cost nearly 1,000 yuan to buy, buy, buy, and buy a lot for friends remotely. There is also a concept if you buy too much. Let’s briefly summarize: key chains range from 69 yuan to 89 yuan, dolls range from 119 yuan to 249 yuan, luggage tags are around 89 yuan, and refrigerator magnets are only available in the Minions area, 89 to 119 Yuan varies.
Here are some souvenirs that I think are worth buying:
There are unique souvenir shops in each area, and you can look for them patiently. If you are lazy, you can finally go to the largest souvenir shop at the door to purchase, and you will never leave empty-handed.

Finally, I sincerely offer some suggestions
1. Be sure to buy U-Speed
Thinking about how cool I was playing, a large part of the reason was because I didn't line up. Universal Studios without queuing is really super fragrant. Yousutong is divided into two types: 300 yuan for a single time and 400 yuan for unlimited times. If you want to finish Huanying within a day, a single time is actually enough. If you are an experienced roller coaster enthusiast and want to experience the Decepticon and Forbidden Journey a few more times, then go directly to the unlimited speed pass!
There is also a VIP experience of 1,200 yuan per person, which is actually quite worthwhile, including tickets + fast entry to the park + Yousutong + full exclusive tour guide + exclusive viewing seats + part of the meal. You must know that I bought a FP alone at Universal Studios Singapore, which cost 1,000 yuan. After spending 1,200 yuan, there will be someone dedicated to serving you throughout the day, taking you to shortcuts, VIP watching performances, and serving snacks. After I saw this right, I couldn’t help sighing, it’s nice to have money~
Is the correct Universal Studios play sequence clockwise or counterclockwise? In fact, I have read so many strategies on the Internet, whether there is a certain reason for going forward or against, and they may not work for you. When entering the park, see where there are few people and go! In Universal Studios, everyone is a master of time management. As long as you plan reasonably and adapt to the situation, you can have fun.
2. Transportation & Accommodation
Still the same sentence, you must live close to the paradise, otherwise you will be tired before you arrive at the paradise. If possible, it is recommended to stay in an official hotel, which has the right to enter the park 1 hour in advance. The Universal Studios Hotel offers the best value for money. The hotel is right above the ticket gate. Don't worry about entering the park early, the project is not open, basically you walk around in it, and the queuing channel will open after you finish walking. In the extra time, you can also take pictures in the empty park without crowding people.
If you choose to live in a nearby hotel, you can refer to my previous article "Guide to Replacement of Hotels Around Universal Studios". It should be noted here that the destination of the taxi is located at the [online car-hailing parking spot], and the location of the home is also the same, otherwise it will be intercepted by the security guards.
3. Do your homework in advance
You can brush/make up/review the movie before going, it will make you play more happily;
Download the [Universal Beijing Resort] App and make an appointment in advance. Enter the face in advance, you can directly scan your face to enter the park, and you need to use it to see the queuing time of various items;
Get ready for Beijing Healthbao, save the screenshot. On this day, you will open it countless times and be checked by the staff;
It is recommended to get up early and enter the park after breakfast;
Bring sunscreen (no spray), sunglasses, charging treasure, umbrella/raincoat, tissue, small vest... After all, there are no such Muggle things in the wizarding world;
Bring your own water cup, you can pour water in the park, a bottle of water is not enough;
Lightweight shoes, start brushing in 2w steps;
Ridiculous jokes throughout the day, but happiness is also true happiness. From the scene setting to the personnel, you will feel that they are attentive. The staff will cooperate with you to show the Hedwig doll that moves and calls, and will also lend you your broom and wand to take pictures. When I walked out of Universal Studios, I saw the staff lady holding a group of balloons, smiling and saying goodbye to me, like a dream.
Thank you for your patience in reading such a long tweet. Whether you love Universal Studios or not, I wish you a happy day~
