A Garden of Reflections
In a perfect example of time flying, it's been nine and a half years since my one and only visit to the Shanghai Disneyland Resort. At that time, the park was still within its first year of operation, and as a unique Magic Kingdom that was "authentically Disney and distinctly Chinese," it was organized differently than the other Magic Kingdoms, with a Mickey Avenue instead of a Main Street, an Adventure Isle instead of an Adventureland, and a Treasure Cove instead of a... New Orleans Square? Yes, it had a Tomorrowland--albeit a radically futuristic looking one. And it did have a Fantasyland with a centrally iconic castle. But it also had a themed land comprising a central park space in front of the castle that also served as a bountiful audience space for nighttime castle spectaculars. And that Gardens of Imagination provided some great photo ops of the castle, including this mirroring one!
