THOUSANDS of Metro commuters visited the Disneytown at the Shanghai Disney Resort today on the first opening day of the Line 11’s Disney Resort station.

About 3,000 passengers have traveled by the line to the station as of this noon, according to the city’s Metro operator. Many of them braved the drizzle to visit the resort’s shopping, dining and entertainment district which has been opened to the public without admission charge.

Many Disney staff welcomed the visitors at the Disneytown by guiding them and taking photos for them, though shops and restaurants are yet to open.

At opening of the Disneyland on June 16, the Disneytown will feature nearly 50 tenants including the first World of Disney store in Asia and a diverse mix of retailers – premium, affordable luxury and fast fashion options – plus restaurants.

The tenants will include well-known local and international brands including renowned restaurants Shanghai Min, Crystal Jade, and The Cheesecake Factory operated by Hong Kong Maxim’s Group.

Other high-profile brands including Food Republic, Coconut Paradise, The Dining Room, Hatsune, blue frog, Xin Wang Restaurant, BreadTalk, Toast Box, and Chow Tai Fook.

Disneytown also will feature Disney’s theatrical production of THE LION KING, presented for the first time worldwide in Mandarin, at the 1,200-seat Walt Disney Grand Theatre. This show requires a separate ticket.
