Actually, I am looking for the right coordinates. The map that is posted on Disney & More is great, but it shows highways that do not exist yet. Hovering above Shanghai on Google Earth did nothing to help me find the actual construction site. Can anyone provide the exact coordinates for the future park?
I believe its here:
Google Maps
thanks -- that seems right, but there is a LOT of developed areas there!
Not to worry, the PRoC Central Government, has taken care of that!
Well...its one of the top Super Cities on the planet...there are not a lot of undeveloped areas there. Especially between the city & the sea. Even heading inland...I was surprised in 11 months how much one area changed!Quote:

The blog post also has a news story and video on the recent breaking ground ceremony there, as well as some background on overseas Disneylands around the world.
It says there that they expect 7 million through the gate a year at Shanghai whereas Hong Kong has been weak around the 4 million mark since opening in 2005 (and making millions losses every single year since then). Paris started out bad, but came good after three years.

I hope SHDL's target per year is exceeded as opposed to what happened in Hong Kong.Quote:
