Universal Studios Beijing

We visited Universal Beijing during the Christmas season, and the atmosphere was amazing with a strong festive vibe. The weather was cold and windy, so warm clothing is highly recommended. Since our family purchased Express Passes for all rides, there was no need to arrive early. We entered the park around 10:00 AM and stayed until about 8:00 PM, yet we were still able to enjoy every attraction with almost no waiting time. It was definitely worth it. Before heading back to the hotel, we had dinner at Grandma’s Kitchen inside the park. Although we walked a lot and felt tired, it was a fun and memorable experience, especially for a family trip.

We were staying at Wangfujing so it was a 1.5hrs train ride to USB. We arrived at 10am and surprisingly, the park was not crowded. Longest waiting time for us was roughly 30 mins. There are Transformers, Kungfu Panda, Jurassic Park, Water world (closed when we came), Minions and of course Harry Potter. We managed to get almost all attractions and performances. The most crowded section as expected was Harry Potter. Remember that attractions are mostly in Mandarin. Park and its toilets are very clean. Restaurants are more or less the same style as any other Universal Studios. Kungfu Panda is the unique attraction only available in Beijing, though we find nothing too special about the rides. Other unique thing about the park is you can bring along snack from convinience stores such as sandwiches, onigiri and cakes, which is great! It was a great fun, although the only unique attraction as mentioned is Kungfu Panda, the rest are the same as in other Universal Studios.

29 Dec 2025 It's Monday, it's a good day that I picked to go there. I can say it is not too crowded. Their toilets are clean and not smelly, quite a surprised. They provide drinking water right outside each toilet where you can fill up your own bottle. Not like US Singapore or Osaka or Florida, when I was there, they do not provide free drinking water. Not sure now. Eating inside US, it is pricy compare to outside, that's for sure. And don't expect too high for their taste, as you know their cooking for a huge crowd. What I don't like about Universal Studio Water World usually closed, been 2x to US but close. Same attraction are exactly the same around US. Let's say Harry Potter, the one in Osaka and here at Beijing are exactly the same layout and the rides too 😂 Same as the Water World, the show are the same too between US at different country 😂 So, when you go to US at different country and expecting to see something different from the same attractions, it's a disappointment.

Topic: An unforgettable experience at Universal Studios Beijing! "I had high expectations for Universal Studios Beijing, and it exceeded them all. The park is massive, clean, and incredibly immersive. Highlights: • Jurassic World Isla Nublar: This area is unique to Beijing and it is spectacular. The 'Jurassic World Adventure' ride is an absolute masterpiece of technology—easily one of the best dark rides in the world. • Kung Fu Panda Land of Awesomeness: The indoor theming is beautiful and very atmospheric. It feels like stepping right into the movie. • Harry Potter: As always, Hogsmeade is magical, and the forbidden journey ride is a classic. The staff (Team Members) were energetic and helpful throughout the day. If you are in Beijing, this is a must-visit destination!"

I had a great time in Universal Studio Beijing, better come early because so many places to visit and you can't skip every part. I love it all especially Harry Potter coz it feels so magical and fun. And places to make movies (I forget the name) but we can see how they make the effects for movies and it really sooo cool. Other places like Minion, Jurassic Park etc also great thats why you have to come from the first time they open and back when they closed

As an adrenaline junkie, visiting Universal Studios Beijing was definitely high on my list. Having already experienced Universal Studios Singapore, my expectations were sky-high. While I appreciated that Beijing’s park is noticeably bigger and newer, I felt that much of the experience leaned more towards family-friendly fun than thrill-seeking excitement. The rides, while well-designed, seemed mostly tailored for kids. Even the roller coasters felt a bit underwhelming if you’re chasing that adrenaline rush. That said, I did enjoy indulging in some treats, especially the Minions ice cream and a root beer float from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The highlight for me? Definitely the parade. Watching Shrek, Madagascar, and other beloved characters come to life was pure joy and brought out the kid in me. All in all, a fun experience..just not quite the thrill I was expecting

Universal Studios Beijing is an amazing theme park with incredible attractions and world-class entertainment. The rides are exciting and very well designed, especially for fans of movies and adventure. The atmosphere feels fun from the moment you enter, and there are plenty of shows, characters, and photo spots everywhere. The park can get crowded, so I recommend going early or using express passes if possible. Food options are good, but a bit expensive—typical for big theme parks. Overall, it’s a great experience and definitely worth visiting while in Beijing!

This was my first experience at Universal Studios Beijing, following previous visits to the parks in Singapore and Orlando. I was particularly impressed by the amenities, including the availability of warm drinking water and clean restrooms equipped with soft tissue sheets. I also paid 900 yuan for the Universal Express service for each attraction. Overall, the express service was worth the cost; however, for Flight of the Hippogriff in the Harry Potter zone, the Universal Express pass still required a waiting time of approximately 30 minutes. In addition, for international tourists like myself, the Universal Studios mobile application is somewhat difficult to access, as it is not available on the Google Play Store for Android users.
