Disneytown

Much like Disneyland and Disney’s California Adventure has a Downtown Disney outside the park, Shanghai Disneyland has a Disneytown.  It’s a mix of the usual Western brands & chains (Starbucks, Lego, Cheesecake Factory, Build-A-Bear, etc.) and the usual Eastern brands & chains (Chow Tai Fook, Crystal Jade, Ippudo, etc.) plus a theater playing a Mandarin version of The Lion King Broadway show.
The street was decorated with Mickey ear Chinese lanterns, of course. Loved this Craftsman architecture, even so far away from Pasadena.Thought the name of this “district” was a little on the nose.
Very cool Chinese-style The Aristocats playbill.  There was also, of course, an entire store dedicated to high-end Marvel collectibles and another for Star Wars.
