Shanghaî Disneyland Mickey Avenue Picture

A short Shanghaî Disneyland post with, in a addition of the close shot above of SDL castle, a great picture of Shanghaî Disneyland Mickey Avenue - the entrance street of SDL which replace the usual "Main Street". Make sure to enlarge the picture, that was found and posted by MarcoDisney on themeparx.com, so you can see SDL "Wishing Star" lake in the background and on the upper left the lift for Adventure Isle Roaring Rapids raft ride.

The buildings facades are all painted and no doubt that SDL Imagineers are currently working on the inside theming of each building. The pavement of the street is not done yet but should be anytime soon and apparently the material to do it is waiting in stacks near the trees and around.



More Shanghaî Disneyland update coming soon, so stay tuned on D&M!

Shanghaî Disneyland Mickey Avenue High-Res Artworks

It's always good sometime to check twice and i realized that i had missed some HD renderings related to Mickey Avenue released on the new Shanghaî Disneyland website!

So, the first one below is showing the Carthay Theater located at one end of Mickey Avenue facing SDL Castle and it's obviously a zoom on a part of a larger rendering. Nevermind as we learn something interesting if we have a closer look at it, and i'm talking about the terrace of the Carthay Theater where we can see people eating or having a drink. Which mean that there should be a restaurant upstairs and with one of the best view of the park as it will face the Gardens of Imagination and Enchanted Storybook Castle. Great place too to watch the parade or fireworks!

Next is another HD rendering showing the inside of Tony's Ristorante and this one too seems to be a zoom on a larger original artwork.

The last rendering is one we've seen before but here in HD and it's for the Confectionery shop.

That's all for today about Shanghaî Disneyland!

A Closer Look to Shanghaî Disneyland Mickey Avenue

Thanks to a new video from the D23 Shanghaî Disneyland presentation area we have a close look at SDL Mickey Avenue, the "entrance street" of Shanghaî Disneyland as there won't be any Main Sttreet U.S.A as we find it generally in Disney's Magic Kingdoms. "Mickey Avenue will be the first main entry at a Disney park inspired by the colorful personalities of Mickey Mouse and his pals. Mickey Avenue is the hometown of imagination, a welcoming, whimsical neighborhood filled with lively shops and restaurants. Stepping into this cheerful land sets the tone for a visit to Shanghai Disneyland, where guests will leave their worlds behind and enter lands of adventure, fantasy and the future."

We've seen before some views of Mickey Avenue as seen from above thanks to the model shown during Shanghaî presentation last July...

...but this CGI Pre-Visualization model show it from a different angle as seen "from the ground". If you want to know the size and length of Mickay Avenue think about the size of Town Square plus half of Main Street and that's basically how long will be this Mickey Avenue which will end with a Carthay Theater on its left, standing right in front of SDL castle.

Mickey Avenue will also include plenty of shops and restaurants in tribute to Disney animated classics as you'll see in the video below filmed by Mouse Steps at D23, from which i did the above enhanced screen captures.





And i've got "One More Thing" for you, not about Mickey Avenue but about the new Peter Pan's Flight vehicle system thanks to which "guests will soar as never before into this action-packed story of the boy who encourages imaginations to fly."You'll see SDL Imagineers testing the new ride vehicle system on a short test track, and the video also shows some animation tests which apparently should be include somewhere during the ride.
