Universal Studios Beijing overview
Universal Studios Beijing at a glance
The largest Universal park in the world, opened in 2021.
Universal Studios Beijing opened in September 2021 as the biggest Universal park ever built, with seven themed lands including a full Wizarding World of Harry Potter, Transformers Metrobase and Kung Fu Panda Land of Awesomeness — the last of these unique to Beijing. It scaled to roughly nine million annual visitors within two years.
Our editor's recommendation
Worth a day, but build it into a wider trip rather than flying in for it. It ranks #28 of the 50 parks we score, at 7.3/10 with 37 rides and attractions and a typical visit of about 10 hours. Tickets run $52–$103 a day. The strongest reasons to go are its value for money. The honest catch: queues average around 31 minutes. Best time to visit: Autumn.
