Enchanted Storybook Castle

Enchanted Storybook Castle, Theme park castle in Pudong, Shanghai, China

The Enchanted Storybook Castle is a structure in Shanghai Disneyland Park that rises 60 meters above the grounds with multiple towers and intricate architectural details, including golden peony finials. It functions as the park's focal point, housing attractions, character dining venues, and interactive experiences throughout its interior spaces.

The castle opened on June 16, 2016, and was the tallest Disney castle upon its completion. It surpassed the previous record held by Cinderella's Castle at Walt Disney World in Florida.

The castle represents all Disney princesses rather than a single character, as the Castle of Magical Dreams at Hong Kong Disneyland also does. Its design draws on Cinderella Castle and Sleeping Beauty Castle. The park's motto, "Authentically Disney, Distinctly Chinese," is carried by the peony sculpture at the top of the tallest tower, a flower tied to Shanghai.

The castle holds three separate experiences: a walkthrough attraction, a character dining restaurant and a boat-themed ride, so allow time for each rather than treating it as a single stop. The walkthrough can be visited without a ride queue, which makes it a useful option when the boat ride is busy. The structure has eight towers, so pick a meeting point before splitting up inside.

Rather than focusing on a single fairy tale character, the castle celebrates all Disney princesses through multiple exhibits and entertainment spaces. This approach to character representation differs from other Disney parks worldwide, where a single castle typically tells one specific story.
