Studying in wonderland

Shanghai Disney Resort and the Universal Beijing Resort, once beloved by young people for their enchanting decorations and immersive atmosphere, have now become spiritual oases where many devote themselves to study and work.

It turns out, theme parks actually offer an ideal study environment: they feature cafes, canteens, theaters, and the ambient white noise of park visitors, creating a perfect balance to counter the pressures of study and mundane tasks.

This new trend is embraced primarily by college students with annual theme park passes, who want to make the most of them.

Some may question the effectiveness of studying outside a library, but for these theme park study enthusiasts, there are unique perks. Pulling out their books and laptops from a secluded seat behind a Disney castle feels like a prince or princess studying in their own private garden. Similarly, studying on the Harry Potter campus makes one feel like a real Hogwarts student preparing for wizarding exams.

Theme parks also provide an unexpected setting for self-learners to stay active. According to netizens, by changing study locations between different facilities, self-learners can easily achieve part of their fitness goals, often walking over 10,000 steps in a day.

While it may seem contradictory to dedicate oneself to studying in a world of fairy tales and magic, this new trend offers a refreshing break in an era of increasing work pressures.
