There were some attractions that aren't available in Japan, and I had a great time! The weather was bad, so I wore a raincoat, but there was a New Year's Eve countdown event, and I had so much fun that I forgot about the rain!

I highly recommend the studio tour, which offers a glimpse into Hollywood film sets and is incredibly exciting. I also highly recommend watching the Waterworld shows; the actors are very professional, and the theatrical effects are fantastic. Overall, Universal Studios' facilities and environment are well worth experiencing and enjoying. I also recommend downloading the Universal Studios app to see the queue times for each attraction. Spending a whole day here will be very rewarding.

We got a great deal buy 1 get 1 free period. It is super moment to enjoy the park in 2 days. We did all game and ride. Harry Potter had 2 different ride, we did them twice. However we don’t know why the Mario game need to wait more than 2 hours. It is not work. If you just had 1 day pass, I suggest to skip it or do it at the lost game. It waste too much time. We just park general parking which cost $40. It take 10 mins walk to the park entrance. In the 10 mins walk, you can have good time for shopping.
