Welcome to the Ultraman world.

Fans of Ultraman flocked to a park in the Pudong New Area on Sunday as the first Ultraman-themed pavilion in the world began trial operations.

The Ultraman-themed universe came to life at Shanghai Haichang Ocean Park with a 12-meter-tall model of the fictional superhero, approximately 400 priceless displays, and a nighttime music celebration as the crowd roared.

"It is like a trip back in time when I stayed glued to television day and night, watching the popular TV series and believing I was a hero battling monsters and rescuing the world like Ultraman," said Li Ming, a 37-year-old visitor.

"When I see all these familiar scenes from the TV series replicated at the park, I am both excited and moved," he said.

The park offers over 20 different varieties of foods that are associated with the superhero, including ramen, curry rice, and hamburger.

At the Ultraman energy station, visitors can buy Ultraman-shaped popcorn and ice cream.

The electronic music venue Ultraman Square has put on a nighttime spectacular featuring dances, light displays, pyrotechnics, and a musical fountain.

According to Zhang Jianbin, executive president of the park, amusement parks in China are restructuring their development toward comprehensive resorts and a variety of services as a result of COVID-19.

The park will allow free entry for children with disabilities till the end of this year.

Young visitors will also receive Ultraman-themed gifts and beverages for free.
