Ocean Park (the second amusement park in Hong Kong)

Introduction

The best time to get in to Ocean Park is at 10 a.m. on weekdays exactly. Weekends is full of people and long queues are expected. After 12 p.m. on weekdays, a normal queue is approximately 60 min. for one game. On weekdays, wating time for one game could be longer. When I got there, mornings are quiet on weekends but it depends. So, it is very worthwhile to take note on that!
