Universal Orlando’s long -awaited theme park had heavy criticism a few days after opening its gates.
Epic Universe, which was officially opened on May 22, is Universal’s third full theme park and the fourth gate overall in the vast Orlando resort.
The £ 4.5bn resort boasts five exciting worlds: Celestial Park, Dark Universe, How to Train Your Dragon – Isle of Berk, Super Nintendo World and the Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic.
With its leading attractions, block -to -themes and other worldly design, the park has already drawn fans from all over the world – especially players and film fans.
But it’s not just the rides or the entertainment that participants speak – it’s the sun.
Visitors have taken to review platforms and social media to express their frustration over the lack of shady areas in the entire new park, located in one of the hottest and humid regions in the US
On TripAdvisor, one contributor has warned co -participants to wear “sunscreen” because there is nowhere a shadow. ‘
Another wrote from the resort: ‘It is exceptionally hot – no shade in the park and all the seats were off. ‘

Visitors have investigated the platforms and social media to address their frustration over the lack of shady areas in the entire new park, located in one of the humid regions in the US
Over Reddit expressed dozens of visitors similar views, such as one in a thread: ‘My biggest criticism is the lack of shadow. Many parks like making people feel the heat of pushing liquor sales, but Epic was really coarse when I went a few weeks ago.
“I remember when I entered the Httime Land, I wanted to stay under the portal for about 20 minutes, because it is one of the few areas in the park with shadow of the brutal Orlando sun.”
Some parkgoers add to the setback or the daily ticket price of $ 139 (£ 103) is worth, especially given which some describe as ‘limited’ offers compared to the hype.
One person wrote ‘outrageous prices’, while another added: ‘I feel that it is light on rides, although there are 14 apparently the Harry Potter area, it is a waste with just 1 ride and Nintendo World does nothing to me except to give my headache.’
A third said: ‘My main concern is that there are not enough things to do. California -adventure has opened twice as many things, including shows, breakthroughs, etc. And that the park was notorious because it did not have enough attractions. ‘
A fourth claims’ some rides are not open at all ‘and’ some have closed several times a day for a long time ‘, while another claims that there are’ not enough rides and the rides they do are not good enough. ‘
Another frustrated participant added: ‘I may not be the majority, but I don’t think it’s worth the money! The lines were horrible … a 3 hour wait. What I know it’s brand new, but if you only have 2-3, a park then drives, how will it improve?
“Also, when I delayed or broken half of the rides. So if you only have ten rides in the entire park, the waiting times are ridiculous. I hope it improves and they work out the kinks. ‘

Despite the criticism, many visitors claimed to have enjoyed their time in the park
Despite the criticism, many visitors claimed to have enjoyed their time in the park, as one wrote: ‘The character actors and rides are truly unique. I am excited to go back and see how this park develops.
“I feel like complaints are out of hand over the time. There are so many things to do in the park, even with rides, I did not lack new things to try. ‘
Another said: ‘This is the most majestic park I’ve ever been, although some are called negatives as called by other users (a lack of shade, some technical problems), but the atmosphere is perfect. ‘
In the end, one contestant said: “Truly a theme park in the 21st century, very exciting in the four portals, and the two -phase performances are not spoken enough, both are incredible.”
