Disney characters were once again giving hugs at Shanghai Disney Resort on Monday.
“Starting today, guests are welcome to get closer and interact with our cherished Disney characters who look forward to opening their arms for hugs, handshakes as well as close-up photos with guests,” the park announced on its official WeChat social network account on Monday.
Character autographs and tableside dining experiences will return at a later date, it added.
The resort made its decision based on the “proven success in other Disney theme parks in returning to traditional character greetings.”
