Have had a new job offer in Zhuhai in Guangdong. Just wondering what theme parks are nearby. I know Hong Kong is about an hour away by ferry but not sure how long it takes to get to HKDL/Ocean Park specifically. And what other parks are around? How far away are they?

Mmm. Very hard to work out what the admission prices are. What other parks and attractions are there? And are Western movies shown in English with Chinese subtitles or the other way around? Thanks.

Yep, have heard about the slide at the Great Wall - what a way to get some culture! And how much for an annual pass? What about outside of Beijing and relatively nearby?

Maybe moving to Beijing with my wife and kids in about 6 months and one thing I haven't had a chance to research (because of bigger priorities, obviously) is what there is in terms of theme parks / water parks in the city and the nearby area (say within 1-2 hours or a bit more I guess). Obviously Happy Valley Beijing but that's all I know really. I see some Beijing parks mentioned in the index but what else is there that's fairly easy to reach? And how practical is it to get to Hong Kong for Disneyland/Ocean Park? And Shenzhen? Also, how much is admission and what about annual passes? How much are they? HVB I'd definitely buy an annual pass to! Any links would be appreciated too. Also: this is off-topic but are Western movies screened with Chinese subtitles or do they get dubbed with English subtitles? And what about video game/handheld/console releases compared to the rest of the world? Thanks guys. I know this is asking a lot from a first post but i'll happily share my own tips and trip reports etc once i get over there.
