'Mulan' Opening Credits Feature Shanghai Disneyland's Enchanted Storybook Castle

Mulan made its big debut on Disney+ today, and fans got a big treat just a few seconds into watching the live action movie.

The opening credits don’t feature Cinderella’s Castle from Walt Disney World, as is standard for most of the movies put out by Disney.

For Mulan, the opening credits actually featured the castle from Shanghai Disneyland, called the Enchanted Storybook Castle, and it delighted fans all over social media.

“The Disney intro for Mulan uses the Shanghai Disney castle, I legit screamed,” one fan wrote with a screengrab of the castle.

Another added, “I love how they use the Shanghai Disneyland castle for the logo in #Mulan !!!! #GoldOpen.”

Dianne Doan, who played Lonnie, the daughter of Mulan in Disney’s Descendants, even reacted to the opening.

“Be still my heart!!! It’s been 5 mins and I’m already screaming SparklesRed heartLoudly crying faceSmiling face with heart-shaped eyes MULAN available Disney+ NOW!! #Mulan #DisneyPlus #goldopen,” she wrote.

“The beginning of Mulan is the Shanghai Castle 🥺😫💗,” one more tweeted.

Mulan, starring Yifei Liu, Donnie Yen, Jason Scott Lee, Tzi Ma, Yoson An, and more is streaming now on Disney+ Premier Access priced at $29.99.

Other movies that have incorporated other castles in the opening credits include Maleficent, Beauty and the Beast, and Lady and the Tramp.
