Construction of the world's sixth Disney amusement park will begin in Shanghai on Friday.

According to the plan, the Disneyland will cover 390 hectares, and include two hotels, a commercial and restaurant complex and a lake. Two subway lines will be able to ferry visitors in and out, and experts suspect an International holiday resort will eventually be built around the Disneyland. That would likely draw a third of its profit come from the theme park, and the remaining two thirds from the hotel and merchandise sales.

The park, which is the third Disneyland in Asia, is set to open in five years time.

Xia Lingen, Professor of Fudan University said "The Disneyland should be treated as an industrial zone. It can drive the development of other industries such as entertainment and hotels. Supporting facilities must be improved. We know that Japan's Disneyland has already developed into a new town."
