yeah, I would be shocked if we didn't see permits that help pin-point aspects like the layouts and sizes of the complex by around the next year or two. It only makes sense, as this is a larger project than say..a Themed coaster, or a fully themed land.

What I'm curious of, is to see any possible Beijing leaks of ride systems for Panda and Jurassic World.

On 27 October, a Beijing Youth Daily reporter learned from Tongzhou District that the first phase of the Universal Beijing Theme Park and Resort Project completed the planning and design and entered the construction preparation stage.

The Cultural Tourism Zone Management Committee recently coordinated the Tongzhou District Housing Construction Committee, the Municipal Municipal Committee, the Urban Management Enforcement Bureau, the Environmental Protection Bureau, the Transportation Detachment and other units, and 5 P3, P4, P5, P6, and H1A hotels that are to be opened when the Universal Studios park is planned to open. The construction site will be formally accepted by the six parties before the start of construction.

At present, all the projects of the first phase of Universal Beijing Theme Park and Resort Project have completed the planning and design and entered the stage of comprehensive construction preparation. After joint inspection, P3, P4, P5 and H1A passed the acceptance and passed the construction conditions. As can be seen from the satellite imagery, the contours of the Universal Studios Metro Station, Universal Hotel, City Avenue, and theme parks have all taken shape. In the next step, the Cultural Tourism Zone Management Committee will fully review the Universal Theme Park project and urge all projects within to start as soon as possible.

The first phase of the project includes a theme park, a retail, dining and entertainment complex - City Avenue, two theme resort hotels and a parking facility. The first phase covers an area of about 2 square meters. Kilometers, twice as many as Universal Studios Osaka, Japan, and nearly five of Universal Studios Singapore.

In That aerial you can clearly see the layout of the park. The Minion land being the most obvious. From there you can pretty much place everything else.

When is this set to open? Surely not 2020 per the title of the thread?

Per the Chinese reports, construction will be done by the end of next year with a 2020 opening. The way that is being solved is certain sections were giving to different construction groups. The people doing transformers did Shanghai Disney. The people doing the JW areas is a different big construction group, etc.

Put me in the sceptical camp as it stands but would love to see it open by then - would be a hell of an effort.

Technically if it faces no delays it’s on a timeframe like Shanghai where they aimed for end of the year. Like Shanghai though I am certain it will face delays and won’t be open until 2021.
 
Checking the Universal Creative Job Postings...it looks like they may be already starting to get people lined up for the second park and expansion plots for this resort.

HUGE INFORMATION DUMP

Therefore, in order to meet the accommodation needs of overnight visitors, the Universal Theme Park Phase 1 will contain two major hotel projects (1x super 5 star, 1x 4 star hotel.)

3. Xi Jin Ping
