China’s first domestically manufactured large cruise ship, the Adora Magic City, celebrated its 100th voyage in Shanghai on Monday, having welcomed more than 350,000 tourists from both domestic and international markets since it began commercial operations in early 2024.
The cruise ship wrapped up its journey at 6 a.m., arriving at the Shanghai Wusongkou International Cruise Terminal, where passengers disembarked.
"There are slides, swimming pools and 'gardens on the sea' on the cruise ship," a young boy enthusiastically shared what he found most striking about his experience.
"I hope that next time, I can bring my parents along to join me on another Adora voyage," expressed a female passenger.
In the meantime, Shanghai's maritime and border inspection agencies have implemented a tailored management program to ensure the safe and efficient functioning of the Adora Magic City.
"Using tools such as the smart maritime platform, electronic patrols and the Vessel Traffic Services system, we provide advanced safety and weather information to the cruise ship passing through the waters under our administration, ensuring the cruise goes safely and smoothly," remarked Sheng Jinghao, a maritime inspector at the Baoshan Maritime Safety Administration.
"We've implemented a series of measures to continuously streamline the customs clearance process. We use the cruise control system to speed up inspection, greatly reducing passenger waiting times," stated Qiao Yingsong, a customs officer at the Pujiang Border Inspection Station.
The Adora Magic City exemplifies China's advancing expertise in the cruise industry, built with the collaboration of over 1,000 global manufacturers, reflecting innovation and international partnership.
