Hong Kong Disneyland Thursday afternoon re-opened to tourists with tickets, who were rejected of entry earlier for the park, which is full with vacationers.

Around 200 tourists with tickets Thursday morning gathered in front of the park's gate asking for entrance, while some of them tried to climb over the iron-barred gate, according to local News Channel.

An angry tourist from Taiwan told the TV station that he visited Disneyland in California and Tokyo, and had never been locked out of the park.

The park closed its gate at 10:00 am Thursday, the eighth sold- out day in almost five months' operation.

Hundreds of visitors with tickets were refused to enter the park when it was full at 11:30 am on Wednesday.

The park started selling tickets without a specific date but valid in sixth months on Jan. 3.

According to the new ticket selling mechanism, guests can book their tickets on-line and pick up the tickets when visiting the park on any day in the sixth months. However, guests holding tickets without specific dates are not guaranteed admission.

In a bid to relieve the situation, the park issued a statement at 9:00 am Thursday, announcing it was full and would receive no more visitors today.

The statement was published at all entrance of the railway leading to the park.

"In order to preserve the guest experience, the park cannot permit further entries," said a Hong Kong Disneyland statement on Thursday, suggesting "guests holding tickets may visit on another day."

Meanwhile, many tourists left the park just after midday, complaining it was too crowded with visitors.
