Hello! To buy ticket, now we have to select a set time and gate entrance. The tickets are for 3 days. My question is, do you know if for the 3 days we can only enter during that time? Because it says that after you enter the first time from your selected gate, the other days you can enter from any other gate. But it doesn’t mention about time. After the first entrance can you enter at anytime on the next day? Would you know? Thanks!
