''Kung Fu Panda Adventure'' is an animated simulator attraction based on the [[WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda popular franchise]]. It is can be found at [[Ride/UniversalStudios Universal Studios Hollywood]], where it opened on June 14, 2018, replacing ''WesternAnimation/ShrekFourD''.
In its story, Po sets off on a river raft-based quest to deliver the "Liquid of Ultimate Power" to the Emperor, bringing Master Shifu, Mr. Ping, and the entire audience along with him for extra help. In typical theme park ride-fashion, they encounter multiple obstacles along the way when they are faced with a band of wolf pirates that want the liquid for themselves.

----
!!Tropes shown in ''Kung Fu Panda Adventure'' include:
* ArrowsOnFire: The wolf pirates are briefly shown firing a barrage of flaming arrows towards the characters.
* BigBad: Kang, who is hellbent on taking the Liquid of Ultimate Power for himself before the heroes can get it to the Emperor.
* BioluminescenceIsCool: The entrance to Kang's cave is filled with glowing rockwork and dozens of fireflies.
* BlazingInfernoHellfireSauce: It turns out that the Liquid of Ultimate Power is actually just the ingredient for Mr. Ping's hot sauce, which is so strong that it sends Kang crashing back to the ground in smokes, and causes Po to burp fire.
* BrokenBridge: Right after going down the waterfall, the audience finds themselves going through a series of obstacles in the form of an unfinished bridge.
* BuildingSwing: As to be expected with pirates, Kang and his pack get around the cave with a series of hanging ropes and chains.
* CanonForeigner: Kang and his pack of wolf pirates were created exclusively for the attraction.
* CaveMouth: In a slight variation, Kang's cave has a glowing mouth and eyes in the middle of it, rather than right at the entrance.
* ChekhovsGun: Along with a few other weapons, the pre-show briefly showcases the Ming Hammer, noting that it's a magical weapon powerful enough to teleport someone to the Spirit Realm. It doesn't seem to be important to the plot at first until Kang breaks in and steals it, and later uses it against the protagonists.
* ConveyorBeltODoom: Kang's territory has one that contains swinging axes, wrecking balls, spikes, among other hazards.
* DerelictGraveyard: The river rapids that the characters travel down are filled with the remains of several wrecked ships.
* DramaticSpotlight: One appears over Donkey as he makes his entrance into the pre-show.
* TheDreadedPretendTeaParty: After Po refuses to let them come along, Princess Poppy decides to drag Gingy off-screen to one of these.
* DropTheHammer: After stealing it, Kang wields the Ming Hammer throughout the ride.
* HehHehYouSaidX: Gingy does this in the pre-show, which gets a groan out of Shifu.
-->'''Princess Poppy''': Poppy reporting for duty!
-->'''Gingy''': Heh, heh! She said "doody"!
* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: The wolf pirates, despite firing dozens of close arrows, fail to land a hit on any of the characters.
* InevitableWaterfall: Not far into the journey do the protagonists find themselves plummeting down a waterfall.
-->'''Po''': ''(looking at the map)'' That's weird, it's like the river just ends up ahead...
* IntercontinuityCrossover: The pre-show involves several of the characters from ''Kung Fu Panda'', ''Shrek'', ''Madagascar'', and ''Trolls'' interacting with each other.
* LastVillainStand: Kang returns on his own to take on the heroes, though he is later able to use the Ming Hammer's magic to summon two of his minions.
* MacGuffinEscortMission: The plot of the ride deals with Po trying to deliver the supposed "Liquid of Ultimate Power", though it later turns out that the Emperor just wanted to see Po and the liquid was just an excuse.
* MagicMirror: The Magic Mirror from ''Shrek'' briefly appears right at the start of the pre-show to give an introduction.
* MeaninglessVillainVictory: Kang succeeds in getting the Liquid of Ultimate Power, but his victory is short-lived as it turns out that it was actually just a bottle of hot sauce, which he experiences the full effects of upon drinking it.
* MyNameIsInigoMontoya: Upon appearing from out of the darkness, Kang simply introduces himself with, "I am Kang! [[PrepareToDie Prepare to die!]]"
* LargeHam: Kang proves to be this, with his constant EvilGloating and just how much he loves to keep announcing, "I am Kang!"
* {{Pirate}}: A band of wolf river pirates act as the villains of the attraction.
* RefusalOfTheCall: Shrek, Donkey, and Marty are at first willing to join Po on his adventure, but when Shifu notes that they might not all survive, [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere they are quick to make an exit]].
* RefusedByTheCall: After the other characters decline joining Po, Princess Poppy and Gingy are the only ones willing to help. Po decides to reject their services on account of how tiny they are.
* SadisticChoice: Kang gives Po the choice of stopping him or saving his father, pointing out that a large rock is about to hit Mr. Ping. Po chooses to save Ping without even a second of hesitation.
* SoMuchForStealth: Upon entering Kang's territory, Mr. Ping, despite Po and Shifu's warnings, is unable to keep quiet, which soon leads to them getting caught.
* SupervillainLair: Kang and his wolf pirates have their a sinister-looking lair in a cave that's filled with all sorts of death traps.
* TalkingInYourSleep: Right at the attraction's entrance, Pinocchio from ''Shrek'' can be seen inside the theatre's ticket booth, asleep and talking to himself.
* WeaponizedTeleportation: Kang uses the Ming Hammer to teleport the characters into the Spirit Realm.
* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: When Po suggests that the audience should come along with them, Shifu gives this response. He does this again in the climax when Kang returns, muttering an annoyed "''Really?''"
* YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle: It seems at first that the journey is over once the protagonists have finally made it to the Emperor... only for Kang to reemerge and bring the characters into the Spirit Realm for a final showdown.
