Anaheim, California, USA

The oldest amusement park under the Walt Disney brand opened in 1955. Disneyland has become the real embodiment of Walt Disney's dream of a large theme park amusement. It gained instant success, becoming the first amusement park in the world focused on family vacations with children. Despite many changes and restructures that have taken place in the park over more than half a century of history, Disneyland in Anaheim still hospitably opens its doors to millions of adults and children. The oldest Disneyland consists of eight theme zones, some of which have become classic for other amusement parks under the Walt Disney brand.


Florida

The largest and most visited Disneyland in the world today is considered a park located in the US state of Florida, a few tens of kilometers from the city of Orlando. Disneyland in Florida was opened in 1971, it became the most large-scale brainchild of Walt Disney, embodied, however, five years after his death.

The main part of this whole fairy-tale city called “Magic Kingdom” is the most visited park in the world. “Magic Kingdom” is located inside a kind of ring, in the center of which is the famous Cinderella Castle.

On the territory of the amusement park in Florida with an area of 11,300 hectares, the state actually operates with its own police, transport, hotels and street cafes. Fairy-tale, cartoon-like heroes participate in grand parades here, and bright cars with tourists wind up kilometers for railroads.

At Disneyland Florida, you will also find the theme parks Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Film Studio, Kingdom of the Beasts, two modern water parks, and La Nouba Circus. In the seven thematic areas of the "Magic Kingdom" there are forty-seven exciting attractions. Going to the largest Disneyland in Florida, you can understand the true essence of the holidays with its incredible magic and miracles.


Paris, France

For Europeans and Russians, perhaps, Disneyland Paris, which is located 32 kilometers east of the French capital, is of more interest. A trip to Disneyland Paris will cost less and take less time. The area of this complex of Walt Disney amusement parks, opened in 1992 in the suburbs of Paris, is about 1943 hectares. In addition to the two theme parks Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park, there is also a Disney Village amusement park with numerous restaurants, boutiques, night discos and clubs. Disneyland Paris even has its own train station with narrow-gauge trains and its own children's football school.


Urayasu, Chiba, Japan

Tokyo Disneyland was actually the first Walt Disney company fleet outside of America - it opened in 1983. It includes not only Disneyland, similar to American analogues, but also a separate theme park Tokyo Disney Sea. Disney Sea Park, as you might guess, is entirely devoted to the marine theme, based on the adventures of Sinbad the sailor and captain Nemo. In this park you can meet pirates and mermaids, ride a water slide for your pleasure and be known for scuba diving.


Hong Kong

The youngest Disneyland at the moment is a park in Hong Kong. It looks more miniature in comparison with Tokyo or American entertainment complexes. However, it enjoys enviable popularity and attracts up to five million tourists a year. Disneyland in Hong Kong opened in 2005 around a beautiful natural lake on Lantau Island. Of course, although this park was created on the basis of American Disneyland, but it has its own flavor. For example, Alice from Wonderland, well-known to everyone, sings in Chinese here, and in local restaurants and cafes you are served exclusively Chinese dishes. However, this is quite logical, because the Chinese who come here as families prefer to listen to speeches in their native language, rather than in English.

The park itself is built in accordance with all the canons and traditions of Feng Shui. It is divided into several classic thematic zones: Main Street, Fantasy Country, Adventure Country and Future Country. Plus, in Hong Kong Disneyland there is a zone called Toyland, created specifically for Asia. The popularity of Hong Kong Disneyland today breaks all records and on some days it can even be difficult to get an entrance ticket here - all because of the long line-up.
