Tokyo Disneyland, a splendid attraction

The hugely popular Tokyo Disneyland like other Disney amusement parks is an elaborate theme park which is based on the iconic movies created by the Walt Disney Company. At the time of its opening in 1983 it had the distinction of being the initial Disney park to be located outside the USA. Tokyo Disneyland follows the thematic design of its precursors, California’s Disneyland and Florida’s Magic Kingdom, featuring no less than seven theme lands as well as seasonal parades and other attractions.

The World Bazaar situated at the park’s main entranceway is a quaint shopping arcade which resembles an American town in the early years of the 20th century. Here you will find a number of restaurants and shops which many visitors frequent as they leave the park.
Kids will be enthralled by the charming Toontown, which resembles a suburban neighbourhood where the iconic Disney favourites carry on their much loved lives. The small fry can explore Donald Duck’s sailing boat, visit Mickey at his home, take a peek inside Chip n’ Dale’s treehouse or take an exhilarating ride on a special rollercoaster just for the kids.

On the other hand Tomorrowland provides an intriguing vision of the future with its outer space themed attractions and futuristic technologies. Popular features here include Star Tours and Space Mountain as well as Buzz Lightyear.

Naturally no visitor should miss out on Fantasyland with its myriad of attractions based on the popular Disney films. Cinderella’s Castle takes centre stage and you will also enjoy Snow White, Peter Pan, and Pooh’s Hunny Hunt, the latter being exclusive to the Tokyo park.

Make sure you experience Adventureland with its unique attractions such as the jungle cruise, Western River Railroad, Swiss Family Treehouse and the Pirates of the Caribbean.

Another key attraction is Westernland where you will see a nostalgic glimpse of the Old West, with highlights like Tom Sawyer Island and the Big Thunder Mountain rollercoaster. With so much to see and enjoy, Tokyo Disneyland will never disappoint its innumerable guests.
