Disneyland Resort
Interesting places in Disneyland Resort:The Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California is a major recreational resort (owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company), and is home to two theme parks, three hotels, and a shopping and entertainment area. Its properties include: * Disneyland, the current name given to the theme park that is Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom. * Disney's California Adventure, a theme park that celebrates the History and culture of the golden state. * Disneyland Hotel, The original Disney hotel, built in the 1950s when the park first opened. It has since been renovated in the late 1990s. * Disney's Grand Californian Hotel, a hotel based on the arts and crafts movement of the early 1900s. * Disney's Paradise Pier Hotel, a hotel themed after the section of Disney's California adventure it overlooks. * Downtown Disney, an outdoor shopping and entertainment district
Disneyland Resort is divided into two separate theme parks and an enterainment district. The first park is the original Disney theme park Disneyland. Its sister park Disney's California Adventure, which opened in February 2001, is located across the entry plaza. At the western end of the entry plaza is Downtown Disney, the entertainment district. Hotels are located at the end of Downtown Disney. Both parks are divided into "lands", or themes.
Disneyland's themed lands are Main Street, U.S.A. (modeled after 20th Century Marceline, Missouri, Walt Disney's childhood town), New Orleans Square (modeled after 18th Century ), Fantasyland (modeled after a Bavarian village), Mickey's Toontown (modeled after the cartoon town of Toontown in ), Adventureland (modeled after the jungles of Asia, Africa and the South Pacific), Frontierland (modeled after the old west), Critter Country (modeled after North American forests) and Tommorowland (modeled after the future).
Disney's California Adventure is divided into 5 themed lands, Sunshine Plaza (modeled after a California postcard), Golden State (which is divivded into 5 districts; Condor Flats is modeled after the aviation days of 20th Century , Grizzly Peak Recreation Area is modeled after the Northeastern California wilderness, The Bay Area is modeled after 20th Century San Francisco, Golden Vine Winery is modeled after California's Wine Country and Pacific Wharf is modeled after California's 20th Century wharfs), Paradise Pier (modeled after California's 20th Century boardwalks), Hollywood Pictures Backlot (modeled after 's studio backlots) and "a bug's land" (modeled after the movie "a bug's life") is the only non-Californian themed land in the park.
Disneyland's rides are generally considered classic well-themed dark rides (e.g. Pirates of the Caribbean) with the occasional thrill ride (e.g. Space Mountain), while California Adventure's rides are more thrill-oriented. However there are some family-style rides ("Soarin' Over California"). The cast members (Disney for "employee") in all sections of the park are very friendly and helpful. The attention to detail throughout the parks is extraordinary.
The two biggest problems with the Disneyland Resort as a whole are crowds and price. However with careful planning, both can be avoided:
Eating outside park is quite possible due to the close vicinity of several restaurants to the park and the benefit of hand-stamp and re-entry. Stick to just snacks maybe one meal in the park, and you can save some cash.
The parks can be pretty crowded, especially during the weekends, summer, and winter holidays, which leads to long lines for the most popular attractions. However, if you visit in the late winter or early spring off-season lines can be short, especially during the weekdays. Disney's California Adventure has fewer attractions and still has long lines, but not as long as Disneyland's attractions. Disneyland is the most visited theme park in the world, with Disney's California Adventure rapidly becoming the second.
