Tokyo Disneyland

     Tokyo Disneyland is a theme park based on the films produced by Walt Disney. It was opened in 1983 as the first Disney theme park outside of the United States. Modeled after Disneyland in California and the Magic Kingdom in Florida, Tokyo Disneyland is made up of seven themed lands and features seasonal decorations and parades.


My opinion:
This wonderland for all ages ! Great fun but do expect longer lines for popular rides. Good options for food. Some restaurants have set menus which can be viewed before you enter. I think one day is not enough depending on your total queuing time. A must see is the fireworks at night. Head for the castle for a show starting 7:30 pm, followed by their grand fireworks. So beautiful.

World Bazaar


     World Bazaar, located at the main entrance to the park, is a covered shopping arcade lined by shops and restaurants. The area is designed like an early 20th century American town and serves as the park's main shopping area where many guests stop on their way out of the park.

Tomorrowland


     Tomorrowland explores the themes of outer space and future technologies. It is home to popular attractions such as Space Mountain, Star Tours and Buzz Lightyear's AstroBlasters.

Toontown


     Toontown is a suburban toon neighborhood where the Disney characters live, work and play. Aimed at a younger audience, Toontown lets visitors meet Mickey at his house, play on Donald Duck's boat, check out Chip'n Dale's Treehouse and ride a kid sized rollercoaster.


My opinion:
This is the best for me, Monsters Hide and Go Seek - On this ride guests are given flashlights with which to seek out Monsters hidden throughout the various rooms. This is interactive and makes for a different experience each time you ride! This is an original ride at Tokyo Disneyland and can't be found anywhere else in the world. But you will wait a long time for Monsters Hide and Go Seek.

Fantasyland


     Fantasyland is based on the classic animated films by Disney and is home to the iconic Cinderella's Castle at the center of the park, as well as other characters and rides such as Peter Pan, Snow White, It's A Small World and Pooh's Hunny Hunt, an original Fantasyland attraction unique to Tokyo Disneyland.

Critter Country


     Critter Country is home to Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, Br'er Bear and the other characters from the Disney film "Song of the South". Here you can find the popular Splash Mountain log ride, as well as guided canoe tours on the Rivers of America.

Westernland


     Westernland is themed after the US western frontier along the Rivers of America. The area is home to the popular rollercoaster Big Thunder Mountain, while Tom Sawyer Island is located out in the middle of the river.

Adventureland


     Adventureland includes attractions that encompass the spirit of adventure. Here you can join a jungle cruise, explore the Swiss Family Treehouse, ride the Western River Railroad and sail with the Pirates of the Caribbean.
