Cheap Hotels Paris - Disneyland
What to see by foot: Paris - Disneyland
    
In the park, Main Street USA features horse-drawn carriages and street-corner
barbershop quartets. From Main Street Station, steam-powered trains leave for
a trip through the Grand Canyon Diorama to Frontierland, which features paddle-wheel
steamers reminiscent of the Mississippi Valley described by Mark Twain.
The park's steam trains chug past Adventureland, with its swashbuckling 18th
century pirates, the tree house of the Swiss Family Robinson, and a rollercoaster
called Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril, which goes backwards.
From here, the train carries on to Fantasyland where you can see the symbol
of the park, Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant (Sleeping Beauty's Castle),
whose soaring pinnacles and turrets are a spectacular idealized interpretation
of the châteaux of France.
Visions of the future are displayed at Discoveryland, whose tributes to human
invention and imagination are drawn from the works of Leonardo da Vinci, Jules
Verne, HG Wells and Star Wars. Discoveryland has proven the most popular of
all the areas and is one of the few that was enlarged in 1995.
A noteworthy addition was a new rollercoaster called De la Terre à la
Lune, which emulates an earth-to-moon transit as conceived by Jules Verne and
is called Space Mountain at the other Disney parks. Another popular attraction
here is an in-theatre experience, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, where 3D animation
gives the illusion that the audience has been shrunk.
Village Disney entertainment centre, whose indoor/outdoor layout is a cross
between a California mall and the Coney Island boardwalk, is just outside the
boundaries of the fenced-in acreage containing the bulk of Disneyland's attractions.
The complex accommodates dance clubs, snack bars, restaurants, souvenir shops,
and bars for adults who want to escape from the children for a while. Unlike
the rest of the park, admission to Village Disney is free, so it attracts night
owls from Paris and its suburbs who wouldn't otherwise be particularly interested
in the park itself.
