Disneyland Paris: A World Of Magic

Disney characters in a lively parade at Disneyland Paris

What is different about Disneyland Paris? It’s in French! Disneyland is more than just an attraction in any location where it exists. The one at Paris serves the European market; gone are the days when a Parisian family has to travel to California to experience the fun of Disneyland.

Located in Marne-la-Vallée, and formerly known as Euro-Disney, Disneyland Paris is a resort, fully self-contained, that includes two theme parks: Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park. Expect to enjoy events, shows, rides, and the classic Disney logo castle. You can visit for a day, or make a week-long vacation of it, staying on site in themed accommodations.

Disney characters will be there to greet you and your children. Classics like Mickey Mouse and Snow White are joined now by Elsa and Anna from “Frozen”. They wander about the premises as well as star in musical theatre shows. While Disneyland Paris is oriented towards kids, adults will find happy memories of their childhoods resurrected. It’s a busy place, so pack your patience in your luggage.
