Everything from Tokyo Disney Resort and Hong Kong Disney Resort, including trip reports and photo tours of Tokyo Disneyland, Tokyo DisneySea and Hong Kong Disneyland.
A Sparkling Christmas at Hong Kong Disneyland showers the entire park with joyous moments. This year, the all-new Puppets in the Park brings imaginative stories to life every evening. Three puppet shows are specially staged at the new themed lands at the park: Toy Story Land, Mystic Point and Grizzly Gulch.
I’ve said this many times, over and over: Hong Kong Disneyland is one of my favourite theme parks. It has changed so much since it opened! Three new themed lands, and a new dark ride that has left the world in awe. And then the park recently announced the new Iron Man attraction.
Heralded as the marina of the future, Port Discovery is a futuristic port at Tokyo DisneySea.
Unlike the other exotic destinations at Tokyo DisneySea, Port Discovery has a very metallic look – bright gold and teal panels dress the port, creating an imaginative future that is flourishing with technological innovations and explorations.
Critter Country is the smallest themed area in Tokyo Disneyland and home to the classic Splash Mountain attraction.
While this area was built in its own little corner to house Splash Mountain, its rustic charm certainly feels like an in-between of Westernland and Fantasyland. Splash Mountain is also nestled next to the Haunted Mansion (although it’s impossible to see either attraction from the ride and queue). The other areas of Critter Country, including its shops and eateries, are extensions of the Splash Mountain attraction.
Westernland is the Frontierland at Tokyo Disneyland. It brings the same old-time sights and sounds of America’s Old West. By area alone, Westernland is the largest themed zone in Tokyo Disneyland, due to the immense size of the Rivers of America.
The name of “Westernland” was chosen as it made more sense in the Japanese language as compared to Frontier.
Toy Story Mania! is an indoor interactive dark ride that uses 3D projection and special effects. It brings guests through several carnival games that are highly entertaining and engaging.
This is the key attraction at Toyville Trolley Park – an old fashioned, Coney Island style, amusement park that’s tucked at Broadway and Park Avenue, American Waterfront.
Tower of Terror is the tallest and most majestic building at American Waterfront, Tokyo DisneySea. Also known as Hotel Hightower, this exquisite hotel is owned by eccentric millionaire Harrison Hightower III.
American Waterfront at Tokyo DisneySea depicts scenes from New York and New England of the United States in the 1920s era. Directly connected to Mediterranean Harbor via a bridge over the waterways of Venice, this massive section (I believe the largest in the park, going by land area) is themed into two sections – New York Harbor and Cape Cod Village.
Pirates of the Caribbean is a boat ride located at Adventureland, Tokyo Disneyland. It brings guests on a voyage through time, narrating a story of pirates during (and after) the golden age of piracy. Originally designed in the 1960s, the ride is still impressive even today, and is to me one of the most amazing rides of all time. This version, at Tokyo Disneyland, was built in the 1980s. The attraction eventually inspired a major film series with the same name.
Adventureland at Tokyo Disneyland is a mix of places, but still holds the original spirit of being a land of exploration and exotic adventures. It is home to classic Disneyland attractions such as Pirates of the Caribbean and Jungle Cruise.
