Disneyland Resort Paris

Opened in 1992, Disneyland Paris, located within the Disneyland Resort Paris, was the Walt Disney Company’s first attempt to win the hearts of the Europeans. The park is very much like its American cousin, featuring sections like Mainstreet USA, Discoveryland, Adventureland, Frontierland and Fantasyland, however, enthusiasts rave that the more modern engineering of the French Parks make for a superior experience. Although locals took some time to warm to the park, the resort’s success eventually led to Disney opening a second theme park, Walt Disney Studios Park, in March 2002.
