Disneyland Paris, originally known as Euro Disney Resort, is a world-renowned theme park and entertainment resort in Marne-la-Vallée, a suburb of Paris, France. It is the only Disney resort in Europe and has been enchanting visitors since its opening in 1992.
Disneyland Paris consists of two main theme parks. Disneyland Park captures the essence of Disney magic, featuring iconic attractions like Sleeping Beauty Castle, Space Mountain, and Pirates of the Caribbean. The park is divided into five themed lands: Main Street, U.S.A., Fantasyland, Adventureland, Frontierland, and Discoveryland.
The second park is the Walt Disney Studios Park, which is dedicated to the world of cinema and animation. It includes attractions such as The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Ratatouille: The Adventure, and Crush’s Coaster. The park is themed around Hollywood, animation, production, and behind-the-scenes magic.
