Disneyland California

The world's first Disneyland is not very new, but you can feel the Disney culture as soon as you enter the park. Across from Disneyland is the Adventure Park, which is more suitable for older children and adults, while younger children are more suitable here. There are many large parking lots around Disney. If you want to park closer to the park, you need to arrive early. If you arrive late, you need to follow the navigation to find the surrounding parking lots. There are shuttle buses from the parking lots to the park entrance. When you get off, remember the location and wait for the shuttle bus at the same place when you get back.

Disney has several parking lots, all with names. We navigated to the Toy Story parking lot, which was $25 a day with no time limit, and then took the shuttle bus into the park. It was incredibly crowded, and it wasn't even a holiday.

First, check in at the traditional Disneyland ~ everyone’s ticket price is different.

As Valentine's Day approaches, there are several more decorations for tourists to take photos.

I had read many guides on buying fast passes, but I couldn’t register on the app, so I had to bite the bullet and queue up.

It's a small world! It's said to be an extended version of Shanghai, which is quite good. After the boat tour, I kept singing "Small World" in my head until the evening...

The queue for Snow White's Adventure is also very fast~

The lake was frozen over that day, and the blue sky, white snow, and bright sunshine made the scene look like a postcard. We walked out onto the frozen lake to watch people fishing on the ice. It was a truly relaxing and enjoyable experience.

California Disneyland is located in the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, United States. Since its opening on July 17, 1955, California Disneyland has become one of the most popular theme parks in the world and is hailed as the happiest place on earth.

The Disney family, led by Mickey Mouse, welcomes new members every year, and Disneyland, along with its constantly evolving hardware and software, has become a must-see attraction for visitors to Los Angeles. To date, over 550 million visitors have visited Disneyland in California, including presidents, royalty, and world-famous celebrities.

There are too many people. Who says Americans don't want to queue? Some projects take 80 minutes to shoot, which is unbearable. The projects are a bit childish. Except for a bungee jumping machine and a big roller coaster, the others are not exciting.

The park closes at midnight, and the shuttle bus from the park to the parking lot runs until 1 a.m. The parking lot charges $25 a day.



You must buy tickets online in advance or bring cash. When I went there on a Monday, I still had to queue for half an hour to buy tickets with a credit card. There was a separate window for cash purchases, and I could buy them in less than 10 minutes.



Ticket prices have increased. In June 2019, a single-day ticket was $149 for adults and $141 for children (after tax, $164 for adults and $156 for children). An additional $50 can be converted into a pass for the adjacent California Adventure Park (but Disneyland is already enough for a full day).



Unlike Universal Studios, where you have to pay to buy a Fastpass, Disney's Fastpass is free. You take your ticket to each popular area and exchange it for a Fastpass. The Fastpass will be marked with the time you should arrive. When you are queuing in the Fastpass line, the staff will check both your ticket and the Fastpass ticket.



This is my fourth time to Disneyland (once in Orlando, once in Hong Kong, and twice here), mainly to bring my daughter here to play. I didn't find anything else new, but I thought the big comet in the fireworks at night was really magical. It was just like every Disney opening, a big star with a long tail behind it. The star was obviously very big, and the tail was thin at first and then thick and very long.

The service level is the highest among all the parks I have been to. All the waiters greeted me with a smile.

The first time I went to Disneyland, it was incredibly crowded. The queues for a single attraction lasted over three hours. I don't know how things are going now.

Like all Disney parks, it always brings endless joy to people.

Arriving at Disneyland felt like arriving at an amusement park in China. There were crowds of people waiting for the park to open, and there were also student activities—perhaps they were on a spring outing. Seeing so many people in the US is truly rare; it felt like returning to my homeland. There were two lines to enter the park: first, for security, where you had to have your bag checked. For some reason, I had a brain glitch and brought a selfie stick. I'd read in the guidebook that selfie sticks aren't allowed at Disneyland, but I completely forgot about it that day. The guy who checked it was a portly guy. I asked if I could leave it in my bag, but he said, "Either leave it at the hotel or give it to me. I won't give it back!" Okay, so I handed it in.

After passing security, you can choose to enter California Adventure Park or Disneyland. The Adventure Park is on the left, which has many young people, while the traditional Disneyland has more family groups.



We bought our tickets from Zuzuche, printed them out beforehand, and scanned the QR code to enter. It was very convenient and relatively inexpensive. Upon entering the park, we realized our previous guide wasn't enough. We were completely lost as to which attractions to visit first and how to get a FastPass. Thankfully, we quickly divided the work: I was responsible for deciding the next attraction based on my guide, while Mr. M planned the route. We found our teamwork to be quite effective, and we managed to try almost every attraction along the way. With the exception of the relatively unremarkable children's rides, all were quite enjoyable.

There were so many people and the sun was so strong. No one in foreign countries used umbrellas, so we could only spray sunscreen over and over again...



The location for the fireworks show was really disappointing. We walked around the central square twice and the staff kept telling us to keep going and not to stop. It was not until later that we realized that we could get through the cordon.

Since we both had seen Disney's fireworks in China, the quality of the fireworks was incomparable. When the music started, classic Disney animation characters appeared on the buildings and castles on both sides of the road, and the fireworks, Mr. M and I couldn't help but be moved.

We entered the park at 9 am and came out at 10 pm. As we hadn't adjusted to the time difference, we were both extremely tired from the sun and the walking. But I am very glad that I didn't miss the fireworks show that night, because now I don't remember how tired I was, but the fireworks show with the chorus is deeply imprinted in my mind. I still tear up when I think about it. This should be one of our best memories.

As soon as I entered the park, I forgot all my travel tips and didn't even bother getting fast passes for popular attractions. I simply rode whatever caught my eye. So, we rode the Snow White train and the carousel, both with the kids, which was a true blast from childhood. The carousel was my favorite amusement park attraction as a child. I'd also ridden it at Orlando Disney before, and the line was incredibly long. Perhaps because we were midweek, it wasn't too crowded this time, so I was able to ride it in no time.

We then spent a long time wandering the park looking for a restroom, only to remember to check the app and finally find our way. After a long morning of wandering, we ate a rather unappetizing lunch and continued wandering the park. The number of visitors surged in the afternoon, and since we didn't have a fastpass, we had no choice but to wait in line. We tried a few less-crowded attractions, then queued for Indiana Jones, a ride highly recommended by a friend. Mom found it incredibly thrilling. There were a few sections where it was completely pitch black, which scared me, but she remained completely calm.

I was really scared of the whitewater rafting, so I gave up on queuing. Since I had dinner with a friend that evening and needed to leave early, I queued up to take pictures with Mickey and Minnie, then took the train around the park. That was the end of my Disney trip.

There are huge pumpkins (special dolls for Halloween) in the square after entering the park where you can take photos. If you like it, it is recommended to take photos in advance, otherwise there will be more and more people. When we left the park around 11:30 pm, there were still people queuing to take photos~

Since there are so many games to play, I have listed a few of the most impressive games here and recommend them to everyone~

1. Indiana Jones's Adventure is a scene where you ride a simulated car through the jungle. I recommend it.

2. Splash Mountain: Take a wooden boat ride through the mountains and ride a water roller coaster. It's quite thrilling and highly recommended!

3. Small World: Perfect for children, quiet and peaceful, the park is well-made. It's a great place to sit and relax after enjoying the thrilling rides.

4. Star Tours: I recommend getting an express ticket in advance, as the line can be over an hour. The entire video is about three minutes long, and the visuals are great; a shorter wait would have been much better.

5. Other projects: Pirates of the Caribbean, Disneyland Monorail, and Disneyland Railroad are all relatively large and easy to ride. They are suitable for family outings and are recommended for families with children.

Playing also requires physical strength. I recommend everyone to buy a turkey leg. One is enough for two people to last a whole day. You don’t need to eat the others. The taste is also quite good.

Although the Disney in California is not big, it is also very fun. Every Disney is a little different!

The world's first Disney, although the facilities are relatively old, but this is where the dream began, you must come, the turkey legs are delicious.

Regarding parking in Disneyland, I must give a detailed introduction, because we wandered around there for a long time before we found the parking lot: Navigate to "Disneyland parking", which is the exclusive parking building of Disneyland. Self-driving cars must park here and then take the free Tram (tram) into the park.

There is a driveway on each floor, and you can drive directly upstairs. Unlike domestic parking buildings, you have to go up one floor at a time after driving in and remember the floor number where you park. When you pick up your car, you take the long escalator that goes directly to each floor.

No matter which floor you park on, be sure to park near Area 9A (the parking areas on one side of the rectangular building are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9, while the areas on the other side are numbered A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H, and the numbers are the same on every floor). The escalator downstairs is in Area 9A, which makes walking down the stairs the shortest distance. We parked in Area 5H and walked for a long time before we found the escalator.

After going downstairs, I went through security first. Then I took the tram. It took only a few minutes to get to the entrance of Disneyland.

Tips: You can bring food in, unlike Hong Kong Disneyland where you are not allowed to bring any food in.

I sigh that American children are so lucky. Every weekend, many parents bring their children to Disneyland because they buy annual passes to the park and there won’t be as many people as in China.

Strollers are parked anywhere on the roadside and there is no one to supervise them. You can just come back and pick them up when you are done playing.

At Disneyland, I fully experienced the diversity and inclusiveness of American culture. The women, regardless of size, were confident and cheerful. I even saw a man in a wheelchair, using oxygen, enjoying the joyful atmosphere of Disneyland.

At 9:30, the fireworks display began. Americans actually love fireworks displays, too. Everyone arrived in front of the Sleeping Beauty Castle early, waiting. It was crowded, but not crowded. Everyone stood to watch or take photos, with plenty of space between them, which was a very comfortable feeling.

But just before the show started, the announcement came that it might be cancelled. Halfway through the fireworks, before the climax even began, the announcement came back that due to high-altitude clouds, the show couldn't continue. Everyone had to leave with regret.

Tips: Remember to bring a cup or bottle to drink drinking water.

Disneyland Park in California is divided into two parts: Disneyland and California Adventure. Since we were traveling with children, we naturally chose Disneyland. Disneyland Park in California is the oldest Disneyland and has undergone numerous expansions, resulting in numerous sections. However, none of them are large, and the attractions are very compact. With proper planning, you can easily enjoy most of them in a single day (because the children are afraid, we basically skipped the roller coasters).

Remember to use the Disneyland app; you can get a FastPass on your phone for a small fee. The whole experience was fantastic. If you want to enjoy all the attractions (including California Adventure), it will probably take about three days.

Disneyland in California has tons of trains, a testament to Walt Disney's love of trains. In the waiting area, staff paint on the floor. These details are key to Disneyland's success as the world's premier theme park. It just so happened that during Pixar Days, the month-long parade featured Pixar characters, but it still felt a bit inferior to Disneyland's.

1. Before visiting Disneyland in Los Angeles, be sure to do your research and choose which park you want to visit. Then, be sure to download the app. There are two parks: Disneyland Los Angeles and Disney California Adventure. They enter from opposite sides. I should have chosen Adventure, because I actually fell asleep at Disneyland. They're both too childish for adults.

2. The Disneyland parking lot is also quite large, with several levels, divided into self-parking and valet parking. The self-parking area is open-air, so it can get a bit sunny if you park all day. However, Disneyland has a convenient parking spot where you can enter and exit the park for free with a parking ticket. If you've had enough for the day, you can leave Disneyland for food and drinks and then return for the magic show and fireworks from 8 PM to 10 PM, which is a must-see at Disneyland. After parking, everyone needs to take a free shuttle to the ticket office.

3. The express ticket to Disneyland is not expensive, only $10 per person. This express ticket can only be used to reserve the project and time you want to play on the App. After you finish playing, you can reserve the fast track for the next project.

4. I went to Hong Kong Disneyland many years ago. The entrances of all Disneyland locations around the world look the same, with a lawn slope and a circular train. When visiting Disneyland, both adults and children will have some Disney elements on them, such as Mickey’s ears, Mickey hats, and Mickey T-shirts. Especially the babies, all wearing Cinderella and Snow White costumes, are so into the show. It’s really fun to look at these dolls.

I rode It's a Small World again (the one in Hong Kong is exactly the same), went on the mild whitewater rafting ride, attended Mickey's House, saw two Disney musicals, and ate turkey drumsticks, candy bars, and hamburgers. Since they're all geared toward kids, the thrills weren't particularly thrilling. Hahahaha, it truly is a childhood dream destination. Of course, there's a new Haunted Mansion, which is the only attraction in Disneyland that I'm even slightly excited about. I noticed the line was mostly made up of adults. The glasses-free 3D effect is truly amazing.

6. The most adrenaline-filled part of my visit to Disneyland was the float parade. 1-2 hours before the scheduled time, many people started sitting on the roadside to reserve seats, just to get close to the character actors from various Disney cartoons and wave to them.

7. Disney's Mickey Mouse Magic Show and fireworks are absolutely worth seeing. You had to start reserving your spot two hours in advance. Mickey Mouse's Magic Show uses water effects, which is definitely worth the money. The Pirates of the Caribbean ship was also bobbing around the lake, performing acrobatics, and Captain Jack Sparrow was a real eye-catcher. Of course, the princesses and princes from Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella, Snow White, and Frozen were all dancing on another boat, which was so romantic. The crowd only left after the fireworks faded. Everyone was so satisfied and moved. The fireworks and magic show were the best! It was worth waiting so late.

Disneyland is a theme park with eight main theme parks: Main Street, Adventureland, New Orleans Square, Animal Kingdom, Pioneerland, Mickey's Toontown, DreamWorks, and Epic. Central Avenue is lined with elegant old-fashioned carriages, quaint shops, restaurants, and teahouses.

On the eve of Halloween, a traditional Western holiday, Disneyland is already filled with Halloween symbols—jack-o'-lanterns...

Disney is a place suitable for people of all ages, as long as you still have a childlike heart

Disneyland has many attractions for younger children, but guests of all ages can explore the magic, joy, and excitement of Disneyland.

Warm reminder: No matter where you play or what you play, safety first is always important! The same goes for Disney.

During peak season at Hollywood and Disneyland, crowds and lines are often long, meaning you might not be able to enjoy many popular attractions in a day. Therefore, you can purchase a slightly more expensive priority ticket to skip the lines and enjoy first-come, first-served status. Being in the spotlight can make you feel incredibly privileged. Alternatively, you can request a single-entry ticket at the entrance (meaning you're not sharing a seat with family or friends, but instead wait for a seat to become available after others have joined). This also allows you to skip the line, but if you try to take advantage and try to sit with someone you know, you'll be immediately asked to leave. Another option is to get a FassPass for expedited entry, saving time in line. Since not every attraction offers FassPasses, and only one FassPass per ticket can be drawn at a time, and the number is limited, it's recommended to rush to popular attractions upon entering the park to pick one up. In short, you can choose your ticket purchasing and waiting method based on the travel season, the age of your group, and other factors.

The famous Disneyland, if you have been abroad, you must experience it

The Disney Castle is really pitifully small... Inside, you can do makeup and hair for the princesses and princes, but you should make an appointment. If you are interested, you can find out in advance!

There are various Disney characters wandering around the park. If you are lucky, you will meet them while playing the attractions and can take photos with them. The Disney tour is not on the same level as the Universal Studios tour.

I recommend everyone to go to Disneyland and travel light. If you want to eat something, you can buy it directly in the park.

Before our trip, I read a lot of posts about Disneyland California, including tips on what to do first and what to do later. You can also do some research before your visit. However, we bought the off-season weekday tickets, and we only visited Disneyland, so we just went wherever we wanted.



However, there is a little tip that is quite useful. There is a commercial street outside the park. Don't rush to go there. Wait until the park opens in the morning and go in to play the attractions directly. The commercial street is open until very late at night, so it is not too late to come out and stroll around slowly after the park closes.

At the end of the day, I had already tried all the rides that required a fast pass. It's true that getting a fast pass makes sense; the rides that don't require a line are much more fun than the other rides that do require a line.



Because the main street was under maintenance when we went there, there was no parade during the day and no fireworks show at night.

So I could only watch the Fantasia performance in the evening.

Oh, and a reminder: if you go to take a photo with Mickey, remember to bring your own camera or high-definition phone, and ask the staff to take a photo with their own device. This way you can save $10 for printing the photo.

There are many little ducks in the park, and they are not afraid of people at all

Although there aren't as many high-tech rides here, we still loved it. We prioritized playing games not available in other parks and got to see the homes of the various characters in Mickey Town for the first time. We entered the park at 11 am and left at 10 pm. The children, who hadn't slept all day, screamed with excitement at the sight of Mickey and Minnie, completely waking up from their sleep! We were even more excited for the Halloween party.

It's only 15 minutes away from the hotel. The queue is very fast and you don't need fp.

It might be suitable for younger people, as the excitement level is not high. It's good for eating and wandering around. What impressed me most was the evening fireworks show and the greasy turkey legs... It's best to go 1-2 hours before the fireworks show to reserve space. There will be a lot of people there, and if you go too late, you may not even have a place to stand.

I was planning to walk through Downtown Disney and enter through the main entrance, but I stumbled upon the Tomorrowland train station, which lets you enter directly. The best part is, you barely have to wait in line! It's a huge time saver. From the train, I could see the long queue at the main entrance... I was so glad I'd already gotten in. The weather was great.

About FP:

Similar to China, popular attractions will have FPs. FP redemption locations are usually not far from the attraction itself, so ask nearby staff; these locations are often quite hidden. It's generally self-service, with staff on hand to provide guidance. If it's a busy weekday, you can use the FP immediately after receiving it.



A naive kid like me excitedly exchanged FP for It's a Small World when we found the exchange point. To be honest, it was quite hot waiting in line outside to bask in the sun.

Everything in Mickey's Storybook is super cute and exactly the same as in the cartoon

Then I went to the theater to watch a musical, I think it was called Mickey and the Magic Map

When we went to see the float parade, the sky suddenly turned overcast. The characters in the parade were all from Fox movies.

Disneyland is divided into two parks: the traditional Disneyland and California Adventure. We bought a one-day ticket and after passing security, we had to choose a park to visit. Since we had experienced the traditional Disneyland in Shanghai, I decisively took (or kidnapped) Ye Xiaopang to the more exciting Adventure Park, while my friends chose the traditional park.

There are so many people, so many important things to say three times. My only favorite is the big turkey leg. It is a place suitable for children. Adults recommend going to Universal Studios.

The castle was cloudy. Although it was Friday morning, there were very few people, probably because the weather was not very good. The queue would not exceed 30 minutes.

During the off-season, many Disney attractions are closed, such as the Ferris wheel and roller coaster, so you can only take photos as souvenirs.

This is the first time I know there are painting classes there, so cute :)

Since it is Disneyland, do we need a reason to recommend it?

We bought a one-day, two-park ticket. It might have been off-season, but aside from waiting in line for nearly two hours at the Adventure Park race car, most rides took 15-30 minutes. That was because it happened to be broken, so it was out of service for a while, which pushed back a lot of people passing through, so we were so slow. My biggest regret of the trip was that the Adventure Park roller coaster and Ferris wheel were under maintenance, so I didn't get to ride them. I guess I have to go again, haha.

Download the Disney app in advance. You can get a pass for $10 there, but we didn't, but we should have. After entering the park, go to Soar Over the Horizon to get your pass. Then, go to the water ride next to it. Please buy a disposable raincoat from China and keep your feet elevated. Don't ask me why, haha. Then, check the time to play a small ride. Go to Soar Over the Horizon according to your schedule, then queue up for the car races. We were afraid we wouldn't miss the bungee jump. Then, head straight to Disneyland. From there, you can play the rides in order of schedule. Compared to Shanghai, the wait time is very short. Just remember to bring a raincoat for any water rides. The evening fireworks show is at 9:30 PM, starting at 2 PM in Disneyland and continuing until 9:15 PM. Except for the childish ones, we got to enjoy everything! You don't need to reserve a spot for the fireworks; they go high, so a little distance is fine, as long as you can ignore the animation on the castle. Saving a spot right in front of the castle is a waste of time. The Los Angeles Disneyland fireworks are amazing. Even better than those in Tokyo!

I personally drove there on May 7, 2018. It was off-season, so the park opened at 9:00 AM (please download the Disneyland app for specific opening times). Google located the Mickey and Friends Parking Structure. We arrived at 8:30 AM and paid $20 cash for the entire day. I asked the staff if we could pay $35 for priority parking, but they said they only had general parking. Following the car in front of you and the staff's instructions, you should drive to your designated parking spot. Generally, cars are parked in order, with no spaces left in between. Remember your parking area and follow the flow of people. After exiting the escalator, you'll see your parking level (Disney typically uses famous characters, like Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck). Follow the signs to the park entrance and take the tram, a multi-car carriage designed like a car. Follow the flow of people to enter the park. One final note: We found it difficult to find the Fast Pass machine each time we entered the park, so we bought a Max Pass on the app ($20 for the two of us). This feature allows you to book a FP pass online without having to change to a FP machine, and then use the FP lane. We were able to do all the popular attractions in one day and not feel tired at all. We thought it would be less crowded during the off-season, but it was still packed, so buying the Max Pass right after entering the park was a real smart move.

In Los Angeles, the famous theme parks include Universal Studios and Disneyland. Friends who like theme parks can visit both, as they each have their own characteristics. If you have limited time like us, especially if you are traveling with the elderly who are not that fond of theme parks, you can choose only one.

Since all of us had been to Universal Studios Singapore but never to Disneyland, we finally chose Disneyland as the destination for this trip.

Disneyland

Disneyland is a theme park located southeast of downtown Los Angeles in Anaheim, California, approximately a 20-minute drive from downtown Los Angeles (on the freeway). In 1955, American animation master Walt Disney founded the first Disneyland near Los Angeles, known as the "Happiest Place on Earth." After more than 50 years of expansion, Disneyland Los Angeles has integrated the best of Disney theme parks around the world, offering visitors the most unforgettable entertainment experiences, the latest adventures, and entertainment attractions. Visitors can experience the most novel experiences, endless joy, and the unique magic of Disney.

Disneyland in Los Angeles is divided into two parts: Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park. Disneyland is more suitable for younger guests or those like us who don't enjoy too many thrilling rides. California Adventure Park is more suitable for adults or those who enjoy thrilling rides.

Disneyland consists of eight theme parks: Main Street, Adventureland, New Orleans Square, Animal Kingdom, Pioneerland, Mickey's Toontown, DreamWorks, and Epic. Central Avenue is lined with elegant old-fashioned carriages, quaint shops, restaurants, and teahouses. Walking through Disney World, you'll often encounter actors dressed as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Snow White, and the Seven Dwarfs.

Getting There: Take MTA bus No. 460 from Figueroa St. in downtown for about 120 minutes. Alternatively, drive from downtown to the Santa Ana Freeway, heading south on Interstate 5, and exit at Harbor Blvd. (The journey takes 50 minutes.) If driving, after arriving at the parking lot, take the Disneyland shuttle to the main gate. The shuttle is charged (free with admission).

Opening hours: The opening hours vary from day to day, usually opening at 8:00 and closing from 22:00 to 0:00

Ticket prices vary daily, with a one-day adult ticket ranging from $95 to $119. A two-day ticket (one park per day) is approximately $195, and a two-day ticket (multiple parks per day) is approximately $135. Discounted tickets are sometimes available on Taobao, so if you're planning a trip to Disneyland, check the prices frequently.

The two parks combined can be played for two days, and they are quite large. Land is similar to the one in Japan, but even if you get FP, you can still play until the park closes. It is larger than Adventure, but Adventure is very unique, with new Marvel elements. I love cars and California scream.

Here's a driving guide. Find Mickey and Friends Park on Google Maps. Drive in for $20, or choose the preferred option for $35, saving you five minutes of walking. Park, go downstairs, look for the Tram sign, go through security, and then board the train. Five minutes later, you'll arrive at both park entrances. Choose your side and enter. Tickets will be checked at this point; confirm your ticket type (single-day, two-day, single-park, two-park, annual pass, etc.).



The same goes for the return trip. Get on the bus where you got off and queue up by car. Try to queue towards the front where there are fewer people.

I highly recommend visiting Disneyland during the holidays, especially Christmas and Halloween. I went during Christmas, and the California winter wasn't too cold, making it a perfect time for a trip. Disneyland was less crowded than I'd expected, and the holiday atmosphere was intense. The atmosphere was different than usual, and Santa Claus was the main attraction.

http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/8633594.html This is a full complaint post, guaranteed to be detailed and true, but it is completely subjective, so you can refer to it at your discretion.

Disneyland and the California sunshine;

steak for breakfast at the hotel and turkey legs in the park;

The ubiquitous Mickey Mouse logo and the fantastic game settings;

Not just for kids, there's something fun for everyone!

Continue to check in Disneyland, the third one I have been to after Hong Kong and Shanghai. Wow [victory]

The park is about the same size as the one in Shanghai. The staff are very nice and the queues are not very long. It's great [Yeah]

From 8:30 in the morning to 9:00 in the evening, I was in the park for 12 and a half hours. I barely rested and tried all the attractions I wanted to play. I’m cheering for myself [hehe]

I like Disney games, which are suitable for a timid person like me... I feel that everything has become cute. My best friend and I, both of whom are poor at English, have played a lot of games. Every time the service staff explained the game instructions in English, we were both confused, but it didn’t affect the fun. Someone said, why are American amusement parks such as Disney and Universal Studios so popular for a long time, while China’s amusement facilities may be better than theirs, but they are not as famous? Because they sell dreams, not hardware facilities, and the speed of dream updates cannot be matched by equipment... I think it makes sense o(∩_∩)o

I've been to Disneyland in Los Angeles three times, each time with different people. It's truly huge, and I find something new every time I go. The facilities are older and can't compare to those in Hong Kong or Shanghai, but I always feel like it's the original.

Disney's first theme park has many recreational facilities not available in other countries

A backpack, a few books, all the favorite songs, a one-way ticket, and a free and easy heart.

A must-see! It is recommended to arrive early or stay near Disneyland, as the traffic there is congested and there are many people. After entering, first understand the various performance times of the day so that you can plan your itinerary properly.

At Christmas time, all the places are decorated with lights and it is very beautiful.

As the world's first Disneyland, it is still worth a visit!

California Adventure Park and Theme Park, if you have enough time, I recommend going to both

Be sure to study FP carefully. If there are not many people in the queue, you can queue for the FP project yourself.

It's so big and full of fun! It's perfect for a kid like me who never grew up. You have to make good use of the FastPass system to get to most of the attractions in one day. There are FastPass machines at the entrances to most popular attractions. You get a ticket with the entry time written on it. You can skip the line by returning to the attraction at the designated time.

Disneyland in Los Angeles was the first to open, having opened over 60 years ago. It's a little over an hour's drive from downtown Los Angeles. You can also join a day trip to Disneyland and Universal Studios, which also includes Sunset Boulevard and the Walk of Fame. This amusement park was originally designed to offer an offline experience for Disney's entertainment programs, what we'd call an offline-to-offline experience today. Therefore, those familiar with Disney animations will find it particularly appealing; doing some pre-visit research will also help you gain more.

There are a lot of people, especially children. You have to wait at least half an hour to play. It would be better to bring children with you. I don’t think it’s necessary for adults.

Today’s theme is to take pictures, take pictures, take pictures until my hands are numb and my face is stiff. After dinner, I went early to grab a good spot to watch the fireworks.

Looking at the map, while it's not huge, the structures of all Disney parks around the world are similar, but there's a ton of attractions. Due to time constraints, we only went to Disneyland, and it turned out to be quite a stretch. Visiting both parks in one day is definitely not possible. Plus, Disneyland is inhumanely open until midnight. We left after 11 a.m. and couldn't even keep our eyes open. For those with more money, opt for the VIP tour!

The APP is very important. It can effectively display information such as the location of cartoon characters, waiting time, restaurant reservations, etc.

Look carefully at all the signs on the map. FP stands for Fastpass (you can get it right next to the ride. You can only reserve one at a time with your ticket. It doesn't mean you don't have to queue, just that you can queue a little less). Single-passenger channels will also be marked with single rider. If you see a red triangle, it means a thrilling ride. I accidentally entered one this time...

P.S. There is also Disney Adventure Park nearby, which has exciting rides. Don’t miss it if you love thrilling rides.

It was fun. I'd only been to Hong Kong before, and it was too small. This place was great. It was crowded, but very organized. We were jet-lagged and sleepy, so we left at 2 p.m. and only visited the ones with the least lines. We also bought a lot of souvenirs, which was a bonus.

Entering the park a little after 10:00 AM, I spent my days searching for places and waiting in line. On average, I could only get one entry per hour, so by the end, I couldn't tell whether I was still feeling satisfied or disappointed. Since my previous two visits to the park had been disappointing, I'd like to offer a few tips to help future visitors avoid the pitfalls.

1. You can prepare snacks the day before entering the park, because you have to queue up for everything and you may not be able to complete all the activities, so don’t waste time buying things.

2. The second point is also preparation. It is recommended that you download an app from the official website before visiting the park. The app will show the waiting time for each project. You can choose the order of play based on the waiting time.

3. California has plenty of sunshine, and the sun shines brightly from 12 noon to around 4 pm. During this time, you can choose to take some water-related rides. At the same time, you should avoid taking such rides after the sun sets, after all, it is still a bit cold at night.

4. There's a map at the entrance, so grab one! It'll indicate which attractions offer FastPasses, which are usually available at machines near each attraction. If you're interested in a popular attraction, it's recommended to pick up a FastPass to speed up your entry.

5. Each park has some popular attractions, so it's recommended to use your FastPass on them first, like Space Mountain. This attraction was one of the things that motivated me to visit Disneyland a second time. Upon entering, the app showed an 80-minute wait. So I decided to try something else first, hoping it would be less crowded. However, the wait was incredibly long, and when I went to get my FastPass later, it was closed. So, I had to give up. What a shame!

Okay, let’s stop complaining and move on to suggestions.

6. Avoid standing on the main path when watching the fireworks at night. Everyone understands that the main path is centrally located and offers a clear view. However, given the sheer number of visitors, it's impossible for the staff to allow anyone to remain there permanently. Therefore, it's best to find a sidewalk with no obstructions in front of you and ensure you're not blocking traffic.

Some people might stay there early to occupy space, which is fine, but I still hope to play with other things for a while.

7. Friends with strollers should note that when taking the shuttle bus from the Disney parking lot to the park, please wait in the first two rows of each car. The first two rows of seats are facing each other.

The entrance is a bit difficult to find; I walked around several times and asked many people before I finally found it. There are a lot of souvenir shops. The attractions aren't thrilling. It's often visited with children, and taking photos and group photos is a common sight, but you can't always see them. The times and locations change constantly. If you enjoy thrilling attractions, I recommend California Adventure. It's the best choice for children.

You must go! A place full of childhood longing and childlike innocence.

It was too hot, so we played in It's a Small World, had lunch, and then left. The LA sun was so hot it made me dizzy. Disney itself is excellent, and I can't stand the queues~~~~

Ticketing was quick. I contacted customer service and they said it would be issued immediately. I received it less than 10 minutes after I took my photo. Buying tickets here is much cheaper than buying them on the official website or at the park. No need to print, just scan the QR code to enter. However, I recommend that if you want to get a Fast Pass, ask the staff to exchange it for a physical ticket upon entering the park. There's a machine near the entrance where you put your ticket in for the ride you want to go to, and a Fast Pass ticket will come out. It shows the time limit for the ride you can use the Fast Pass for, as well as when you can get Fast Passes for other rides. I was able to do a lot of rides in one day, which was a huge time saver!

This time, Xiaolu and Xiaoqi chose the kid-friendly side, which is definitely worth a visit. However, a reminder: don't bring your selfie sticks, as they'll be confiscated at the entrance. Qiqi's was confiscated, which was a shame. The park is huge, and while not as overcrowded as in China, it's still incredibly crowded. The many gift shops outside the park are also well worth a visit. In short, Disneyland is truly a place for all ages, as long as you're still a kid at heart.

No matter your age, once you step into Disneyland, all your worries and troubles will vanish! Located in Southern California, Disneyland may not be the largest, but it's the world's first Disneyland. While ticket prices rise every year, the crowds never decrease. We visited during Disney's 60th anniversary Diamond Celebration. Here's how to have a truly enjoyable Disney experience!



A few friendly tips:



Buy your tickets online first! This way you won't have to wait in line to buy tickets on site (remember to print your receipt; it will be exchanged for your official park ticket when you enter).

There are many different types of Disneyland tickets, ranging from 1 to 5 days, as well as annual passes and Southern California resident passes. Generally, the more days you stay, the better the deal. There are also various discounts available online from time to time. (We bought a two-day pass for both Disneyland and California Adventure.)



Guests staying at a Disney hotel will have an Extra Magic Hour every day during their stay, allowing them to enter the park one hour earlier and into both parks (Disneyland on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, and Adventureland on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays).



Some popular attractions in the park offer FastPass (FP), a fast-track entry system. Each ticket allows you to draw only one FP at a time, and each ticket displays the next available time for a FP draw. FastPass tickets typically require no long lines, and you can get in line in just 5-10 minutes.



Recommended attractions: Hyperspace Mountain (rewards FP, most crowded), Indiana Jones Adventure (rewards FP, most crowded), Haunted Mansion (rewards FP, not scary at all), Splash Mountain (rewards FP), Star Tours – The Adventures Continue (rewards FP), Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (rewards FP)



Entertainment: Mickey's Soundsational Parade (4:30 pm), Paint the Night (8:45 pm/10:45 pm on weekends), 60th Anniversary Fireworks Show (9:30 pm) (Actual show times may vary depending on the date, please refer to the official website for details)



Let's just say that the 2-day ticket is $199 per person, which I think is totally worth it. We entered the park at 10 am and started playing non-stop until midnight (the park closed late on the day of its 60th anniversary celebration). From the excitement when entering the park to the yawning when leaving the park, it seemed that the two children fell asleep while walking.

I didn't feel tired after playing all day, and the fireworks show at night was unforgettable

I love It’s a Small World! The Christmas Eve fireworks are so beautiful!

Los Angeles Disneyland, the world's first Disneyland, has been open for 60 years. The rides are similar to those at Hong Kong Disneyland. As adults, we no longer feel the same excitement and thrill as we once did; we simply want to rekindle a long-lost sense of childhood. The parking lot at Disneyland is spacious and well-designed. For convenient access to Universal Studios, we stayed at the Hilton Universal CityWalk for our last two days in Los Angeles. The hotel is just across the street from Universal Studios, accessible via a skywalk. Chinese service is available, and rooms include a kettle and green tea for Chinese guests. If you're not used to Western breakfast, you can even request a Chinese breakfast from the chef. During peak season, lines at Universal Studios can be long, so it's recommended to purchase a front-of-the-line ticket online in advance. While the price is roughly double that of a regular ticket, you can skip the lines completely, saving time and effort. With a front-of-the-line ticket, you can enjoy every attraction by mid-afternoon. Afterward, a visit to the Griffith Observatory and the Walk of Fame is a great way to make your itinerary more balanced.

It's not bad. Although the place is a bit old, it is the first Disneyland after all, so it is still worth a visit. In addition, the service is quite good.

Disneyland is a must-see attraction in Los Angeles. While the attractions aren't particularly thrilling, families with young children can enjoy the ride. Transportation to Disneyland isn't very well developed, so most people drive or charter a car, so be prepared before your visit.

Disneyland, founded in 1955, was the world's first Disneyland park. Later, Disneyland Adventure Park and Resort were added next door. Located in Anaheim, Disneyland is a small town known for its Disneyland-inspired charm. All hotels feature Disney elements, making it a no-brainer to stay at a more expensive Disney resort.

Opening hours: Varies daily, generally from 8am to 11pm.

Parking: Parking is charged per day, and there is a free shuttle to the Disneyland entrance. If you're staying at a nearby hotel, you can walk to Disneyland. If you're staying farther away, you can take a ticketed shuttle.

Tickets: You can buy a one-day ticket for one park, a one-day ticket for two parks, a multi-day ticket for a single park, or a multi-day ticket for multiple parks.

I took my kids to play from 10am to 9pm. There weren't many people lining up, and each project took 10-30 minutes. It was a pity that I didn't come on a weekend and missed the fireworks at night.

It's not as beautiful as I imagined. It's a place you won't go back to after visiting once. Even if you bring your children here, you will go to Universal Studios, which is more worthwhile.

Even though I'm a tomboy, I felt my inner girl sparked when I arrived at Disneyland. It was truly dreamy and worth a visit! It's a little scary for kids, though. Many of the games have horror elements. Maybe it's because we have Halloween in the US, so the kids weren't afraid and were actually quite excited... They were much braver than me, haha.

Disney is crowded, children like it, and the fireworks are good

Disneyland in Los Angeles is divided into two parks: California Adventure and the oldest, Disneyland. Tickets for both are $96. We opted for the traditional Disneyland. We were new to the park, so we took pictures with the characters, spent some time in the Disney store, and finally played the rides.

A reminder: Disneyland offers FastPasses. First, look for the "FP" icon on the map to see games where you can get FP. These are often popular and larger games. Also, you can't claim as many FPs as you want. After you claim your first game FP, it will show you a deadline to return. If you miss that deadline, your FP will be forfeited. You can only claim your second FP after you finish playing that game.

Disneyland Park in Los Angeles: California has two Disney theme parks. Disneyland is suitable for families and children, with more relaxed attractions. California Adventure offers more adult-oriented rides, but if you want to see Disney fireworks, Sleeping Beauty Castle, and more, Disneyland is a better choice. The two parks are across from each other, so exploring both would take two days. Since we didn't have enough energy, we chose the more relaxed Disneyland.

The architecture and environment are amazing, perfect for fulfilling a childhood fairytale dream! It's just that the entertainment options may not be suitable for adults. If you want to have fun, go to Universal Studios. If you want to visit Disneyland, you can still come and have a look.

It's a pretty good place, but it's not very suitable for us: our children are older. It's really fun for many children, and we saw many super happy children along the way.

But this place is actually used for proposals - look at the photos, isn't it so creative!!!

Disneyland is a place that evokes countless nostalgic memories for children and adults alike. Whether it's good or not can't be judged in isolation. I've always had an insatiable love for Disneyland. While the one in Los Angeles isn't as big as the one in Orlando, it's the original Disneyland, so it has more history and a more unique feel. When I went there, Star Wars was at its peak, dominating the entire park. I recommend arriving early and choosing a hotel near Anaheim, which is an easy walk to Disneyland. I bought a CityPass that included a 3-day Disneyland ticket. You can also choose a single-day or multi-day ticket.

Disneyland truly has something for everyone. Across the street is California Adventure, but you can't really see it all in one day. The evening light shows and fireworks are a must-see.
