Disneyland California Basic Information

Disneyland California is the smaller of the two American parks. Compared with Walt Disney World’s four parks and two water parks, Disneyland has only two theme parks: Disneyland and Disney’s California Adventure.

Disneyland

If you’ve been to WDW’s Magic Kingdom- think of that when you think Disneyland, but Disneyland’s smaller. This is “the one with the castle” and has all of the original rides. It is also the only Disney park (or sub-park) that Walt Disney ever stepped foot in. This park is famous for hosting Walt Disney’s apartment, which has a light that has never been turned off since Walt Disney’s death, and has Aurora’s (Sleeping Beauty) Castle instead of Cinderella’s.

Disney’s California Adventure

This park came to be after the cancellation the Westcot, which was supposed to be like Epcot, but larger. This park celebrates California, where the Disney Parks began. If you’ve got a lover of the Cars movie franchise, you’ve got to come here, as the new “Cars Land” area opened in 2012.
