Information on the Disneyland Adventure Park in California
Though the Disney Corp. has opened many theme parks throughout the world, the original Disneyland in California still attracts many travelers. They make the pilgrimage because the park was personally developed and opened by Walt Disney in 1955. He called it "The Place Where Dreams Come True" and hoped it would continue to grow. Information is accurate as of July 2009.
