Stock with unusual colors of blue & pink. Vignette of 'Mickey Mouse and Globe', has a touch of red. Disneyland Park, initially referred to as Euro Disneyland Park, is a theme park situated within Disneyland Paris in Marne-la-Vallée, France. It commenced operations on April 12, 1992, marking the first of two parks at the resort. The park was designed and built by Walt Disney Imagineering, and its layout closely mirrors that of Disneyland Park in California and Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World in Florida. Spanning an area of 56.656 hectares (140 acres), it ranks as the second-largest Disney park modeled after the original, following Shanghai Disneyland Park. The park is centered around fairy tales and Disney characters, with Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant (Sleeping Beauty Castle) serving as its iconic landmark, inspired by the castle from Disney's 1959 animated film "Sleeping Beauty."
To set it apart from other Disney parks, several modifications were implemented in its concepts and designs. Noteworthy alterations include the rebranding of Tomorrowland to Discoveryland, which embraces a retrofuturistic theme. Additional distinctive features include the reinterpreted Haunted Mansion, now known as Phantom Manor, and a more intense, retro-style iteration of Space Mountain, referred to as Hyperspace Mountain. The park's European setting necessitated specific design adjustments. Designers re-envisioned Sleeping Beauty Castle, taking into account the presence of numerous authentic castles across Europe. To adapt to the Parisian climate, covered walkways, known as "arcades," were incorporated, and Michael Eisner, the then-CEO of The Walt Disney Company, mandated the installation of 35 fireplaces in the park's hotels and restaurants. In 2016, Disneyland Park attracted approximately 8.4 million visitors, establishing it as the most-visited theme park in Europe and the 13th most-visited theme park worldwide.
