American theme park fans have been watching Disneyland Paris with interest for a while: the bumpy early ‘90s rollout, the financial drama, the ooooh we-want-one Ratatouille ride. Now it’s time to get off the sidelines and actually go. Leaving Paris proper to visit a Mickey Mouse house may sound like heresy, but let’s face it, museum fatigue will set in by day two. If you’re in the area during the coming year and have at least nine hours free to see a stunning turreted Barbie Dream House of a castle, Disneyland Paris is worth a day out of your Euro trip.
Fans will appreciate its imperfections and quirks as much as its triumphs. Here, Tomorrowland is subbed out for a Jules Verne-inspired Discoveryland that looks hella cool at sundown. Its Space Mountain, though one of the roughest rides you’ll experience, has actual inversions. If you think the Eiffel Tower glimmering at night is a spectacle, hoo boy, brace for the nightly show at Sleeping Beauty Castle, the most awe-inspiring royal structure Disney has ever built. Your favorite childhood films are projected against water that blasts out from the moat and projection-mapped onto the castle walls. Even its trees are delightfully square-shaped, like a greatest hits of fantasy entertainment.
Everything is unexpectedly more scenic here. Big Thunder Mountain lives on its own sort of island, while Adventureland is packed with waterfalls and massive pirate ships. The castle’s interior hosts two walk-through attractions as well as a noteworthy treacherous beast. Even some baby rides are kickass, like the adorable Casey Jr. -- le Petit Train du Cirque that’s more of a coaster than a railroad -- and, believe it or not, It’s a Small World. Yes, yes, I am telling you to spend your precious vacation hours away from Paris on a notorious earworm of a Disney ride, but it's glimmering, gorgeous, and cannot be missed. No wonder this American import has become Europe’s most-visited tourist destination, with nearly as many annual visitors than the Louvre and the Eiffel Tower combined.
