DisneySea Park opened in Japan in 2001. This is a Disney topical park on the water. All the amusement rides, shows and entertainment are in one way or another connected with the water element.
is located in the suburbs. There is a huge area with several parks and hotel.
The Park is closer than I imagined.
The way was fairly simple, but with some changes. First, we had to get to Keiyo Line. We made a change on Hatchobori Station. Then we had to go to Maihama Station - a place where
is located. We spent about 6 USD.
A ticket to the park for a day for an adult costs about 56 USD. The park has two main attractions: AquaSphere, the fountain in the form of a globe at the entrance, and the volcano in the middle of the park. Although, the park itself is one big attraction. The volcano has the same height as the Cinderella Castle in Disneyland. Some hotels in
are built-in right into the park! This complex is called MiraCosta. DisneySea has only 7 zones: Mediterranean Harbor, American Waterfront, Lost River Delta, Port Discovery, Mermaid Lagoon, Arabian Coast и Mysterious Island.
The entrance to the park is the Mediterranean harbor, around which six ports are located: American coast, the lost river delta, Discovery Port, mermaid lagoon, Arabian Coast, and Mysterious Island. We walked a little, looked around, and took some pictures. Suddenly, we heard the music, and the boat sailed with all various Mickey Mice sailed. They began to sing, dance and have fun in every way! American Waterfront is a zone of America of the beginning of the century. There’s a passenger ship SS Columbia, where some restaurants are situated. There’s also a railroad. If you go one way, then you come to the entrance (or exit), and if you go in the other direction, then you come to the adventure zone, where Indiana Jones is. The American zone has the Broadway Theater, Turtle Talk ride and the Tower of Terror. The castle is impressive. Unfortunately, the queue was quite big, and we had little time. Here’re cars of the electric railway. We came back to the Mediterranean Harbor. Mediterranean was in the form of Venice with its canals and gondolas. Here’s a view of the bay and the hotel Mira Costa. Port Discovery is the zone of the future. It’s similar to Disneyland’s Tomorrowland. Although there are similarities with Discoveryland. There were the Weather Control Center and two attractions: Aquatopia and Stormrider. Besides, there’s a railway, which goes to the beginning of the park. This is Aquatopia. Fastpass-ticket can be bought here. It may save 70 minutes of time. But there is a “single-rider”! You shall say a magic word and pass the queue on some rides ;) This is the bridge leading to Delta Lost River, the adventure zone. There’s Indiana Jones Adventure in Aztec pyramid: the Temple of the Crystal Skull. There's Raging Spirits a little further of the mountain with a dead loop. There’s a show Mystic Rhythms, which is held several times a day in the hangar. We got there quite accidentally. The show was just excellent! All these jungles had parted, and the actors played a musical performance on the stage. The costumes and special effects were very impressive, we seemed to be in some other world. Everything was related to the water. We really enjoyed it. Here’s Mysterious Island. This is inside the volcano. It is called Mount Prometheus. We came out of the tunnel on the opposite side, we went around a circle and passed through another tunnel towards the exit. We came to the Mediterranean bay on the other side. We left the territory of the park. Here’s the exit through the hotel archway. We had little time, but then ran Mickey Mouse came, making the crowd have fun! In Japan, all children and many adults, adore Mickey Mouse! People often come and touch the characters, looking at them with eyes full of admiration. The shops are full of different products with the symbol of Walt Disney. And then we went to the show ZED Cirque du Soleil!
