Main Street at Disneyland Paris, part II !!!

Posted in Europe, France, Paris

And indeed my boys convince me to be back. After so many trips to Walt Disney and Disneyland Paris, we were back. It was a special trip as the boys wanted to celebrate the birthday of my twin sons, We were back sadly this time just my 3 boys , myself and our dog Rex, we have lost 3, This time it seems we had more time and saw more attractions, it was magical indeed ! As their schedule goes we went finally into the parks ! Therefore, let me tell you about Main Street at Disneyland Paris, part II !!! Hope you enjoy it as we !!!

As soon as you enter, take the avenue teeming with adorable shops, restaurants and other secrets: a city with the pure charm of American life in the 1900s, inspired by Walt Disney’s childhood! At the end, Sleeping Beauty Castle stretches its blue turrets to the sky. Find one of the doors official or hidden of these two magnificent covered galleries with a wrought iron structure, lit by gas lanterns. Admire collections of works of art, period photographs, miniatures and pretty display cases, all set to jazzy music in the background. Travel up the avenue aboard a 19C horse-drawn tram, behind the wheel of an authentic Mercer, a police car, and even a limousine. From Town Square to Central Plaza, many Disney characters await you to strike a pose: look for them near the windows overflowing with magic, on the side of the covered passages. Meet at the Stroller and Wheelchair Rental Point located at Town Square Terrace, just after the entrance to the Disneyland Park, where you can rent a stroller or wheelchair for the day.

History buffs will visit the Liberty Arcade, which traces the major stages of the design and construction of the Statue of Liberty. They can also go to the Discovery Arcade, which highlights, through models, some of the most beautiful inventions of the 20C. The first enchanted kingdom discovered by the visitor who enters Disneyland Paris is Main Street USA , and it immerses you in an idealized America of the interwar period. This street steeped in history, which serves as the backdrop for the grand parade every day, has a particular charm. What surprises the visitor discovering Main Street USA is certainly the keen eye for detail. This typical boulevard of a small North American town from the 1920s in full expansion has street lamps with gas burners, names in the windows… The street exudes the joy of living and offers a nostalgic dive into a world that seems to us both distant and original, while speaking to our imagination. Covered arcades allow you to protect yourself from bad weather and stroll in front of the windows without getting wet .

The Main Street area does not have many attractions, its primary purpose is to offer a first glmpse of the magic of Disney. The horse-frawn streetcars, trams pulled by horses, allow you to travel the streets at a different pace. The sound of hooves on the cobblestones contributes to the inimitable atmosphere of Main Street U.S.A. It should be noted that Main Street U.S.A. can be made up of 3 large parts: Town Square (the entrance to the park), Main street (the main street itself ) and Central Plaza (the park square at the foot of the castle). At the entrance, to your left, you can discover the City/Town Hall, above which the traditional American flag flies. For movie lovers, head to Main Street Cinema to see the famous Steamboat Willie. In fact, there are 6 Disney short films shown in this cinema per day. And to your right the public transport hub for wheelchairs and etc

Different shops will allow you to buy souvenirs from your magical stay at Disneyland Paris. I have given some and then my favorites in my post on shopping, There is plenty of places to eat here, and our favorite are told in my post on eating at Disneyland Paris

I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world. My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting. Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers All rights reserved.
