Of all the favourite things from our childhood, watching Disney Characters on TV is, perhaps, the experience closest to heart for most of us. Watch it now and you'll definitely realise how easy it was to be free, casual, and insouciant when we were younger. Guess that's childhood.
But what if there's a chance for you to relive the bygones with your family and realise your childhood fantasies in the company of your dear ones? If that’s the next thing you want to experience, Disneyland® Paris is where you should travel to next. About 45 minutes from the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris, it’s a completely different and magical land where you can witness 'fire-breathing dragons' roaming out in the open, a much fabled castle with an animated dragon hiding in the dungeons (yes, that true!), Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy and many other Disney Characters.
Read on and we promise you'll know why visiting Disneyland® Paris is worth it.
