Walt Disney Research Paper

Where dreams come true

Disney is a company that everybody knows about, we grew up watching their channel, watching their series and movies, looking up to become a princess or a prince and dreamt at least once about going to one of the theme parks.

Walt Disney

You can’t talk about Disney without mentioning its Walt Disney.

As we all know, Walt Disney is the creator of the brand Disney. He was born on December 5th, 1901 in Chicago, Illinois.

Since he was little, he loved drawing and animation. His mom and his brother encouraged him to follow his dreams and continue with his drawings.

In 1929, Disney produced Steamboat Willie, a silent film which included the timeless Mickey Mouse. Mickey would soon become the most popular animated character

His worldwide popularity was based upon the ideals which his name represents: imagination, optimism, creation, and self-made success in the American tradition. (Just Disney )

Disneyland

Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California, opened on July 17, 1955. It is the only theme park designed and built under the supervision of Walt Disney.

It’s a huge park where you feel magic and excitement, you can see all your favorite characters walking down the streets or at shows and parades, you can also enjoy yourself with the attractions according to the movies. You can buy almost everything you can imagine related to the characters, especially of the most emblematic character: Mickey Mouse.

The park is divided in many sections known as “lands”, they have different themes which some of them are Adventureland, Fantasyland and Tomorrowland.

As every Disney park, Disneyland is a place for people of all ages, everybody enjoys going and spending one or more days there. You can take pictures with your favorites characters, eat special dishes, ride their many attractions, watch the shows and parades, buy souvenirs and have a lot of fun.

Disney

Disney World is nearly the size of San Francisco, it includes four theme parks: Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and two water parks: Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach. There are 27 hotels of every category.

Disneyland and Walt Disney World are very similar, the most recognizable differences are the size and the castles. The icon of Walt Disney World is Cinderella Castle and Disneyland has the Sleeping Beauty Castle.

My personal favorite theme park of this resort is Epcot where you can see the most representative aspects of many countries in the world, you can eat their typical dishes and get to know about their countries with sculptures, buildings, souvenirs and museums. Every worker of each section is dressed according to the country. Tokyo
