Disneyland is the original theme park that Walt Disney himself designed and built. He came up with the idea after visiting various amusement parks with his children. Disney bought 160 acres near Anaheim Ca in the early 50s and construction soon began. The park opened July 17, 1955. Disneyland Resort offers two parks: Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventureland, 3 hotels and Downtown Disney District area.
