We know, we know – comparing Disneyland and Walt Disney World is like comparing apples and oranges. But when we can find concrete, objective ways to analyze Disney’s two U.S. resorts in new ways, we jump at the chance! For example, our Ride Count Countdown already ranked Disney’s parks by the number of actual rides they offer (with some surprising results) and we even tackled the impossible task by looking at the number of “E-Ticket” headliners each park offers.
And then, of course, there’s the big one: our list of 16 Disneyland Exclusives that Should Make Disney World Fans Jealous. In that popular feature, we intentionally avoided sweeping generalizations or emotional appeals (“Walt stepped here!” “It’s cozy!”) and instead offered a concrete look at enviable exclusive lands, attractions, and experiences at the California resort. But the story doesn’t end there!
Today, we’ll analyze the 16 things that even Disneyland loyalists will admit make Disney World worth a visit; the concrete attractions and experiences that Disneyland fans should be jealous of that Disney World offers that their Californian parks don’t… or can’t.
1. Carousel of Progress
Though Disneyland fans are quick to claim themselves as Walt’s “original magic kingdom,” the classic park does not host the ride Walt called his personal favorite! Designed for General Electric’s Progressland pavilion at the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair, Walt’s promise of “A Great, Big, Beautiful Tomorrow” was relocated to Disneyland in 1967 as part of the Lost Legend: Walt’s Tomorrowland. But it didn’t stay for long.
Why? There’s a clear difference between audiences at Disney’s two stateside resorts. Disneyland’s typical audience tends to be much more regional-and-repeat visitors, whereas Disney World caters to more national, international, and once-in-a-lifetime guests. Even back in the 1970s, General Electric recognized that too. Once Magic Kingdom opened, they requested that the ride be relocated to the new park, where the sponsor’s message would reach perpetually fresh crowds rather than the dwindling repeat audiences in California. Obviously, it worked! The subject of its own in-depth Imagineering feature, the Modern Marvel: Carousel of Progress continues to play to this day, just as Walt hoped.
The Carousel Theater continues to exist in California. However, it no longer turns. Instead, it houses the tired and half-empty Star Wars Launch Bay exhibition. Disneyland fans should be very jealous that they lost the ultra-classic, Walt-adored show to the park’s younger sister. But if it returned in a nod to nostalgia, chances are that the local crowd would once again let its ridership dwindle – something Florida’s international guests haven’t let happen in 45 years!
2. World Showcase
Born of EPCOT Center’s “permanent World’s Fair” spirit, World Showcase is a project the likes of which we’re unlikely to ever see again. Just think: Disney set out to authentically, lovingly create cultural and culinary experiences without a character (and very limited rides) in sight. EPCOT Center was more than just Disney World’s “adult” park; it was a vast divergence from what people thought Disney World was about!
Naturally, today’s World Showcase has more Disney characters than many fans would like (with seemingly more pavilions refocused on animated classics every year) but the fact remains that the park’s cultural “realm” offers something Disneyland’s doesn’t: an inherently “adult” experience. And no, we don’t just mean alcohol. It’s also that World Showcase countries are filled with the art, entertainment, music, history, and even people of the countries they represent, creating a living experience no museum can offer.
A “reimagined” World Showcase would’ve actually come to Disneyland as part of the never-built Possibilityland: WESTCOT Center. Though that ultra-expensive second gate didn’t come to be, its replacement – Disney’s California Adventure – initially leaned into the World Showcase model itself, focusing on drinking, dining, and shopping over attractions… a formula that didn’t exactly resonate without the EPCOT Center spirit to back it up. Still, the idea of such a vast, cultural, authentic experience should make Disneyland fans jealous.
3. Disney Transportation
Throughout Disneyland’s first decades, Walt used the park as a proving ground for his growing interest in urban planning and optimization. Attractions like Disneyland’s Skyway (1956), Monorail (1959), and Peoplemover (1967) were all installed as attractions in Tomorrowland, meant to showcase what these future technologies could provide. But at Disney World, they would be elevated beyond mere attractions or prototypes to become actual, functional systems.
Now sure, the miniscule Disneyland doesn’t need the kind of transportation infrastructure that the gargantuan Disney World offers. But in a state as “green” as California, it’s astounding that most Disneyland visitors arrive in personal vehicles such that – on busy days – Disneyland’s 16,000 parking garage spaces are completely full. Meanwhile, out-of-towners need to hitch rides on third party shuttle services from LAX, more than a half hour away. Then, guests either walk a retro-actively added path to the central Esplanade between parks, or pile into trams – objectively silly when high-speed Peoplemovers, skyliners, or a re-routed monorail could get the job done more efficiently and effectively. (In fact, such obvious intra-resort infrastructure was planned – but abandoned – during the Westcot era.)
So while Disneyland guests have no need to be jealous of Disney World’s massive, sprawling complex and the army of gas-guzzling buses that connect it, the fact that authentic solutions like the Monorail and Skyliner are functionally used instead of simply being rides is neat to see. And because of their starring roles, they’ve even been elevated to be part of the resort’s culture and allure!
4. Test Track
The Lost Legend: TEST TRACK got off to a rocky start when it opened in 1996… er… ‘97. No, ‘98. Okay, so it was March 1999 before General Motors’ hit thrill ride finally hit the road despite initial goals. Representing a new generation of Epcot experiences, the ride was more brawn than brains, turning guests into “test dummies” to take a new GM car through the paces. A controversial 2012 redesign axed the literal “testing grounds” style of traffic cones and crashed cars in favor of a sleek, modern, digital engineering-based experience where guests design their own custom cars in a glowing laboratory, then see how they stack up in a TRON-esque “SimTrack.”
For better or worse, Test Track was a game-changer. Still “the fastest ride at Disney World,” it created a new thread for Epcot to follow, turning Future World into a loosely connected realm of semi-scientific thrill rides. And though its opening was delayed by several years, it also introduced the high-speed “slot car” ride system that’s been used to great success two more times in Disney Parks.
Speaking of which, Disneyland offers the ride’s technological counterpart, the Modern Marvel: Radiator Springs Racers – a starring ride in its own right, and a fantastic fit for Disney California Adventure. But Test Track – especially in its day-glo, TRON-stylized form – would be a beautiful ride through the engineering design process in Disneyland’s Tomorrowland.
5. Expedition Everest
Sprawling, imposing, and legendary, the Modern Marvel: Expedition Everest is arguably one of the icons of Walt Disney World. The larger-than-life ride is elevated beyond being a mere roller coaster thanks to the decadent world-building that’s layered on top of it. On board, guests venture through the “Forbidden Mountain” en route to Everest, finding themselves caught in the grip of the mythical Yeti. As a result, the ride managed to both introduce the first of the “imagined” creatures promised by the park’s dedication while also venturing deep into the myths and legends of Asia’s Himalayan region.
Disneyland does have an accidental counterpart to Everest: the historic Matterhorn Bobsleds (the first ever modern steel coaster). Though both include snow-capped peaks and run-ins with a mythical mountain guardian, the comparisons end there. Naturally, the sight of the Matterhorn rising above Disneyland is as iconic as any of Disney’s legendary peaks and we wouldn’t change it for the world! But Everest is a sensational, multi-sensory, cinematic, technological adventure that really is one of the best Disney rides on Earth, period, and should top many Disneyland fans’ lists of Disney World exclusives they’d love to experience.
6. MyMagic+
Okay, so we’re deviating just a bit from our promise of featuring only concrete attractions and experiences… But bare with us.
First of all, MyMagic+ is the billion-dollar rollout of a unified technology infrastructure across Walt Disney World that defined the resort’s growth in the 2010s. Built around multiple information systems that (sometimes, clumsily) communicate, the system was meant to simplify a Disney World vacation by centralizing planning (which now occurs months before you step foot on-property) and increase guest spending and satisfaction.
Boots on the ground, the system revolves around the My Disney Experience app and the customizable and collectable MagicBand RFID bracelet, melding your park ticket, room key, FastPass+ reservations, transportation, Dining Plan, and room charging privileges into one wearable. Even with (or perhaps, because of) the MyMagic+ initiative, Disney World remains one of the more complex family vacations to plan, frustrating fans and putting tourists in turmoil. And even when Disney threatened (er, um, promised) that a version of MyMagic+ would come to California, we countered that the system was inherently at odds with the more relaxed, locals-focused resort. (We were right; it never came to Disneyland.)
In fact, at the semi-annual D23 Expo in 2019, Disney announced another new app, Disney Genie, that will essentially take the brunt of pre-planning and coordination off of guests’ shoulders… Seemingly a Disney-made solution to a Disney-made problem!
So why would Disneyland fans be jealous of MyMagic+? Though the laborious pre-planning, pre-scheduling, and pre-booking that defines a Disney World trip can be agonizing, it also makes a trip… dare we say?… magical. There’s something spectacular about engraved MagicBands arriving in the mail; knowing you’ve got a few Fastpass rides booked beforehand; the MagicBand granting park access with a musical tap; your on-ride photos “magically” appearing in your phone as you exit a ride; watching your plans come together as you check My Disney Experience every few days. Would the system work at Disneyland? Nope. But for a Disneyland-regular to visit Disney World, it can be a fun change from the ordinary.
7. New Fantasyland
Both Disneyland and Magic Kingdom started off with similar Fantasylands, offering a “Medieval faire,” tournament tent style of pastel awnings and castle walls – a look Walt was infamously unhappy with. Disneyland’s was the first to get a facelift in 1983, emerging as a storybook European village of quaint architecture to house its five classic dark rides.
Magic Kingdom’s New Fantasyland came much later, only shedding the “faire” aesthetic in 2011 (and even then, only half of the land). However, the re-emerged “Fantasy Forest” expansion (built mostly on the ruins of the Lost Legend: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea) was born of a much different era and the “Wizarding World” model. Cinematic sub-lands themed to The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Snow White, and Dumbo feel evergreen and “real,” but are also spectacularly modern. A similar undertaking in Tokyo is based almost entirely on Beauty and the Beast (but includes a cutting edge trackless dark ride as its centerpiece) while Hong Kong Disneyland is hedging on a New Fantasyland expansion based on Frozen.
Disneyland’s European village version of the land (now nearly 40 years old!) is still timeless and perfectly scaled for the park. In fact, randomly adding a mega-sized Frozen or Beauty and the Beast sub-land would look wildly out-of-sync. But we would love to see the park adapt some of New Fantasyland’s fixtures (perhaps including that trackless Beauty and the Beast dark ride or the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train) in one of the park’s rare expansion pads.
8. Signature Dining Experiences
One of the ways that Disneyland and Disney World have substantially diverged over their lifetimes is in the role of dining in the resorts. While Disneyland has a handful of remarkable table service restaurants (the Blue Bayou, Carnation Cafe, and the Carthay Circle come to mind), most of the park’s offerings are quick service stops.
At Disney World, meanwhile, eating is practically as ingrained in the experience as rides! ADRs are as hot a commodity as FastPass+ reservations, days are often defined around meal breaks, and guest laboriously track and spend meal and snack credits redeemed through Dining Plans. Restaurant reservations open at precisely 6:00 AM Eastern time six months out, meaning if you don’t act fact enough, you’ll find yourself locked out of many full service restaurants whose tables are 100% spoken for months ahead of time.
Take Be Our Guest Restaurant, one of the starring elements of the Wizarding-World-esque New Fantasyland, giving guests the chance to dine inside the Beast’s castle. What’s best about Be Our Guest, though, may be that Disney did something uncharacteristically equitable. While they could’ve commanded big-budget prices for this sought-after experience, the restaurant is open for breakfast ($$), lunch ($), and dinner ($$$), transitioning in the afternoon from a quick service order-at-kiosk experience to a full-on fine-dining restaurant. That gives everyone a chance to dine in splendor… if you snag a reservation at least.
Elsewhere, one of the more clever and unique offerings is the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, where guests sit under the stars in “cars” picturesquely pointed toward a “drive-in theater” screen that cycles through laugh-out-loud trailers for made-up sci-fi spectacles of yesteryear. Old timey “carhops” act as waiters, bringing sci-fi inspired entrees.
Though any number of these fun, personality-filled, distinctly-Disney dining experiences would be welcome at Disneyland, the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater is especially envy-inducing because Disneyland was supposed to have one! Concept art of the idea was part of the package of imagery meant to advertise Cars Land! For one reason or another, the unique dining experience was cut, and the land once set aside for it is soon to be home to Avengers Campus showbuildings. It’s a shame Disney can’t find a way to add the fan-favorite restaurant to Cars Land, which – nearly a decade after opening – could use the “Phase II” growth.
9. Twilight Zone Tower of Terror
When the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror opened at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in 1994, it represented an absolute pinnacle of Disney’s “Ride the Movies” era; a stunningly cinematic journey into a completely original legend born of the Golden Age of Hollywood and the hotel’s star-studded, paranormal abandonment. The misty grounds of the eerie Hollywood Tower Hotel and its lightning scarred exterior have since become the de facto icon of Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and there’s no question that the ride inside is one of the most sensational dark rides and thrill rides ever concieved. And man, did that make Disneyland fans jealous…
Which is why, in the mid-’90s, Disneyland actually intended to re-use the Tower of Terror ride technology in a never-built “mountain” in Frontierland. But after Disney’s California Adventure opened in 2001, it turned out that the Californian-themed park needed a headliner to lure guests in… and the legend of the Hollywood Tower Hotel seemed like a perfect fit. There was a problem, though… Deep in the cost-cutting era that marked Michael Eisner’s departure, the West Coast version of the ride was reengineered to be more efficient and less costly, losing its signature scene and imposing position.
Anaheim’s version of the ride was the hit that the park needed, seemingly perfectly poised to anchor the park up to, during, and after its billion-dollar reimagining to focus on historic Californian settings and stories… but the next phase of the park’s growth prioritizes “characters” over “California.” The Lost Legend: Twilight Zone Tower of Terror became a sci-fi superhero prison, home to irreverent rock ‘n’ roll Guardians of the Galaxy. Rather than trying (and inevitably failing) to imitate the greatness of the Floridian Tower of Terror, the Marvel ride at least feels like something fresh and different. But man, what Disneyland fans wouldn’t give to have had a true clone of the original Twilight Zone Tower of Terror for themselves… in which case, it would probably still be looming over the park’s Hollywoodland to this day!
10. Pandora – The World of Avatar
When Disney announced that they’d acquired the global rights to build attractions based on Fox’s AVATAR film, it was widely seen as a knee-jerk attempt to secure something big in the wake of Universal’s Wizarding World. From the start, fans protested the idea of a permanent land themed to the militaristic dystopian action film in Animal Kingdom, especially on the land Imagineering fans knew could’ve held the Possibilityland: Beastly Kingdom! It didn’t help that in the years since, Avatar disappeared from pop culture to an almost-comedic extent. And in fact, fan resistance to Pandora remained pretty strong… until the day it opened.
Who could’ve imagined that Disney Imagineers would manage to overcome Avatar‘s inherent issues by severing the land from the film entirely and instead opting to bring to life an entirely original place and a brand new mythology focused centuries after the film? Pandora is a lush, glowing, alien moon of spectacular floating mountains, otherworldly plants and animals, and two impressive rides that both serve the park’s big idea well. In other words, if you told grandma that Pandora was an entirely original, self-contained land with no IP film tie-in, she’d probably believe you.
If you’d told us a decade ago that Disneyland would one day be jealous of Pandora, we might’ve called you crazy. Yet it turns out that Disney managed to create an immersive, exotic, impactful, and beautiful place Imagineering fans travel across the world to see, even if it’s in spite of the limitations of Avatar. Don’t get us wrong: Pandora should not be squeezed into Disneyland or Disney California Adventure… But maybe in a third, IP-focused, Islands-of-Adventure-style park in California, a Pandora land wouldn’t be so bad after all…
11. Country Bear Jamboree
Like Carousel of Progress, the Country Bear Jamboree wasn’t initially designed for Disney Parks at all. In fact, in our in-depth Modern Marvels: Country Bear Jamboree feature, we explored the show’s original destination: a never-built Disney ski resort. But when the attraction opened at Magic Kingdom in 1971, it was an instant hit, becoming one of the Florida resort’s first “exclusive” experiences that Disneyland didn’t offer. It just wasn’t exclusive for long.
In fact, the Country Bear Jamboree was the first attraction to be copied from Disney World to Disneyland, opening in California in 1972. Also like the Carousel of Progress, repeat viewings tended to dwindle thanks to Disneyland’s heavily-local crowds, meaning that the Country Bears played to half-empty audiences. In the early 2000s, the “character invasion” overseen by Michael Eisner necessitated that Big Al and the gang make way for a much more merchandise-friendly bear, and The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh opened in the Critter Country spot.
Are the bears gone from Disneyland forever? Maybe not! One of Disney California Adventure’s themed lands is the 1950s-themed Grizzly Peak National Park. Several of the Country Bears can be found in meet-and-greets there, though fans still lobby for a full return of the show… or even the Country Bears’ inclusion along the banks of the Grizzly River Run rapids ride!
12. Epcot Festivals
For decades, Epcot has been Disney’s “festival park.” Though naysayers insist that it’s just Disney’s half-hearted attempt to lure guests into the infamously divisive park, several of its celebrations have become annual favorites. From the Flower and Garden Festival in the summer, the Food and Wine Festival in the fall, and the newer Festival of the Arts in the spring, there’s always something going on at Epcot. And fantastically, each comes with tapas, wine, special presentations, and interactive experiences that make the park feel alive.
More recently, Disneyland has attempted to capture that festival flavor, too, and it seems inherently well suited for that local audience! And indeed, celebrations of local holidays and Hispanic cultural showcases tend to be big hits. But Disney California Adventure’s Food and Wine Festival and the Festival of Holidays as a whole just don’t seem to resonate in the same way. Maybe it’s because both mostly amount to special food and drink offerings (already prevalent in the resort) with sample sizes at fairly unfriendly prices.
But maybe it’s just that, once more, the “spirit” (and frankly, “blank canvas”) of Epcot lends itself to cross-continental celebrations, educational seminars, topiaries, and a focus on food and drinks that Disney California Adventure’s just doesn’t match. We wish that the “festival” culture could embed itself at Disneyland Resort but so far, it just doesn’t seem to land.
13. Disney World Resort Hotels
It’s often been said that Disney World’s primary business isn’t theme parks, at all; at the end of the day, Team Disney Orlando is really in the hotel business. Disney World’s beautifully designed resorts are attractions unto themselves. Whether or not you choose to stay at them, Disney’s Contemporary, Boardwalk, Polynesian Village, Grand Floridian, Wilderness Lodge, Coronado Springs, Art of Animation, Swan and Dolphin, Pop Century… each is a fun place to see, basking in the personality, detail, entertainment, dining, and history of each. In fact, changes, updates, and upgrades at Disney’s resort hotels are as well-covered and ellict just as strong of reactions as changes in the theme parks!
Naturally, fans can and do argue over the merits of staying “on property,” and whether any hotel room is worth the prices Disney can charge. We won’t say whether Disney’s pricing is fair for the product, but we will say that Disney World’s inflated prices at least come with real incentives beyond ethereal promises of “magic” and “Disney guest service.” Disney World Resort Hotel guests get early FastPass+ booking, free rides to and from the airport, the “magic” of the MagicBand (see #6), and access to essential transportation (see #3). Unsurprisingly, it’s all part of Disney’s not-so-sneaky “walled garden” approach, ensuring guests ditch the rental car and remain on Disney property for the entire length of their stay.
One of Michael Eisner’s biggest goals in the ’90s was to export Disney World’s “walled garden” resort culture to California, which is why a massive Hotel District was key in the never-built Possibilityland: WESTCOT Center plans that never came to be. Instead, Disneyland offers only three hotels (two “deluxe” and one “moderate”). Though hints of “resort culture” exist at Disneyland (like the must-see Enchanted Tiki Bar at the Disneyland Hotel, or the Storytellers character breakfast at the Grand Californian Hotel), the inherent scale and history of visiting the resort hotels is (unsurprisingly) just not really a big element of a Disneyland visit.
14. Astro Orbiter & the Peoplemover
A quintessential element of the classic idea of Tomorrowland, both Disneyland and Magic Kingdom once offered swirling aerial rocket rides of similar style, positioned atop mid-century pedestals at each lands’ center. Gantry lifts would carry batches up guests up to the third level platform, literally elevating the otherwise simple “Dumbo”-like experience to loom over the land and the Lost Legend: The Peoplemover beneath.
In the ‘90s, the two Tomorrowlands diverged from their Space Age styles in intentional bids to make them more timeless. Magic Kingdom’s became a pulp, comic-book future by adding technicolor sci-fi fins and spacecrafts, transforming the Rocket Jets into the elaborate and hypnotic Astro Orbiter.
Now a giant astrolabe of silver rings and color saturated planets, the Astro Orbitor is as iconic as ever, drawing guests into the heart of Tomorrowland, with the curving mid-century Peoplemover wrapping throughout the land beneath it.
Disneyland’s Tomorrowland was reborn in the ‘90s, too, but after the financial crisis caused by Disneyland Paris. A cancelled Possibilityland: Tomorrowland 2055 was replaced with the subject of a Declassified Disaster: New Tomorrowland ‘98. Double-dipping on the earthy, European styles developed for Paris, California’s reborn land was all wrong, rebranding the land in dreary brown and gold paint. An ornate, golden Astro Orbitor cloned from Paris was added, but like its French sister, it was relocated from its sky-high platform and dug down into the earth at the land’s entrance, surrounded in brown and red rocks.
The end result is that neither Tomorrowland is what fans hope. But at least Magic Kingdom’s still features the revolving rockets high up on the land’s central pedestal over the effortless and timeless Peoplemover, while Disneyland features neither.
15. Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Each of Walt Disney World’s theme parks is so unique; each a product of a very particular set of circumstances in the industry; each carrying the voice of the designers behind it. Removed from their historical context and fans’ nostalgia, which of Florida’s four parks would be most needed to fill an (imaginary) open plot of land in Anaheim? It has to be Animal Kingdom.
Disney’s “living” theme park has evolved beautifully over the years from a practically-preachy, too-serious zoological park into a spectacular showcase of myths, legends, adventure, and storytelling. Part of that is, as we already discovered, Expedition Everest, but it goes well beyond that. Animal Kingdom is a park of glowing jungles, ancient temples, rhythmic music, delicious food, and that kind of transformational, “magical” aura that Disney fans talk about.
Unlike Magic Kingdom, it’s original; unlike Epcot, it’s timeless; unlike Hollywood Studios, it doesn’t rely on flavor-of-the-week films or Disney characters. It’s also way too large to have any chance of squeezing into Southern California. It’s celebrational, organic, and adventurous… and we haven’t even mentioned the animals yet! While Pandora – The World of Avatar is icing on the cake, the fact is that Animal Kingdom is simply astounding… A one-of-a-kind, ambitious, and spectacular feat of Imagineering, storytelling, and design.
16. TRON Lightcycle Power Run
When Shanghai Disneyland opened in 2016, it radically reinvented what a Disneyland-style park could be. The mainland China park remixed the traditional land layout and purposefully excluded classic E-Tickets in favor of a new generation of headliners. Rather than the white, Space Age conical Space Mountain, its Tomorrowland was reigned over by an undulating glass canopy – the “Upload Circuit” of the Modern Marvel: TRON Lightcycle Power Run.
Even then, rumors suggested that the ride would come to both U.S. resorts, albeit in different forms: first, as a TRON clone in Florida, then as a Captain America moto-coaster in California. So far, half of that has turned out to be correct. A copy of the TRON ride is coming to Magic Kingdom, aligning with a redressing of the land’s aesthetic. But in California? Don’t hold your breath for a Captain America coaster, given that the park’s Avengers Campus land was relegated to a relatively small plot of land in the land-locked California Adventure.
But could the TRON version come to California? Like Test Track, we can imagine TRON being a spectacular answer to the park’s jumbled Tomorrowland identity, perhaps even positioning its “Upload Circuit” canopy over the land’s entry corridor. Given that a major reimagining of Tomorrowland is always rumored to be “just a dream away,” it at least seems possible that Disney will yet again leverage their new futuristic go-to coaster as a possible solution… And one that would give Walt’s original park a very cool new ride.
Jealous yet?
Let’s face it: the so-called “rivalry” between Disneyland and Walt Disney World will never, ever end; for generations, folks new to Imagineering fandom will continue to stoke old, tired arguments in attempts to compare these two very special places.
And while our Ride Count Countdown, our “E-Ticket” Award count, and our list of 16 Disneyland Exclusives that Should Make Disney World Fans Jealous try to cut to the facts, the undeniable truth is that Disneyland and Walt Disney World each have some spectacular features the other lacks. For fans, that’s good news; it’s all the more reason to keep both of Disney’s U.S. resorts on your bucket list… and don’t even get us started on the international parks…
