When the park opened, this attraction represented the future of auto travel, as interstate highway legislation had yet to be signed.

In 2015, 14 of the 16-member ensemble were reassigned to other musical groups around the park, and new blood was brought aboard to bring new energy for the 60th anniversary.

The 18-minute tour is unique to Disneyland, as it features a few dioramas in addition to the park scenery.

While onboard, guests will see exotic animals in The Mekong River, African Congo, Nile River, and Amazon

King Arthur Carousel still operates after more than 60 years. This particular carousel (and many of the horses) first appeared in Sunnyside Beach Park in 1922.

This classic fair ride gets guests dizzy as they spin and twirl in giant teacups. The ride consists of 18 cups sitting on three separate turntables and spinning on an even larger turntable.

This attraction has six separate movie screens in one room. The screens show a set of classic Disney cartoons like “Steamboat Willie” and “The Dognapper.”
