Disneyland Paris - Discoveryland

Instead of Tomorrowland, Disneyland Paris has the more timeless Discoveryland, which is heavily influenced by Jules Verne (among other explorers and visionaries). Someone in WDI must really like Verne, because not only does he have this land, but also Mysterious Island in Tokyo DisneySea (perhaps the greatest land in any Disney theme park) and he was previously a star of The Timekeeper, a fan-favorite attraction in Walt Disney World, Disneyland Paris, and Tokyo Disneyland.

 

I can't think of any individual external to the Disney company who has received this much attention in the parks. Mark Twain? Lincoln? I would say Verne's influence trumps them both.

 

There are hundreds more photos of Disneyland Paris in our Disneyland Paris Trip Report--check it out!
