Like with all the Disneyland theme parks, Disneyland in Hong Kong also sits in a huge piece of land. In total, it covers 55 acres of land and features four amazing areas – the Main Street, U.S.A., the Fantasyland, the Adventureland, and the Tomorrowland. The theme park is set to offer attractions that will bring you back to yesterday, forward to the future, and always within fantasy. The total land area is set to expand in the coming years, with the construction of three more themed areas nearly complete.
The Main Street, U.S.A. is inspired by an early 20th Century Midwest town. The Fantasyland, as the name implies, will bring you to where Disney characters come to life. The Adventureland, meanwhile, features several jungle-themed adventures. The Tomorrowland is a futuristic area where you can have an optimistic vision of tomorrow.
When they are finally completed, the three themed areas will certainly add up to the usual Disneyland allure. There’s Toy Story Land, which is inspired by one of Disney’s most popular film series – Toy Story. Then there’s Grizzly Gulch, which is reminiscent of a mining town set in a surrounding of mountains and woods. Lastly, there’s Mystic Point, which is proposed to be an uncharted forest where supernaturals exist.
