Disneyland Park at Disneyland Paris is the most visited theme park in Europe. Le Château de la Belle au Bois Dormant is the most elaborately designed castle in the Disney chain, and the park's Discoveryland, Phantom Manor and Big Thunder Mountain are all distinct from their US counterparts.

A long-running refurbishment programme has restored much of the original detail; wait-time management and food pricing remain common criticisms.

BEST TIME TO VISIT · May to June, and December
