Sleeping Beauty Castle … Disneyland Resort Paris

The jewel of Disneyland Park in Paris, is the Sleeping Beauty Castle.
Around the castle, according with their timetable, you can find the princesses awaiting to sign your autograph books, to greet you and let you take photos with them.

 

The princesses rotate every 15 minutes, more or less. So, don’t be too dissapponted if (like me and my daughter) you are waiting in the large queue to see Snow White, and almost as your turn is comming, she goes and Cinderella come to continue with the session. We already had Cinderella’s autograph and photo taken with us, so we waisted our time, and my poor 3 and a half year old daughter was very dissaponted. (In my opinion, very bad organization).

Talking about the castle, it must be said the magic surround it, it’s absolutely beautiful. Underneath the castle, there is the Dragon’s Cave. A real scary articulated dragon awaits down there to scare the little ones of the family, is a must visit.

 

 

Going through Sleeping Beauty Castle into Fantasyland

You can go to the top of the castle and enjoy the magnificent view from up there , honestly I didn’t go in my visit, it was cold and rainy so I didn’t particulary fancy getting more wet. Inside the castle is beautiful, up the lovely wooden staircase you will find pictures representing the story of Sleeping Beauty, and sleeping coats of armour snoring away. Downstair there is a fantastic shop where to buy all kinds of gifts and souvenirs from the Disneyland Park.

The pink stone castle looks like a real medieval building. The attention to detail in every corner of the park makes you transport yourself to an imaginary land of princes, princesses and dragons.

Through the Sleeping Beauty Castle you will walk right into FantasyLand.

Next to the Slepping Beauty Castle there is the Aladdin & Jazmin exotic Palace. Depending on where you are you will be listening to different music that provides the right atmosphere for each part. The music around FantasyLand is all very romantic and soft, magic almost.

In Fantasyland, there are many different places you would like to see, visit Peter Pan, Pinocchio and Gepetto, Alice of Wonderland, Dumbo, Is a small world after all and many more…
