Dream Kingdom: Frontierland

Image
  Come into a world that pays tribute to America's history. Here, the people who helped build our country are celebrated, and the land they helped tame is seen here. This area sits on the Rivers of America, which it shares with Harbor Square. Guests walk through the gates of a log fort and enter into the first of three areas. This is an Old West-themed area in the ghost town of Thunder Springs. Here, they find Western Wares on the right and The Silver Horseshoe on the left. Between them is a small geyser that sprays guests on hot days. Further down the left side is the Thunder Springs Merchandise Building and El Fuego Ranch, a shop and a restaurant, as well as the Frontierland Shootin' Gallery .

Here, guests see a park with a flagpole in the center. On the left, they get help at City Hall, pick up merchandise at the Chamber of Commerce, or sign up for Defenders of the Dream Kingdom at the Firehouse, which is like the Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom in Disney World. On the opposite side is the theater, where guests ...

Walter Elias Disneyverse: An Introduction

Image
  " To all who come to this happy place, welcome....." These very words, spoken by Walt Disney during the opening of the Disneyland Resort in 1955, were the words that started a new age of theme parks. His vision was to create a place where families could make memories together and have fun, and this legacy has been continued in parks around the world. This resort, located in Southern Texas near San Antonio, continues that legacy. With 3 parks, a water park, and a shopping district, this is the place to be. These are the parks located in this resort: Dream Kingdom: A Magic Kingdom-style park Discovery Kingdom: A semi-educational park that is like a fusion of Disney's Animal Kingdom and Epcot Nautical Kingdom: A park similar to Tokyo Disneysea. These places and what they include will be gone over in later posts. This is my second attempt at designing a third American resort.
