The seven theme parks
DisneySea was originally meant to be built in Long Beach, Los Angeles, but the plans were actually realized in the Tokyo area. DisneySea is divided into 7 smaller theme parks. Going off the arcade from the entrance, there is Mediterranean Harbor which expands along a canal, American Waterfront which has the theme of an American port town of the early 20th century, the near-future urban port of Port Discovery, Lost River Delta where you can get a feel of the Caribbean Sea of the 1930’s, the Arabian Coast which was created by the Genie from the movie “Aladdin”, the Mermaid Lagoon where Ariel and the rest of the mermaids from “The Little Mermaid” reside, and Mysterious Island which has the volcanic Mt. Prometheus, the symbol of Tokyo DisneySea.
The Center of the Earth
A giant passenger ship docking at the port and streets of New York City, an erupting volcano and the ocean spreading out in front of it based on the movie “Journey to the Center of the Earth”, streets based on the harbors of America and Italy, and other designs with their own themes that feel as if you’ve taken a time trip to those nations, where you can enjoy yourselves simply by strolling through them … that is a feature of Tokyo DisneySea which has been popular with children and adults alike.
Popular characters
Naturally, there are characters that can be found at Tokyo DisneySea such as Ariel and the Genie, along with the most famous ones such as Mickey and Minnie. However, the most popular character is Duffy, who was created as a teddy bear by Minnie for Mickey. There is also Sherry Mae, Duffy’s girlfriend, and Gelatoni the cat, who are also popular. There are many visitors who come to DisneySea just to buy their goods. They had also been sold at Disney resorts in America, but they didn’t become as popular as they have in Japan. Realizing their explosive popularity in Japan, the United States and Hong Kong have also started selling them again. Inside Tokyo DisneySea, young women and children are carrying the Duffy teddy bears all over the park, putting them in costumes, and taking photos of them together.
A romantic evening
Unlike at Tokyo Disneyland, wine and beer are sold at Tokyo DisneySea, and a romantic atmosphere can be enjoyed. In particular, the night shows are a hit with couples and families. Please enjoy these along with Tokyo Disneyland. Also, Tokyo Disney Resorts are famous for the quality of their hospitality, which is top in Japan. Even if you don’t understand Japanese, the staff can handle any problems that may arise, and you can enjoy this wonderland in perfect security.
