Castle Painting/Decoration Removal Schedule

[Tanis]

The Castle at Tokyo Disneyland is an exact replica of the Castle in the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World.

There are only 2 Cinderella's Castles in the World ----- Magic Kingdom at WDW and Tokyo Disneyland.

The other three parks have Sleeping Beauty's Castle ---- with Dinseyland Paris having the top section spun the correct way and Hong Kong and Disneyland Anahiem, CA having the top section spun 180' to the rear.

Other than at the interesting tidbit about the parks is that Tokyo Disneyland parks Castle decorations are a test bed for Walt Disney World.

I LOVE the tokyo castle, wow!!!!!! i really hope they bring that to "the world."

I just hope the castle is in good shape for our photos. We will be honnymooning in the world starting on Sept. 17th.

On the bright side when there is something outof the norm it really only helps you remember the event better. Maybe haveing a crane in view won't be so bad.

Great I am going to have the dang crane in my pics again. I last went Sept 2002 and the crane was there.

I realize the above is not an offical notice of construction schedule from the parks, but could someone let me know what they mean by the highlighted item above in the schedule? Is it on the exterior, and what kind of work would they be doing to it?

I think it has to do with A Year of a Million Dreams....with the 1 night in the Castle....right??

Yes, it most certainly does. Right now the room is used for storage/costuming/tinkerbell. Disney is going to make it liveable...finally.

What do you think the chance of winning the night in the bedchamber is?

There were 16.1 million people who visited MK last year, though not all of them were resort guests. If you took that amount and divided by 365 days, your chances in a given year would be 1 in 44,109.

The Sleeping Beauty Castle in Paris is actually a VERY different castle from all the other Sleeping Beauty castles. HK and CA are supposed to be exact replicas I've heard.

That is only if they are allowing guests to stay in it every night, which would be surprising to me. I wonder if they are really going to do that quick of turnaround between visitors.

Question

Do the characters on the castle that are gold real gold or are they fake gold?

How is it so hard? They do it thousands of times everyday at the resorts. Guests arrive in the evening, out in the morning, clean it up during the day.
