I started a similar thread earlier, but this is a more formal redo. This is basically my idea for a new Disneyland. We can call it the Magic Kingdom of my imagination. Enjoy!
DISNEYLAND
Like all magic kingdoms of the world, my Disneyland would be a place where dreams come true and the imagination can roam free. Unlike its counterparts, however, this newly imagined theme park will broaden the scope of any other endeavor. This step forward towards bigger and better things is in keeping with the Disney spirit, but this park will also have eye always turned to the past. Horse-drawn trolleys and barbershop quartets can still be found on Main Street, pirates will still plunder and pillage, and a majestic Disney castle will still tower above all the land. Here, a “Disney regular” will find a new challenge in navigating and conquering this expansive park while still enjoying the things that have drawn them there in the first place. New guests will be introduced to a whole new world of excitement.
OVERVIEW
The park will take the shape of the traditional Disneyland format, however one big change will be added. Though Main Street, U.S.A. will serve as the main entrance, each of the four lands (Adventureland, Frontierland, Fantasyland and Tomorrowland) will have a gate all to their own with each of them also being split up into sub-lands (i.e. one of Fantasyland’s sub-lands will be Wonderland). Circling the park will be a monorail system that makes stops at five “Mega-Resorts” with themes similar to the five fantasy worlds in the park (those will be revealed later).

As is the case with many a Main Street, not much will have changed here. For many Disneyland fans, this will be home base and not too many alterations will be made. To accommodate more guests, Town Square will be a larger area (similar to a city park), but Main Street still leads one straight to the castle, Beast’s Castle in this case, and the shops we all love will still line the bustling streets.
Adventureland
If any land lives up to its name it is Adventureland. Only here can one journey to the city of Agrabah, savor the sights and sounds of the South Seas, and venture into a jungle that only once existed in every child’s imagination. Pirates have also taken up permanent residence here including favorites like Captain Hook and Jack Sparrow.
Frontierland
The Rivers of America is still the center of this land (the largest in the park). Surrounding it will be many new lands to explore including Critter Country, Dry Gulch, Blue Bayou, Liberty Square, Jamestown and directly in the center of the river lies Tom Sawyer Island and Grizzly Peak.
Fantasyland
Beast’s Castle serves as the gateway to this most magical realm. Surrounding it will be gardens and courtyards where Disney characters mingle and mix. Venture past the castle walls and one finds themselves immersed into their favorite Disney classics. Sub-lands include villages themed to Beauty and the Beast, Cinderella and Pinocchio. The three good fairies from Sleeping Beauty also have their cottage here while Prince Eric’s Castle and The Hundred Acre Wood can be found at the back entrance to this land. Dumbo’s Circus still can be found and one can also take a Jolly Holiday with Mary Poppins, explore the vast diamond mine of the Seven Dwarfs, visit Cruella De Vil’s scary manor house and even take a journey to Wonderland.
Tomorrowland
Visions of the future past and present await here. The City of Tomorrow is a bustling metropolis welcoming guests into the land. Space Mountain serves as the centerpiece of this land and just beyond its spires lies an explorer’s dream… Mysterious Island.
A more detailed description of each land will follow featuring attraction, entertainment and shopping details… hope you guys post. I’ll read any suggestion or criticism. And I’ll answer any question.
