Adjacent to Disneyland, this smaller theme park captures the best the state has to offer, all in one location. In addition to several carnival-like rides, visitors can tour a 1940s art-deco Hollywood back lot; visit a Northern California winery in a Spanish mission; take a virtual aerial tour of California (Soarin' Over California); watch the 3-D movie
It's Tough to Be a Bug; and experience the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror ride. Toy Story Mania! invites you to don your 3-D glasses and explore the world of Woody and Buzz Lightyear. Entertainment includes Block Party Bash and Turtle Talk with Crush.
Restaurants abound, including some that are reminiscent of the San Francisco Bay Area. Park hours can vary week to week (with longer hours in the summer), so call ahead.
