In Disney's other Magic Kingdoms around the world a part of the park called Tomorrowland gives a futuristic view of the future with rockets, Aliens and gleaming metal. Unfortunately in today's high speed world the dreams of tomorrow rapidly become the reality of today, so here in Disneyland Paris, Disney decided to try a new angle on this area.Disoveryland is dedicated to the visionaries of yesterday and how they may have envisioned the future that we are now all a part of. Many of histories greatest visionaries lived in Europe, so here in Europe Disney pays them a fitting tribute, Recreating their dreams. H.G. Wells and Leonardo da Vinci feature with their ideas of time travel and flight, but the most influential visionary of all the great French author Jules Verne is the main contributor to the area.

Much of Discoveryland's boiler plate and rivet design derives from Disney's film adaptation of Jules Verne's book 20.000 Leagues Under the Sea A Discoveryland attraction based on the film offers guests the chance to experience a walking tour of Captain Nemo's mythical submarine "The Nautilus". After passing through numerous detail rooms guests find themselves under attack from the mythical Giant Squid.

In another Verne book "From The Earth To The Moon" he wrote about mans mission to travel through space on a journey to the moon. One of Disney's premiere attractions "Space Mountain" recreates that story through a huge indoor roller coaster experience. After guests board a rocket vehicle they are loaded in to a giant cannon pointed skywards which launches, Taking them through an unforgettable high speed ride in near darkness to the moon.

Other attractions include a time travel film projected in 360 degrees on 9 screens giving guest a chance to experience a glimpse of life from the stone age to outer space then into the future. At the Cafe Hyperion enjoy a bite to eat before relaxing at the Videopolis stage where Disney theme shows are performed seasonally.

The part of the land situated furthest from the entrance takes a slightly different look at the future, Through the eyes of visionaries of today. Guests have a chance to enter the world of George Lucas aboard "Star Tours". Based on the "Star Wars" movies guests pass through an airport of the future, Here flights don't leave for other countries, but other planets. After guests board their Star Speeder to the moon of "Endor" home of the Ewoks they discover it is the pilots first flight and he still has a little to learn about space flight.... Good Luck

Also in this area of Discoveryland guests get the chance to visit the Imagination Institute. Its the annual "Inventor of the year awards" Professor Wayne Salinsky is here to demonstrate his amazing shrinking machine but as you might guess things don't go quite as planned and the machine ends up shrinking everyone in the audience. Based the popular "Honey I Shrunk the Kids" film and TV show. The 3D film includes performances by Eric Idle and Rick Moranis and uses some unique special effects to take the attraction to another level.

Die Welt der Visionäre und Visionen, der Träume und Erfindungen, dies ist die Welt des Discoverylands im Disneyland Paris.Hier findet man eine Gestaltung, die an die Ideen der großen Visionäre wie Jules Verne ("Reise zum Mittelpunkt der Erde", "Von der Erde zum Mond"), H.G. Wells ("The Time Machine") und Leonardo da Vinci, angelehnt ist. Futuristisch, aber dennoch zeitlos verkörpert dieses Land die Träume, die diese Menschen zu ihrer Zeit über die Zukunft geträumt haben.

Hier wird nicht gezeigt, wie die Zukunft wirklich werden soll, sondern wie sie geträumt werden kann und wurde.

Die Gebäude sind in Metalltönen, vor allem warmen Bronzeton gehalten und alle Gebäude sind mit Lichtern, verschiedenfarbigen Neonröhren und Lasern bestückt, die das Land bei Nacht in eine noch phantastischere Atmosphäre tauchen. Vor allem der Blick auf das Orbitron mit seinen rotierenden Kugeln und dem monumentalen Space Mountain im Hintergrund hilft dabei den Besucher zu verzaubern. Auch die geheimnisvoll im See ankernde Nautilus erweckt bei Nacht einen mystischen Eindruck.

Im hinteren Teil des Discoverlylands befindet sich aber mit dem Star Tours Gebäude auch ein Teil, der nicht darstellt, wie die Welt in den Augen der Menschen des 19.Jahrhunderts einmal aussehen wird, sondern so, wir man sie auch heute in manchem Science Fiction-Film noch antrifft.

Bestimmt wird dieser Teil des Discoverylandes vom X-Wing, der über dem Gelände zu fliegen scheint. Dieser Teil wirkt aber bei weitem nicht so beeindruckend und faszinierend wie der, den Visionären gewidmete Teil und strahlt auch nicht dessen Charme aus.

Die Attraktionen des Discoverylandes richten sich mehr an Jugendliche und Erwachsene als an Kinder.
