# Disneyland Paris: Wonderland so close to home
## Disneyland Paris has an array of enchanting new attractions and is very
easy to reach, explains Sylvia Derrick. Plus don't miss the Magical Moments
Festival this summer.

At Disneyland Paris, you can enjoy all the charms of Disney without travelling
a long distance, so it's ideal for a short break.
3:17PM BST 13 May 2011
Disneyland Paris is a place where imaginations can run wild and family
memories are made that will last for a lifetime - so why not make this the
year to see your wishes come true with Mickey Mouse and his friends?
The magic begins from the moment you tell your loved ones they're bound for
Disneyland Paris. Then, when you step through the gates, you'll discover
myriad attractions, shows and parades across two amazing parks - Disneyland
Park and Walt Disney Studios Park.
The resort is also home to seven Disney hotels and Disney Village, a vast
entertainment district with themed restaurants, shops and a cinema complex, a
lake and world-class 27-hole golf course.
This summer, a trip to Disneyland Paris promises to be even more special. The
Magical Moments Festival features the best-loved stories from Disney films and
an all-star cast. You'll come up close to all your favourite Disney
characters, who will take you with them on their adventures.
For some seriously madcap mayhem, you can immerse yourselves in the Wonderful
World of Alice and the Mad Hatter - but you'll have to work out whether to
side with him or the more level-headed Queen.

Getting to Disneyland Paris from the UK could scarcely be easier. Direct

Kent.
