Magic Approaches

Disneyland Paris is the most beautiful Magic Kingdom park in the world, so it seems fitting that its approach seems to build up suspense and drama by presenting multiple iconic moments before guests even pass through the front gates!  From the central plaza, there's a statue and sculpture of Sorcerer Mickey's hand holding up a wand, then a waterfront look across to a Mickey Mouse floral display, then the grand facade of the Disneyland Paris Hotel, and the actual turnstiles.

Of the trio before the entry, the first statue seems to be the least frequently photographed.  It's a nice sculpture and surrounded by pretty flowers, but people seem to favor the Victorian backdrop of the hotel or the Mickey florals more.  It's okay, though.  The scene in sequence is still quite lovely, and the Sorcerer's Apprentice art piece seems to harken to the pixie dust that awaits inside the park!

One shining moment... of Disney magic coming up!
