Park Layout

Shanghai Disneyland Park will be a new variation of traditional "Disneyland" style theme parks found all over the world. As a replacement for a "hub", the center of the park will instead feature an 11-acre collection of gardens called the Gardens of Imagination.[3] Other themed areas will include the Enchanted Storybook Castle, the largest and tallest Disney castle featuring an underground boat ride,[4] and Treasure Cove, home of the Pirates of the Caribbean: Battle of the Sunken Treasure ride.[5] There are rumors of a ride and a themed area to the movie Frozen.
