What happened to Disney at 1955?

On July 1955, when the world's first Disneyland opened its doors to welcome guests, it was called "the happiest place on earth". On the opening day of Disneyland, life photographers Allan Grant and Loomis Dean took the following amazing color photos, which restored the grand occasion of the day.

Disneyland is not only a fairy tale kingdom, but also indicates the possibility that ordinary people's dreams will come true soon. On June 20 1616, Shanghai Disneyland officially opened. This marks that China has become the only country outside the United States with two Disney theme parks.

From Orlando, USA to Paris, from Tokyo to China, Hongkong and Shanghai, the global layout of Disney theme parks is unique.

From 65438 to 0964, Disney began to secretly buy land in Orlando to prevent real estate developers from raising prices. At that time, Orlando was just a remote town and a "terrible swamp", so the transaction price per acre was around $200. But Walter Disney, the founder of Disney, has made it clear that the planned highway in Florida will pass through Orlando. For a long time, Orlando residents didn't know that Disney would be their neighbor.

When the news of Disney's crazy land purchase in Orlando was finally revealed by the media, the local land price rose rapidly. At this time, Disney has bought 89% of the land in the park planning, which is about twice the area of Manhattan.
