But it all started in 1940, after Mickey Mouse, as well as full-length cartoon characters (such as "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs," "Bambi," "Dumbo") became popular, and the word has become synonymous with Disney.

The success was so great that the fans of the cartoons began to ask to arrange a tour of the Walt Disney Studios in Burbank, California
Walt Disney knew that this tour is unlikely to impress the visitors, therefore began to think about the creation of the park, which would be interesting for both children and adults.
When his daughters Diane and Sharon were small, Walt Disney took them every Sunday in Griffith Park in Los Angeles. Children ride the rides, while adults usually bored, sitting on benches.
Disney wanted to create a park where there would not be bored either children or adults. At first he thought to create a park in an area of 8 acres and call him Mickey Mouse Park. But when he started to more detailed planning, it is understood that the park will require more space.

His plans had to be postponed because of the war, only the construction of the park began in 1954. Park was chosen for a place in the area of 160 acres in Anaheim, California.
