Attraction Overview
Visitors to Sleeping Beauty Castle at Disneyland Paris find themselves at the heart of what guests in some other Disney parks can only dream of – a real castle to explore! This Sleeping Beauty Castle still offers the most direct route between Main Street U.S.A. and Fantasyland,but this castle is more open and allows visitors to do much more than walk through. Families can pick their own route through winding castle staircases revealing intricate carvings and ornate stained glass windows that celebrate the history of the castle’s famous inhabitants. From the rooftop spires, explorers will discover stunning views of the magical lands on either side of the castle. Step out of the gates on the Main St. U.S.A. side and step to the right and you will find yourself in the catacombs below the castle – be careful not to wake the dragon that slumbers there!
