Thesis

Disneyland has come a long way since it opened its doors in 1955 and has faced a lot of changes in the rides, in expanding the original park

in Anaheim and even in creating new parks around the world. With the help of the advancement in technology going hand in hand with

changing American culture, the Disney empire is becoming a truly “magical” factor in the lives of people.
