Differences between Disney's?

Question

so whats the differences between Disneyland and Disneyworld. i thought they were the same thing.

Anyone please explain TY

Answer 1

disneyland is two parts, three hotels and a shopping/entertainment area (Downtown Disney) and everything is in one area. you can walk from one park to another to the hotels, etc.  Its very convinient. there are a lot of rides in very little space. all the land around disney is filled with restaurants and hotels. which makes it cool because again, you can get a hotel near by and walk to the parks. or eat outside the park.

Disney World is four theme parks, two water parks, over a dozen disney owned hotels, two miniature golf courses and a shopping/entertainment area (again, Downtown Disney).

you really can't walk between parks. you need to drive or use teh disney transportation system. the parks are much larger and things dont seem as cramped. there are a couople of parks that are really different from what Disneyland has to offer. Epcot has the world shocase that give you a glimpse of different countries and their culture through shows, food and shopping. Animal Kingdom is like a theme park and zoo combined.  so if you like animals its a must do.

although some parks have the same rides, and for the most part, its almost identical but some rides are different and others are only at one of the two parks. Matterhorn, only at disneyland. Expedition Everest, only at Animal Kingdom in florida.

most people will like whatever their first park is. so if they grew up going to disneyland and then go to disney world, they feel that is too big and not enough stuff to do. people that grew up going to disney world feel that disneland is small and seems crowded. they don't like that right next to the park is a major street and you can see the cars from certain parts of the park.

Either way both parks are fun.
