Destination Overview

Tokyo Disney Resort is a totally integrated, entertainment destination that expands the 
concept of a theme park to a theme resort.  Tokyo Disney Resort is Japan's first "theme resort" 
and encompasses a number of distinct facilities, each promising a unique brand of themed 
entertainment.  Guests visiting the Resort will enjoy a thrilling environment filled with high 
quality amenities, hospitality and entertainment.  
Before Tokyo Disney Resort, there was Tokyo Disneyland® Park, the first Disney Park to 
be built outside the United States.  Opening in 1983, Tokyo Disneyland brought the dreams and 
magic of Disney family entertainment to Japan. 
Just outside JR Maihama Station is Ikspiari, which opened on July 2000. Featuring nine 
unique themed zones of shopping, dining and entertainment, including some 140 shops and 
restaurants, Ikspiari is also the location of a state-of-the-art cinema complex with 16-screens. 
Disney Ambassador® Hotel, the first Disney Hotel in Japan, is located adjacent to Ikspiari. 
This elegantly designed resort hotel features 1930s American art deco design, and special Disney 
themed amenities.  Here guests will enjoy experiences unique to Disney Hotels such as Disney 
Character Dining, where Disney characters greet them while they dine.   And couples can make 
their dreams come true with Disney’s Fairy Tale Weddings.  
Tokyo DisneySea® Park and the in-park Tokyo DisneySea Hotel MiraCosta® opened 
on September 2001.  Tokyo DisneySea is inspired by the myths and legends of the sea.  
Incorporating its seaside location, Tokyo DisneySea is comprised of seven, themed ports of call.  
And located at the entrance to the Park is the Tokyo DisneySea Hotel MiraCosta, which captures 
the ambience of old-world Italy.  "Mira costa" is Italian for “view of the coast,” and this luxury 
hotel offers accommodations with impressive views of the Park’s major waterway and Tokyo 
Bay. 
The Disney Resort Line monorail system began operations on July 2001.  The system 
connects the various Resort facilities, providing guests with not only a convenient means of 
transportation, but also a fun way of seeing all that is offered around the Resort. 
A number of new facilities open in 2008, further adding to the appeal of the Resort.  
Tokyo Disneyland® Hotel, the third Disney Hotel in Japan, opened in July.  This new hotel 
provides a memorable and dreamlike experience for guests who wish to be immersed in the world 
of Disney during their entire stay at the Resort. 
Cirque du Soleil® Theatre Tokyo, an exclusive theater for the world-famous entertainment 
group, Cirque du Soleil, will also open in October 2008.  Here, guests can experience the 
amazing and fantastical performances given by these “artists of the imagination” that go beyond 
the boundaries of a conventional “circus” group.


In addition to these facilities, the entire Maihama area – spanning 200 hectares with the 
Tokyo Disney Resort Official Hotels located by the bay – provides guests with multiple ways of 
enjoying their stay at this major resort destination. 
Oriental Land Co., Ltd. was established in 1960 to develop large-scale leisure facilities to 
contribute to the nation's culture and welfare.  That original mission was accomplished with the 
opening of Tokyo Disneyland Park.  The success of that Park prompted the desire to present 
bigger dreams and more excitement to as many guests as possible.  With the evolution from 
theme park to the Tokyo Disney Resort, Oriental Land will be able to do all that and more.  
Tokyo Disney Resort will never be complete, as we continually look for ways to enhance 
the Resort.  We will continue to strive to provide as many dreams and wonder to as many guests 
as possible
