I managed to visit every Disney theme park around the world in one year. (Plus I saw "the big model" of the new Hong Kong park at Walt Disney Imagineering.)
I thought it would be cool to post a picture of each castle from Disneyland, Walt Disney World, Tokyo Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris.
However, since I'm originally from California, I take Disneyland somewhat for granted, so I never took a picture of the Disneyland castle!
Here are the other castles as photographed during my travels.
Walt Disney World Magic Kingdom:
Tokyo Disneyland:
Paris Disneyland:
The Paris castle was designed by my friend since second grade, Tom Morris (not the golfer), and it is spectacular, so it deserves another picture. This next picture looks (to me) like a picture of a model but this is the real castle.
Here's a picture of the top spire of the Paris castle, which has been broken (tilted) for many years. It was broken in a big windstorm that hit the park in 1999.

Disneyland!
Finally! A picture of the castle at Disneyland. Indeed, I finally dug through my pictures and found one of the Disneyland Castle, from 2004. That castle is pretty hard to photograph because it's pretty small and so it's easy to get a lot of other objects in the picture. I decided to quit fighting it, and got the "Partners" statue in the foreground to solve that problem.

I recently viewed the Disneyland castle in Califonia and thought that the public made it sound alot better than it is. The commercials don't help too much either. They show a picture of the castle at Disneyworld. As I stepped into Disneyland I fully expected to see a huge castle with long, tall towers. Come on people, we have GOT to file this as false advertisement!!!!!!
