你喜歡參觀哪一個主題公園呢？主題公園有不同的種類，不同的公園有不同的主題，幾乎囊括了一切：食物、文化、科學、卡通、電影或歷史。有一些主題公園因為有最大或者最長的過山車而聞名，有些則展示了文化中那些著名的聲音或視覺景象。不論你喜歡哪一個，喜歡什麼，總會有適合你的主題公園。

It will bring you into a magical world and make your dreams come true, whether traveling through space, visiting a pirate ship or meeting your favourite fairy tale or Disney cartoon character. As you wander around the fantasy amusement park, you may see Snow White or Mickey Mouse in a parade or on the street. Of course Disneyland also has many exciting rides, from giant swinging ships to terrifying free-fall drops. With all these attractions, no wonder tourism is increasing wherever there is a Disneyland. If you want to have fun and more than fun, come to Disneyland!
