“Disneyland will never be complete, so long as there is imagination left in the world.” How many times have you heard that quote as a reason for closing a classic or adding an attraction somewhere that doesn’t quite make sense? The truth is, Disney Parks are organic places! For better or worse, things will always be changing; rides will always be swapping in and out; if you don’t like change, Disney Parks fandom may not be for you!
But sometimes in Disney’s rush to incorporate new attractions, add capacity, or infuse hot properties fast, we might end up with some rides that are simply in the wrong places! Below we’ve collected a list of eight attractions – both classics whose contexts have changed wildly over the years, and contemporary attractions added to existing lands. Most guests probably don’t even notice these rides “in the wrong places;” those that do probably don’t care. Do you? What other attractions can you think of that technically don’t make much sense in the lands they inhabit? Where should they go instead?
