I remember seeing this movie when I was a child and remember going to Disneyland and seeing all the rides and attractions that aren’t there anymore. I going to show this to my kids and my grandkids. This brought back so many memories 🎉
I am so very happy to see this as a reminder of how magical Disneyland was back in the day. The parking lot was interesting, because the bench seats were different. I remember riding the mine train and being afraid of the falling rock. I remember seeing the dancing and culture of American Indians, before the splash of the mountain. I remember eating a tuna sandwich in Capt Hook’s Pirates ship, next to Skull Rock. I remember riding in a bucket from Fantasyland to Tomorrowland. There are so many memories, before all of the changes. It was such a great childhood memory. Thank you for revisiting this video.
It's always amazing to see the beginning years of Disneyland and you can see why Mr. Disney was so proud of it. I must say that I would've loved to have experienced the park back then especially the original Frontierland back then. It looked amazing and was full of attractions and landscaping that told a story of it's time. Thank you for sharing this video!

this is an incredible record of disneyland as it was in it's first year. i'm so used to seeing grainy home movies or black and white newsreels of opening day,and old faded still pictures. this is beautifully,professionally shot high quality in vivid COLOR! it just doesn't get any better. for those of us who grew up with disneyland in it's first 10 or 20 years it's also a way to dust off old memories of how the park looked when we were young. amazing how some parts have changed dramatically while others,like main st. usa,are pretty much the same. the aerial footage blows me away. i just want to go back and be there!
+denny11lane Think that is a bit unfair. Before this year my last visit to Disneyland was also in 1970. Now that version of it will always have a place in my heart and was amazing to an eight year old back then, but if it was still the same my teenage daughters would have been bored after one day there and think I would have been also. Instead we spent four days and we all utterly enjoyed time there. Probably better time than any of our trips to WDW due to ease of getting around and smaller crowds. Disneyland would never have survived if it relied on nostalgia alone, which is why Walt had promised that Disneyland would never be complete and would keep evolving and changing.
***** you can still ride the mark twain weeknights in late winter/early spring (before daylight saving time starts). i do remember summer night trips on it before "fantasmic" took over the river. they would even stop the boat at the back of tom sawyer island to let you watch the fireworks. fun times.

I grew up near the park and eventaully worked there. We moved to Orange County in 1969 just as the last of the farmland and orange groves were plowed under to make room for housing for the rapidly expanding SoCal metropolitan area. It's all concrete and asphalt now. Gone are the wide river deltas and prairies which only existed 150 years before. 3:24 those side-saddle trams were still in use backstage in the 1980s when I worked there to shuttle parade and band performers around.

@TheFrenchPug I can't point to where exactly it turned upside down. It was a very gradual orchestrated movement. Which - was their intent - all along, I will say. Walt wouldn't be turning over in his grave. He'd be spinning.
@d.dorough It was definitely in the Bush Era. Because we live close by and I was taking my kids a little when guys and girls that were together started freely making out in line and groping all over each other. I had distract my kids to look in other directions. While I tried not to puke. These werent "attractive" people doing this either. So, it was even tougher to turn around and see that spectacle. At that time I had no idea it had become their Safe Haven and very frequent visiting place 🌈 🏳️🌈🌈 🏳️🌈
@TheFrenchPug i Interesting. I lived in So. Cal all my life but had moved away by that time. Our last time in the park was in 2013 and we would pull the children out of school and go the first week of Dec every year, because it was a ghost town. We now have home videos/pictures to look at of a vastly different Disneyland.
@@d.dorough That is still the best time to go. Last time I went was about 6 years ago and I said I'm done with this place. They just keep charging more and more and more every year and taking away from the California passes. Most of the time the place is at capacity and parking is like $45. How do poor children get to go and experience it now? They can't.
The amazing thing about this film is that almost all of the signature attractions that people today associate with Disneyland did not exist at that point in time. Pirates of the Caribbean, the Haunted Mansion, It's a Small World, the Matterhorn, Space Mountain, Big Thunder, Splash Mountain; all of those would be years if not decades away in the future.
Indeed a mystical and inspiring land it was , to watch the parade with an exceptional ending with a band then going on a journey around the world by boat,train, horse, Truly divine.

I wish there was plenty of walking room like this, nowadays!Also, I don't recall ever seeing the old Frontierland. My first visit was probably around 1967 or so.
My first and only visit to Disneyland was in 1967 with my parents and two sisters which was 12 years after it opened. I was 19. I had been "raised" during the period of the original Sunday Walt Disney Wonderful World of Color and the daily Mickey Mouse Club TV show. All my friends ran home from school to watch! I was 10yrs old and in 5th grade. We were "hooked". We all begged our parents to travel to see the Disneyland park that they were building which seemed so compelling to our young eyes. It didn't disappoint!
My first visit was in '67 or '68 - interesting to see what was still there and what was gone. I was out of college and drove from Chicago to visit my cousins in Anaheim. I have old slides from the trip that I should dig out and look at.
In 1958, this film would be edited into TV format (and black-and-white) on the Disneyland show, under the title "An Adventure in the Magic Kingdom". Also, some of the music heard during the Storybook Land ride would be heard again in another program, the 1964 Wonderful World of Color episode "Disneyland Goes To the World's Fair".
I hope we can get back to Disney soon and I hope I will be able to get in once it open and I hope it want be a nightmare to get in. Opening day will be crazy smh.

There is a lot of stuff elsewhere about the idea that Disney at the time didn’t have a lot of IP to ground the park in shared experiences, so they decided to lean more on American History as shared history experience made up for it. It also creates the sense of nostalgia that now the Disney movies (+ Disneyland itself) can carry.
Everything was so different back then! The trees were all so tiny, and the park was barren. Frontierland was so much more epic. That land has been basically nothing my entire life. The Jungle Cruise had alligators, giraffes, and rhinos?! Where did those go? Tomorrowland had nothing interesting, but it would have been cool to ride Autopia without the middle rail. The teacups used to spin so fast! I love this video. I wish it showed the inside of the Fantasyland dark rides, though.
TopCat0601 About the Jungle Cruise thing: when the narrator said alligators, he might've meant crocodiles. They, along with giraffes and rhinos are still in the ride.
I didn't hear anything about catering to the gays, lesbians, transgenders, men wearing fairy dresses with mustaches selling princess dresses to litlle girls, or black families breaking out in fist fights in Fantasy Land over some churros or souvenirs. Where did it go wrong with Disneyland?
No Star Tours did not come to Disneyland until 1987, and of course Star Wars did not yet exist when this short about Disneyland was made in 1956. The building that now houses Star Tours was at this time, I believe, the Monsanto Hall of Chemistry.

Music is certainly stylistically similar to other scores from the 1950s. It was written by Oliver Wallace, who also wrote the music for all of the Disney True Life Adventures.
@@AtomicAgePictures - I loved all of the True LIfe Adventures. They used to show some of them at my elementary school as a reward for collecting newspapers at the paper drive.
Yes the peoplemover was installed at Disneyland when they created the new Tomorrowland in 1967, about 11 years after this film was made, and before Disney World was even built. The peoplemover was removed when they did the ill-conceived redesign of Tomorrowland in 1998.
I get teary-eyed at the end and I guess it's because it's the lovely way we could look at the world back in them olden days before we decided to be PC about it. Well, I'm off to work in produce to do all the work I've been taught "white people won't do". Have a good evening and patronize Safeway because they are a great employer for those of us who are non-PC. =)
Walt Disney must be spinning in his grave at what Disneyland has become. I was three when it opened and went there for the first of many, many times. I'm 71 now, and some of my fondest memories are of my times at the Disneyland of the 50's and 60's, and earliest 70's. Now, it's a place of mindless and incessant marketing, rude, stupid crowds (and the powers that be PACK THE PARK TO THE RAFTERS EVERY DAY IN THE NAME OF GREED-ONE CAN HARDLY WALK IN A STRAIGHT LINE FOR JUST FIVE STEPS BEFORE HAVING TO DODGE ANOTHER HUMAN BODY), horribly expensive and tastless food, and mostly boring rides, and way too few places to sit, especially in the summer in the shade, because in summer, Anaheim is pretty much unliveable. And for those of you who think Disneyland is eternal, and there's a purpose to it all, and an answer for everything, I will leave you with this: As far as Disneyland being eternal, it will be as long as the equation involving Disneyland on its 500 acres equaling big profits is true, but once that equation has a negative result, the very land Disneyland sits on will be repurposed into shopping malls, cinemas, restaurants, and high rent housing, and Disneyland will be history. Your kids will be telling their grand and great grandchildren all about what once existed on that acreage. The purpose and answer to everything in America is.......money; and the worst issues the country and its average citizens face have to do with how the most powerful amongst us ensure they have it. Enormous amounts of it.

The golden age of Disneyland, along with the golden age of Southern California in the 1950’s and 1960’s.
I wonder how people who weren't white were treated in the "golden age."
They were treated very professionally and friendly. Everyone was welcome. Just that the demographics were more Hispanic than black back then.
Sounds like the music from The Ten Commandments or Ben Hur. Very dramatic.
Music is certainly stylistically similar to other scores from the 1950s. It was written by Oliver Wallace, who also wrote the music for all of the Disney True Life Adventures.

And for those of you who think Disneyland is eternal, and there's a purpose to it all, and an answer for everything, I will leave you with this: As far as Disneyland being eternal, it will be as long as the equation involving Disneyland on its 500 acres equaling big profits is true, but once that equation has a negative result, the very land Disneyland sits on will be repurposed into shopping malls, cinemas, restaurants, and high rent housing, and Disneyland will be history. Your kids will be telling their grand and great grandchildren all about what once existed on that acreage. The purpose and answer to everything in America is.......money; and the worst issues the country and its average citizens face have to do with how the most powerful amongst us ensure they have it. Enormous amounts of it.
I didn't hear anything about catering to the gays, lesbians, transgenders, men wearing fairy dresses with mustaches selling princess dresses to litlle girls, or black families breaking out in fist fights in Fantasy Land over some churros or souvenirs. Where did it go wrong with Disneyland?
Too bad Disney went woke. My grandkids will never know of it.
