Walt Disney envisioned Disneyland as a place for people to experience movie magic.

Walt Disney envisioned Disneyland in 1955 as a place where audiences could step into their favorite movies. When Disney moved to Burbank, people sent letters asking if they could visit and see where Snow White and Mickey Mouse lived, but Disney knew that would be logistically difficult, so he thought of a way to let audiences do that, which eventually became Disneyland.
