Tokyo Disney Resort (Japanese: 東京ディズニーリゾート) in Chiba, Urayasu, was the first Disney theme park resort to open outside of the United States. It is the second most annually-visited theme park complex in the world, behind Walt Disney World. It is noteworthy that it is not owned by The Walt Disney Company but rather by the Oriental Land Co., Ltd (OLC).

Tokyo Disneyland's railroad makes a sightseeing trip around Adventureland, Westernland, and Critter Country. It cannot be used to travel from one area of the park to another.
Cinderella Castle at the center of Disneyland is icon and dominating feature of the resort. This is a 51-meter-tall fairy tale castle. While the cynic will notice the stark plastic construction, the castle's fascination cannot be denied by anybody who grew up with Disney style comics.
This hotel is themed to the Art Deco era of the 1930s.
An opulent Victorian-style hotel with the best view of Tokyo Disneyland on the side.
An Italian-style hotel complete with rooms overlooking Mediterranean Harbor.
The newest hotel at Tokyo DisneySea that opened with Fantasy Springs. The hotel features 419 "deluxe type" rooms in the Fantasy Chateau, 56 "luxury-type" rooms in the Grand Chateau and two restaurants.
802 spacious guest rooms each with own balcony. A nice hotel overall.

By train
As with virtually all of the rest of Japan, the most practical way of getting to Tokyo Disney Resort is by train.
By car
From the Tokyo/Yokohama region, follow the coast of Tokyo Bay to Chiba, exit at the Urayasu ramp and then go out at Route 357, go straight on the road about 1 km, and make a U-turn at Mihama Rittai…
By bus
Most visitors will have little reason to travel to Tokyo Disney Resort by bus, due to the more convenient JR Keiyo Line.
By monorail
The four-station Disney Resort Line monorail, with its spacious interiors and Mickey Mouse-shaped windows and pull straps, travels in a counterclockwise circle around the two theme parks.
By foot
If you are going straight to the parks from Maihama Station, it is probably easier and faster (and best of all, free) to just walk from the station.
By bus
The Disney Resort Cruiser is a free bus service.
