Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo Disneysea

Another hi eveyone!
As i said in last post, i would like to post another amusement park..
And it's.. TOKYO DISNEYLAND and TOKYO DISNEYSEA!! It's another paradise on earth..
But.. what's the difference between those to place??
TOKYO DISNEYLAND and TOKYO DISNEYSEA are not really different, both of them are Disney and an amusement park.. but, TOKYO DISNEYSEA's attraction more to an water playground, but not waterboom or something.
So.. just to cut long story short, just get started :)

First TOKYO DISNEYLAND...
TOKYO DISNEYLAND is a 115-acre (465,000 m) theme park at the Tokyo Disney Resort located in Urayasu, Chiba, Japan, near Tokyo. Its main gate is directly adjacent to both Maihama Station and Tokyo Disneyland Station. It was the first Disney park to be built outside of the United States and opened on April 15, 1983.

There are seven themed areas in the park: the World Bazaar; the four classic Disney lands: Adventureland, Westernland, Fantasyland and Tomorrowland; and two mini-lands: Critter Country and Mickey's Toontown. The park is noted for its extensive open spaces, to accommodate the large crowds that visit the park. In 2009, Tokyo Disneyland hosted approximately 13.65 million guests, ranking it as the third-most visited theme park in the world, behind its American sister parks, Magic Kingdom in Orlando and Disneyland Park in Anaheim.In 2011, the park hosted 14 million visitors, again ranking it as the world's third most visited theme park.

 And next..  TOKYO DISNEYSEA!

TOKYO DISNEYSEA is a 176-acre (71.22 ha) theme park at the Tokyo Disney Resort located in Urayasu, Chiba, Japan, just outside Tokyo. It opened on September 4, 2001. It is owned by The Oriental Land Company, which licenses Disney characters and themes from The Walt Disney Company. TOKYO DISNEYSEA attracted an estimated 12 million visitors in 2009, making it the fifth-most-visited theme park in the world.

TOKYO DISNEYSEA has an overall nautical exploration theme to it. The idea for the park can be traced to a proposal to build a second theme park in Southern California called " DISNEYSEA" in Long Beach, California.However the idea was scrapped after the company endured financial trouble with the Euro Disney project. Later the idea was passed on to the Oriental Land Company to expand their resort. Unlike Tokyo Disneyland, the overall intention was to create a more adult-themed park, including faster, scarier rides and shows designed more for an older audience. By the time TOKYO DISNEYSEA opened in 2001, its concepts and designs had been in development at Walt Disney Imagineering for well over 20 years.

There are seven uniquely themed areas or "ports of call". The entrance to the park is Mediterranean Harbor, which opens up to six more nautically themed ports: American Waterfront, Lost River Delta, Port Discovery, Mermaid Lagoon, Arabian Coast, and Mysterious Island.

Food

Japanese cuisine is the food—ingredients, preparation and way of eating—of Japan. The traditional food of Japan is based on rice with miso soup and other dishes, each in its own utensil, with an emphasis on seasonal ingredients. The side dishes often consist of fish, pickled vegetables, and vegetables cooked in broth. Fish is common in the traditional cuisine. It is often grilled, but it may also be served raw as sashimi or in sushi. Seafood and vegetables are also deep-fried in a light batter as tempura.
Apart from rice, staples include noodles, such as soba and udon. Japan has many simmered dishes such as fish products in broth called oden, or beef in sukiyaki and nikujaga. Foreign food, in particular Chinese food in the form of noodles in soup called ramen and fried dumplings, gyoza, and western food such as curry and hamburger steaks are commonly found in Japan. Historically, the Japanese shunned meat, but with the modernization of Japan in the 1860s, meat-based dishes such as tonkatsu became common.
Japan has an indigenous form of sweets called wagashi, which include ingredients such as red bean paste, as well as its indigenous rice wine sake.
Japanese cuisine, particularly sushi, has now become popular throughout the world.
