17 Disneyland Secrets They Don't Know Want You To Know
11. The Underground Tunnels
Disneyland always looks like the most magical place on Earth because that's exactly what it's designed to look like. Strolling throughout any of the parks is like walking through an actual Disney film, with locations perfectly recreated from the movies and new environments having the same larger-than-life, super colourful quality.
Behind the scenes, however, is a very different matter. There's an entire other world beneath your feet at any Disney park, a series of interconnected underground tunnels which facilitates keeping the attractions up to scratch, making sure the streets are litter-free, and generally letting cast members hurry around the park without disturbing your day.
Actually they're not subterranean - these hallways, offices and garbage trucks were all sorted on the ground level, but the park itself was all built on top of that. Walt Disney himself was upset at the idea of, say, seeing a cowboy crossing the sci-fi-themed Tomorrowland to reach his post at Frontierland and spoiling the authenticity of the park for visitors.
It's also where cast members eat, get changed, do administrative work, and even get regulation haircuts. And unless you shell out the dollar for a special tour that includes the underground tunnels, you'd never know they were there.
