Mountain at Disneyland Paris is named De La Terre A La Lune. (From the Earth to the Moon).
Its themeing has been rated as the best in the world, it is based on the Jules Verne novel
of the same name. Riders are shot into space by a huge Columbiad cannon, (pictured beneath
scaffolding during renovation work, May '04) on a journey to the moon. The detailing is
second to none, there are many references to the book. This excellent rollercoaster
features loops, corkscrews & over - banked turns, whilst travelling at high speed in
the dark. Complete with on-board soundtrack, and near misses with several huge meteorites,
one you plough through the middle of - I rate this as my #1 coaster, I even got a tattoo! Click thumbnailed images to enlarge photos... |
