Today is the 13th anniversary of the grand opening of the Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris. In the past the park has often been criticised for lacking any good, solid attractions and shows, however, time has been good to the park, and with the addition of the Ratatouille attraction last year, the park has now really started to come into its own. With 18 full attractions and permanent long-term shows - six of which are completely unique to the park! - it actually currently has more attractions and permanent shows than Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park, Epcot or Disney's Hollywood Studios. While you can argue that those parks have a lot more non-fixed entertainment and good dining options, it is undeniable that the Walt Disney Studios is, finally, stepping up its game. The new Ratatouille attraction has become one of my favourites in the whole Disney Parks world, and I hope that it is a sign of the many good things to come over the next 13 years.
In our usual style, I'm going to share a cavalcade of photos from our many adventures at the park.
Happy 13th anniversary Walt Disney Studios Park!
Dan.

I visited the studios for the first time a couple of months after it opened, and last time a couple of months ago, and I can definitely vouch for how much the park has improved!!! I think they still have some work to do in improving the overall magic of the park, but if they keep the work up they will get there eventually... Happy Anniversary Studios!

Oh gosh, yes! It has improved drastically. I also visited within its opening year, and there was literally nothing there, LOL. No Hollywood Blvd (no ToT!), no Toon Studios (no Crush, Cars, Rat, Playland!), no Stitch Live, no Disney Jr... It was barren! Like I said in my original post above, it has really come into its own, and I look forward to seeing it develop further, because if Ratatouille is the new standard, then it's going to be awesome!

I love WDS, it gets such a hard time, but I think it's one of the best disney parks, it hasn't for the same "magic" as the MK style parks, but it's got some fantastic shows and rides, and has some great characters there too.
Thanks for the photos Dan, I just love them, especially the first two!

I'd still have to say that WDS is by far the worst Disney park worldwide, but if it continues expanding and improving at its current rate it should be up there with the other parks in no time. I'm still hoping for a retheming/removal of the Magic Carpets and new show at Animagique to make that corner of the park some sort of Pixar Studio.
